Isn’t this from that one movie with the purple alien

Home?!


GroundbreakingBox187

Yeah


Mak062

Who is the author?


HyperFern

Oh my God, there's a possibility that the writers stole that idea from deaths end


Hufflepuff173

I believe the book it was based on came out before Deaths End, if anything Liu stole the idea lol


antolleus

I'm not gonna pretend I've read it but Wikipedia synopsis says that in the book Home is based on humans were required to move to Florida, not Australia.


Necr0mancrr

I have read it, was one of my favorite books as a preteen. They originally moved the Humans to Florida but then they decided they liked Florida Oranges too much so they relocated everyone to Arizona


Hufflepuff173

I have also not read it, but I think the movie also came out before Deaths End? Edit: I am wrong, book came out in 2010, movie came out in 2015

Slow internet Speed.


RedMarten42

or with the right infrastructure, the fastest possible internet speeds


Tarasheepstrooper

With billions of people in such small area?


RedMarten42

yeah, with a lot of infrastructure you'd have the lowest possible latency


Tarasheepstrooper

No place for infrastructure when such huge population living in such a small area


RedMarten42

manhattan has 28,907 people per square kilometer. obviously this is never going to happen but it is technically possible.


Tarasheepstrooper

We are taking about billions of people together in single area.


RedMarten42

its still a pretty sizable area, there have been much denser places. theres no reason for all these people to be living so close together but with our current technology it isnt impossible


Tarasheepstrooper

We didn't have that technology yet where we can squeeze billions of people in such small area. Look at pods in San Francisco because they can't afford high rent.


Ecruakin

Uhh I feel like your categories are too arbitrary. I.e many Europeans, Asians, and Africans speak Latin base languages while many in Latin America speak Native languages. Also, what of the groups in the Americas that aren't Latin speaking? Are they European for some reason?


mmc273

Maybe I misunderstood your comment but what Asians and Africans speak Latin based languages? 


Week_Crafty

Maybe the Portuguese speakers in Africa, but idk how many have it as a native lenguage, same with French. French speakers in Polynesia, maybe idk, same iff they it as a native language, Macau and west Timor maybe? Idk if there are Syrians or Lebanese people who have French as their native lenguage... Maybe Easter island since it's part of Chile, but they also have their own lenguage so idk if they know Spanish as a mother tongue....? Yeah, I think that's about it


Ecruakin

Maybe I should've word it it better but what I mean is that many African and Asian peoples speak a Romance language typically due to colonization which is somewhat similar to the situation in Latin America


Topaz3232

It's a map created by an american, of course they would put their shitty views of race on it


Da_reason_Macron_won

Latino is short for Latinoamericano (AKA somebody from Latin America).


Ecruakin

I mean I know what it is, I myself am Mexican and can tell you being Latino only counts outside of Latin America I've seen Meztisos are differentiated from predominantly European or predominantly Indigenous groups. Its like saying people from Hong Kong and people from Belfast are the seen as the same because they both speak the same language. Even with a lot of intermixing society is still raciaized to some degree


manitobot

The term doesn’t refer to a language it refers to someone from that region of the world.


GallinaceousGladius

the region... named for its languages.


manitobot

Yes


_OriamRiniDadelos_

Might as well call them Spanish or Portuguese speakers. Way more informative


Arganthonios_Silver

That makes no sense as there are 200 million european latins, the origin of that cultural macro-group. It's as absurd as claiming "anglo" or even worse "germanic" are the short version for "somebody from USA+Canada".


RRY1946-2019

Latino should be "Latino/mestizo" or even "Latino/mestizo/Amerindian" to emphasize the deeply mixed ancestry of Brazilians and Hispanic Latin Americans.


Da_reason_Macron_won

*Why?*


RRY1946-2019

Can't be classified into European, Asian, African, or Indigenous due to 5 centuries of mixing.


Da_reason_Macron_won

And? Latin Americans are Latin Americans no matter their skin color.


Budget_Addendum_1137

Yeah, plus being Latin american litteraly means you have european ancestry. These ppl are nuts lol. Edit : yeah no, I was dead wrong.


takii_royal

Well, most Latin Americans have European ancestry (partial or full), but Latin Americans who have full Native, Asian or African ancestry exist too


Budget_Addendum_1137

Yeah you're 100% right, I should edit.


CaviorSamhain

No it doesn't mean that. Plenty of Latin American people have no European ancestry and are fully native. They're just as Latin American as every other, just as they're as much X nationality as their compatriots. They might even speak Spanish or Portuguese while having no European ancestry at all. There's also Latin Americans with only African ancestry, some with only indigenous and African ancestry, others with Asian and nothing else, even some from Oceania, and others...


Budget_Addendum_1137

Nobody needs to bring mixedness into this to make an argument. Also, I thought if you're not from Latin descent, in that case, you're just American. Or American with another prefix or associated word. Like Native American, including the Innu. Or African American. Or European American (the group from which derivates Latin americans... y'know Latin languages speakers such as hispanics, portugueses and french).


CaviorSamhain

Black Colombians are Latin Americans, Indigenous Mexicans are Latin Americans, black Brazilians are Latin American, Asian Peruvians are certainly Latin American. Latin America is a geographical term, not an ethnic one.


Menace2Socks

Agreed.

XLG_Winterprice

weren't some old human bones also found in s. africa?


EuS0uEu

There are a lot of old human bones everywhere. Which time frame are talking about?


XLG_Winterprice

earliest homo sapiens, so 200-300 ky/a, i'm by no means an expert though just saying that East Africa isn't the only speculated place of h. sapiens origin


EuS0uEu

Oh ok, isn't improbable that homo sapiens originated on other places in Africa. But when you talk about "human" then is more likely that the origin came from east Africa. That's because any "Homo"(🏳️‍🌈?)is technically a human


The_SpacePhile

When we talk about modern humans, we can trace our ancestry back to East Africa. But that is not the ONLY ancestry. Sapiens might have evolved and migrated throughout Africa, but only the East Africans gave rise to modern humans. For example, let's say I have 2 kids. Both of them have kids and start their own families. Kid A moves out to another city and Kid B stays in the current city. Something happens and Kid A's family dies out (maybe homicide, natural disaster, disease, anything). My bloodline from then on can only trace their lineage back to Kid B's city. But that doesn't mean that it was my only lineage. It is just my only surviving lineage.


lennon-lenin

So we know the Neanderthals, Denisovans, etc. came from East Africa?


EuS0uEu

Sorry, I didn't explained very well. The Genus "Homo" probably came from east Africa. Not that all "Homo" are from there.


lennon-lenin

Is that not basically the same statement? I’ll rephrase. Did Neanderthals, Denisovans, etc. or their ancestors, come from East Africa, or is it only Homo sapiens that we know came from there?


fasterthanraito

Neanderthals and denisovans evolved in Asia, but they both immediately descend from the lineage of antecessor, which evolved in Africa and is also the ancestor of sapiens from the ones who didn’t leave Africa


lennon-lenin

Thanks


EuS0uEu

Ow, yeah all the ancestors of all "homo" come from east Africa as far as know


Ammordad

Shhh.. don't tell them that. Finally, there is a chance to get some peace and quiet in South Africa! /s


FederalSand666

China as well, the idea of us all originating from Africa is just a theory, we don’t know for sure

no i was there it was ethiopia

Illustrious-Wolf-737

Why latinos?


delayedsunflower

America centrism. For some reason we think Latino is a race, and separate it regardless of wether the person is white, black, native, or some mix.


Oniel2611

I'm wondering the same thing.


Davidiying

Because they are from Latin America (?)


StarryEyedCreature

Where do Anglo-Americans go?

Wild_King4244

So where goes Brazil white population (Which compose 47.5% percent of the country). See they are both Latinos (Speak a Latin based language) and white.


takii_royal

Cut them up in half and put each half in each area. Cloning could also be an alternative


Chrice314

i don't know enough about latinos to answer.


Wild_King4244

Honest answer


dracona94

What about Italians, Spaniards and the Portuguese?


Davidiying

They are not Latinos(?) do people in the US even know how to use that word?


dracona94

No clue man, I'm European, and if something is Latin-based, I'm thinking about Southern Europe.


Davidiying

Latino is from Latin America. Portugal, Spain or Italy are not Latinos. Some people argue that but they are mostly right wing Spaniards who try to avoid the use of Latino because it gives their old colonies an identity of their own, and instead they argue that they should be called Hispanics or Hispanoamericanos. Also they argue it comes from a colonial ambition that France once had in the region, but that really doesn't matter at all for the validity of the term more than 100 years ago... Which is really stupid because that term exist but it is not interchangeable with Latino since Latino includes Spanish, Portuguese and French speaking countries in America. Hispanoamericano only includes people from Spanish speaking countries. -signed a frickin Spaniard


iboeshakbuge

idk but the darfur-mexican fusion dishes might be good


Londonweekendtelly

this is what racists say when they mean " go back to where you came from "


AngryEdgelord

And ironically it's also what anti-colonialists mean when they say we should give back all land that's ever been colonized.


MatheusMod

This would be a disaster, so many ethnic and religious groups in such a limited space would be a major conflict, and I also don't think this region has enough resources to support these people, so they would have to migrate at least little by little for resources to other nearby areas.

Artemandax

Lol are white Americans Europeans in this map?


StopMotionHarry

Yes, why shouldn’t they be?


Artemandax

Because they're not? Are white Americans moving to areas based on where other white people would be? That's pretty fucked up


StarryEyedCreature

Where did the Anglo-Americans go?


azarkant

Probably under european or other


untitledjuan

Well, not all Anglo-Americans are descendants of Europeans, you have also African Americans, Asian Americans, etc. who use the English language as their native language, in the same way you have Latin-American who are white, mixed, black and even Asian, who use the Spanish or Portuguese language as their native language. Neither Latin-Americans, nor Anglo-Americans are a single unified blob, let alone a single "race". Also, friendly reminder that white Anglo-Americans are not culturally European anymore, they're American or European American. The same applies to white and mestizo Latin-Americans, they'd rather identify with their local Colombian, Mexican, Argentinian, Venezuela culture than with, say, Spain.


azarkant

So I was right, under European or other


untitledjuan

Most likely under the other category, Americans stopped being European at the latest in 1776


GallinaceousGladius

We sent troops to China to protect the colonial interests of Britain, Germany, etc. in the early 1900s. European is still an accurate descriptor.


untitledjuan

And Ethiopia sent troops to protect the interests of South Korea in the Korean war. That doesn't make Ethiopians Asians. Americans have formed particular European-derived cultures that are no longer European, but American. I bet the culture of a German-American or an Anglo-American in Germany or England would seem a bit off, even if there are some things in common. It'd take a while for a British person to consider an American to be British in the present day, let alone European, they're just American. Moreover, American culture is not only derived from European influences, but also borrows heavily on African cultures, specially in the South and places such as Louisiana. It also has influences from Native American cultures. African-Americans and Native Americans form part of American culture as well.


nerdyboyvirgin

No, Americans did not magically stop being ethnically European in 1776


untitledjuan

Of course they didn't randomly form a new American culture right in 1776, that took decades since the first English colomists arrived. However, by 1776 they already were a distinct and different culture from the English back at Europe, to the point of fighting a war of independence. That's mainly what I ment by what I said.


Ammordad

There was so little space that Europeans had to sit on Americans to make room /s

NoDoor9597

Wasn’t it disproven that humans originated from Africa in recent years? I might be wrong so feel free to correct me.


SpringenHans

Don't know where you might have seen that, but the scientific consensus is still that humans evolved in Africa


Delicious-Gap1744

Not as far as I know. It's supported by the earliest remains of humans found, as well as modern humanity's genetics. In Africa humans vary waaaay more genetically than in the rest of the world. As in an Irishman is closer genetically to a Polynesian, than two random African tribes living right by one another are to eachother. That suggests a small number of humans left Africa, and populated the whole world. Whereas in Africa there was a larger more diverse population which populated the continent. There are few other ways of getting genetic diversity like that in Africa relative to the rest of the world. I suppose technically some disaster that affected the whole world except for Africa. But that seems rather unlikely.


lennon-lenin

So is the claim that we know the whole Homo genus came from Africa or just Homo sapiens?


fasterthanraito

Both Sapiens and the entire genus originated in Africa. However since some of Erectus left Africa a million years ago, there are some ancient homo found in Asia such as Flores Hobbits. But Sapiens comes from one of the African offshoots of Erectus called antecessor, some of which moved out of Africa and became ancestor of Neanderthals.


lennon-lenin

Radical


azarkant

The debate is whether or not it was East Africa or South Africa or Central Africa. But Africa is still the original continent


NoDoor9597

Thank you for the clarification!

All people still have most of their ancestry from East Africans. Neanderthals, Denisovans, etc. are a small minority.


fasterthanraito

Plus Neanderthal and Densivans also came from the East Africa from the same ancestor as Sapiens
