I think the easier refutation of “race science” is that there’s no valid, accepted scientific definition of “race”. No matter how many backward “common sense” definitions people come up, there’s always too many exceptions and those common definitions have changed constantly over time. It’s simply a construct that’s widely used, but has no basis in scientific fact. So any assumptions about “race” and inherent advantages or disadvantages are immediately suspect because they’re based on something that doesn’t actually exist (other than the effects of people continuing to believe in it).
