How long until ethnicity is no longer a thing?

At some point there will be enough genetic mixing that no one will be all asian or all black or all white? How long until we're all some shade of tan? Will that finally be the time when there are no more racial tensions? What are the implications for culture? Will it be lost and homogenized?
 
According to The Time Machine... never. There will be the pure white man and everyone else will be brown-ish. Holy shit, now that is a racist movie.

Never. Isolation and genetic divergence are the norm.

Wait until it becomes possible to use your 3d printer to make sperm.

Jam thumb(drive?) into USB port.
Send genetic profile home.
Print sperm.
Babby is formed.

not likely. India and China accounts for about 35% of world population and they don't really do interracial.

Exactly. People envision some sort of coffee colored race of all humanity in equal parts, but white people are less than 8% of the world right now. If everyone mixes, white genetics are not going to be well-represented in the resulting uni-race. And as you said, some groups are very homogeneous still and staying that way. They're also VERY populous.

This is part of why I question the one way street of immigration to traditionally white nations (Europe, Australia, US, Canada) - I can think of no other race besides Native Americans, off hand, whose future existence is not assured. There is no danger of Asian genetics, Arab genetics, black genetics, or South American native genetics disappearing. These groups are all very well represented and have healthy, high birth rates in at least some of the places they're found. They all have a "base" from which they flow out into other areas.

Whites are voluntarily giving up that base and have birth rates in the tank (below replacement) basically everywhere they're found. Japanese are in the same situation, tragically, but people of very similar genetics (Chinese) are representing them (sort of) at least. And again, whites are approaching only 5% of the world population after being a full 3rd of it in 1900.

And I thought we were supposedly valuing diversity? Isn't everyone mixing into one group the death of diversity? Isn't whites being absorbed (but every other group basically remaining intact) a loss of diversity?

I appreciate the diversity. So hopefully never.

Bingo.

I'm not disparaging any racial group, btw, I would just like to see them all remain intact. With a healthy homeland (or group of homelands) where their culture, traditions, and genetics are assured into the future. I only see one group in danger of losing that.

Ironically, a couple of years ago I was very much in favor of the "let's all mix into one race to end racism" meme. I just realize now I wasn't considering some relevant things about that.

Humbug. The sooner the better. Then we'll have to resolve our social and economic problems instead of blaming racism, reverse racism, take-your-pick-ism, whatever. As far as the death of culture goes, also humbug: my great great grandkids might not look like me, but you don't have to be Italian to make decent tomato sauce or like opera.

So I'll help you out. I wouldn't normally make this offer, but if you bring me three fertile, healthy, non-caucasian women who are down for some breeding, I'll... well, I mean, it'll be difficult, but I'll do what I can to aide the cause.

Race is convenient because it's obvious. Assuming everyone had identical makeup, take-your-pick-ism would be the gripe du jour. There's always something to bitch about, and it's always someone else's fault. Homogeneity will fix nothing.

I also like that there's distinct places in the world where people look different, and they do different things. It keeps things interesting, and it leaves an escape route if things suck where you're at.

Never, "everyone will be brown eventually" is a librul fantasy of how the earth would look after their diversity campaign (aka White Genocide) is complete.

As long as the government doesn't discover the gingers in my breeding camps, and as long as my "children" do not stop my project, never.
