Not if it is were thoroughly. The Germans killed six million jews and
there were twenty million in the world the. They were not thorough.
Besides which cultural adaptation trumps genetic variation. The human

ice age. Culture is everything, race is nothing.

The instruments of cultural adaptation and evolution are memes, not genes.
