@9ethericshi@Afro_Research Ur original reply didn't say in terms of matching ancestry. It said they had nothing to do with DNA ancestry tests.Those aren't the same words.If your original point was simply that they don't perform the same function, I'd have agreed from the start.That's not how u phrased it.
@9ethericshi@Afro_Research Being a Black American and having an interest in Olmec history doesn't by itself prove direct Olmec ancestry. Ancestry claims need evidence from multiple sources, including documented history, archaeology, and genetics. Evidence please?

@9ethericshi@Afro_Research You keep explaining what you meant, but you haven't addressed what you actually said. Intent and wording aren't always the same thing. ๐คท๐พโโ๏ธ

@9ethericshi@Afro_Research Calling me names doesn't address the point. Your original wording and your current explanation are not the same claim. ๐คท๐พโโ๏ธ
@9ethericshi@Afro_Research Calling ancestry DNA "just entertainment" while accepting forensic and parentage DNA ignores that all 3 are based on analyzing inherited genetic variation.They answer diff questions,but diff applications of DNA science don't become meaningless bcos they aren't interchangeable.๐

@9ethericshi@Afro_Research ๐ If it was "just a figure of speech," you could've clarified that in your first reply instead of spending all day defending it. We already agreed the tests are different, the debate was over your wording.

@9ethericshi@Afro_Research I've agreed with that point all along. The disagreement was your original wording, not the data compatibility. If that's what you meant from the start, then we don't actually disagree on the science.
@9ethericshi@Afro_Research So we've gone from "they have nothing to do with each other" to "it's just a figure of speech." That's all I needed to know. ๐๐พ
