96% of the Chimpanzee match. Are you 99% genetic match with a Chimp?

he most commonly used racial typology uses the major geographic migrations that resulted in thousands of years of reproductive segregation to divide into a model of 5 subspecies: Caucasoid, mongoloid, capoid, congoid, australoid. It fell out of favor in the 20th century when "humanist" social scientists adopted a position of human exceptionalism & exemption from taxonomy methods used on other animals, but made a comeback in the 21st century as it's been found to align remarkably well with modern genetic clusters & hereditarianism in general has become dominant (largely due to China taking the lead in genetic research and forcing the "PC" west to finally exit the 1970s).
You are again conflating population averages with individual traits & trans-racial clines. Of course variation within a group is greater than between averages! In regards to IQ, of course there is a larger gap between a black man with an IQ of 150 and a black man with severe down syndrome than there is between the black and white IQ averages.
This is stating the obvious and not an argument against the existence of subdivisions within our species. It's a "feelgood" headline you might see on a popular science magazine, but has no significance to the argument.
So what is your point? You need a mystical or religious explanation to exempt humans from speciation while accepting that its present in other animals.

But for the second time.
Human almost wiped out small group 100,000 years ago from that group we spread across the world. Our species only came into being around 50,000 years ago
It might seem like a long time ago to you but very short to get the variation for a subspecies. Added to that that many groups were reproducing with other groups.
Animals on the other hand, say the Bengal Tiger and the Siberian Tiger have developed for much generations in isolation. The species in about 110,000 years old but many times more generations than **** sapiens
Why are you dismissing this? Do you not understand?
