Nucleic acid here: That number, if taken from a real scientific article, isn't about the whole genome, but most likely about alleles present in both populations.
That said, I'm 100% sure this person isn't a noob philogeography/population-genetics enthusiast but rather the average kind of person eager to ignorantly talk about human phenotypes in reddit
EDIT: Holy shit the r*dditor is citing textually from the Nature news article; I understand science divulgation has to "simplify" things, but this is astonishingly stupid way of trying to explain a real scientific article, I can't believe this comes from Nature
Humans share 41% of their DNA with bananas, this loser apparently thinks south Indians and indigenous Australians are more closely related to bananas than each other.
Our results show that Indigenous Australians are not a single homogeneous genetic group and their genetic relationship with the peoples of New Guinea is not uniform.
These patterns imply that the full breadth of Indigenous Australian genetic diversity remains uncharacterized, potentially limiting genomic medicine and equitable healthcare for Indigenous Australians.
people have been trying to prove their racism is scientific for hundreds of years and completely failed but i'm sure the next big revelation in caliperology will prove the skull measurement weirdos right in the next decade or so 🙄
I fucking hate how these weirdos try to pretend their racism is scientific.
And then fail at the most basic aspect of the "scientific" part.
Bruh.
We share like 99% of our DNA with fuckin chimps. All humans share nearly 100% of the same genetic makeup that's how fuckin species work.

EDIT 2:
This is 2013, fuck off with those numbers

No surprises their un is probably transphibii af too
This shit is also having a resurgence thanks to these "DNA ancestry" websites, like 88andMe.

From research last year, for context.

High probability that some tech-freak is already training a Hitler AI on facial recognition data and reddit comments.
Hey now, they're not just racist. They read books.
