"Imitations of the series" contains obsolete racial classification
[edit]In the "Legacy and controversies" category, under "Imitations of the series" is contained this text:
"[...] two notes written with Latin characters stating "Watashi wa Kira dess" [sic], a mis-transliteration of "I am Kira" (私はキラです, Watashi wa Kira desu),[157] were found near the partial remains of a Caucasian male in Belgium."
It also links to the "Caucasian race" page, which itself states it to be an "obsolete racial classification of humans based on a now-disproven theory of biological", correctly so. The term is a misnomer commonly used to mean "white" in some Western countries, but it has other meanings in other countries, and as a Russian, my first thought and impression was that the remains were of a person of Caucasus background (which would probably be very difficult to figure out from just decaying thighs).
However, while the news article mainly refers to it as human remains, of human origin and as male thighs, it does at one point say they belonged to a man "de race caucasienne (blanc)". But does this justify using that misnomer in the article? Or would it be better to refer to it as just being male/human remains? I'd like to hear what you think. — Drunk Experiter (Kanni, she/her) (talk) 18:00, 26 December 2024 (UTC)
No indication that light killed the fbi agents
