LOOK AT THIS MOTHER FUCKER AND TELL ME THAT HE ISNT WHITE!!! Race obviously is a social construct but despite the fact that Persians have white skin in America they are “Brown” because they are Muslim, the same goes for Kurds, Turks, Azerbaijanis, and Pashtuns. It’s not just Muslims either but it also goes for Spanish speakers, I remember there was an episode of the Simpsons where they were making fun of Fidel Castro and they didn’t color his skin yellow.
MENA are counted as white in the stats and gov, some retard mutt on /pol/ telling you that you aren't white isn't the same thing as all of America, you didn't need to make a thread to bitch and cry about it.
>>2583533There are plenty of east asians who have paler skin than mine and im probably the blondest white mf on this board.
>>2583536Swede/Norwegian/Finn/Baltic/East of East Germany/South of South Germany?
>>2583537Lets just say Nordic.
>>2583533tbf khamenei is really old and old people of all races become lighter
>>2583550Isnt he related to Mohammed? Could be the case of aristocracy being different shades lighter like with the Spanish monarchy.
>>2583538Makes sense your mongoloid and eastern (but not far east) admixture makes you tan better than most anglos, celts, and Belgians to Dutch near continental Europe.
>>2583559he is a sayyed like millions of iranians, yes but i think that's rather meaningless. he must be like less than 1% arab by this generation.
>Could be the case of aristocracy being different shades lighter like with the Spanish monarchy.probably because in iran and the rest of the middle east there's still a lot of manual jobs that requite you to be outside in the sun whereas khamenei is an old man that likely spends almost all his time indoors.
he used to be more tanned when he was younger.
>>2583568Anglos and Germans are complete mutts compared to Nordics. Its not even a fair fight. But gingers are their own peculiar mutation and they are very common in Nordic countries too.
I'm white as the driven snow and crackers think I'm muslim because I have a big nose and a beard.
>>2583591sounds like you see yourself differently than other perceive you
skill issue
>>2583591Like OP said this skin colour based race categorization doesnt make any sense outside colonial slave societies like USA.
>>2583536I'm ginger and I swear I've seen east Asians paler than me, I think the difference is that they avoid the sun at all costs and take injections and cosmetic products to make them whiter whereas I couldn't tan even if I tried
>>2588526what race were native europeans before white race was invented by the british not so long ago?
>>2588526exactly my point in other threads. Jewish identity existed long before white identity. Jewish supremacy is more likely to be thing just from the shear time it exists
>>2583533You must understand that to racists race isn't a scientific theory, nor does it really attempt to be. It's about feels about who is us and who are them. Whiteness is open concept on purpose, just to include or exclude anybody when the political situation demands it. All the attempts at systemic classification of racism or race theories end up self contradictory or meaningless because the point of them is to serve the feel by giving it rationalist and authoritative veneer, not to do science. If you attempt to make any sense of it, you are just playing their game.
>>2588718>the idea of a unified "white" race is entirely a product of the 20th centuryNo, its a product of the late 17th century. By then colonial records in Virginia recorded "Whites".
>considering italian-americans and irish-americans were still second-class citizens not too long agoItalians and Irish were considered "the negros of the whites", meaning they were still considered white even if ultimately inferior to other whites.
>>2588511Koreans are just naturally light skinned. It's sun exposure during the summer and manual labor that makes a lot of Koreans look darker. I know several Korean people who live in countries closer to the north than SK and they are pale af.
>>2588709According to ancient Greece, Europe was just Greece, according to Romans, it was Italy and Greece, Northerners were called milkies.
>>2588931>Irish are the palest Europeans but were seen as subhumans because of the constant conflicts they had with Anglo-Saxons well, more because they lost them and got colonized
>>2583533>Persians have whiteYou have to go back
>>2588709the big-cock-having moors obviously
read a history book
>>2588921Yep
Greeks considered the greek/balkan area to be Europe, they considered 'asian turkey', that is Anatolia, to be 'Asia', and North Africa to be 'Lybia'. They knew of India and China but considered them distinct from 'Asia'.
As for the Germanoid lands, the Greeks simply did not give a fuck about them. The musty anglo racists never faced this reality, they shoehorned themselves as being part of 'Europe', when the Greeks did not even think about them. Inconsequential barbarians.
