A sheboon actually did make a massive contribution to cancer research once.

Naturally, it was through pure luck. Her name was Henrietta Lacks, and she ended up with a special case of cervical cancer wherein the cells could be extracted and grown in a petri dish.

Bizarrely, the cells are still being used. And they provide evidence for the belief that cancer cells are immortal, meaning that they can infinitely divide, whereas most of our cells in our bodies can divide 50 times.

So we have the Eternal Jew, but better yet, the Immortal Boon. She's a ludicrously successful organism long after her death because there's more of her DNA alive now than there was during her life. Hell, now there are 20 tons of her in labs around the world, and they're not going away anytime soon.

Hilariously, someone even argued that HeLa is a new species. Most scientists dismiss the idea, but probably just because it's weird. One of the arguments for HeLa's independent species status is its different number of chromosomes by comparison to humans. People have attempted to refute this on the grounds of cancer's karyotype being unstable, but that's retarded because genetic stability is not a qualifier for species status. Another argument has been a unique ecological niche (kept in laboratories). This would be hardly different from any other biosymbiosis with the only difference being that it's more complicated and requires more tech.

But this, of course, would not be the first such instance. The symbiotic relationship of humans and dogs relies on hunting technology (bows, spears etc) and constituted a similar such unique, domestic niche controlled almost entirely by H sapiens. And, like HeLa, Canis familiaris was created by mankind using another species as a genetic starting point, albeit not by the same process.

I'd be tempted to stick it in a nutrient rich pond and see how it fared, but then again, I don't want to see the world covered in dedifferentiated nigger cells.

Yes, I am aware of her. Did you know that her family is trying to sue for compensation. I will find the story about it in a second, it has been some months.

She's not out popping out babies on welfare, attacking white people, murdering random other black people... isn't this the kind of thing we WANT to see? Black people being productive members of our society?

She makes other black people look bad, can't you at least take solace in that?

Yes, I can, I can not speak for others.

Because she has a high IQ.

A lot of people will disagree with you for saying this. I for one think that black people can be productive members of society. Its the niggers that need to go.

ALL niggers are black, ALL blacks are niggers. Nigger is NOT a descriptor for behavior.

Absolutely. Wood still needs to be hewed and water carried.
