Notes -
The big difference is that Lamarckism claimed to be the only biological mechanism of heritable phenotypic changes transmission. And Lysenkoism denied the existence of immutable heritable traits altogether: with sufficiently advanced treatment you could take a zygote from a Sentinelese islander and force it to develop into an Ashkenazi Jew or even a rat.
How do "race-grievance experts" use epigenetics to support their "it's not their fault, it's our fault"? Is it "we need to coddle and pamper the disadvantaged groups for X generations to remove the epigenetic markers of trauma"?
