Oh you say you’re white? Not according to this 19th century eugenicist
John Cracker Racist-White has determined you aren’t white. Peep the source:
Community Note: In 1855 Italian slave owner Fascism Eugenicino noted the Turk as not a white race.
Jesus fucking Christ
X, the phrenology app
dense and ponderous? wtf.
germanics, on the other hand, are a glacial yet fluffy race, while the celts are glutinous with streaks of cleverness
I’m porous as hell, someone help I’m floating
A… A what race ?!?
yellow race
While Turkish culture has inherited many attributes from their Central Asian Turkic forebears and Arab-Muslim brothers, they also share much with the Greek peoples who used to inhabit Thrace and Anatolia and are genetically closest to those European groups.
true, this community note gets rated 5 pinnochios, because, like you say, turks are 63% genetically white and 46% culturally white.
Turks are closest to native Anatolian populations with which they share in common with Greeks, rather than Greeks in particular, since those were first Hellenized as a result of Greek and Roman conquests then Turkified by Turkish ones.
RoT Turks’ ethnicity and culture cannot be separated from the history of Anatolia, which is a pitfall the Turkish govts loves to dive head first (Erdog govt also ignores Central Asian roots, but that’s another story).
Sorry racists, the federal government considers all people with Middle Eastern and North African backgrounds who live in the United States are legally defined and classified as White.
You wouldn’t call your lord and savior white jesus, born in a little town in the middle east called Bethelehem, not white would you?
This things gonna blow!!!
People in the past were racist? I didn’t know that. I’m hearing that for the first time
Only the relatively modern recent past. Racism and racialism is an invention of modernity
Longing for the days when bigotry was about the freaks from that valley over there who put cabbage in their dumplings
Hey fuck you cabbage dumplings rule
Consider your cattle rustled, pervert
“Ernm actually, you are wrong because the people have decided you are wrong! We cite a bullshit article that tells the masses what they want to be true!”
Real cool and good we decided facts are a democracy.
Twitter is not broadly representative of “the masses,” it is a heavily-curated space for fascists that tolerates people left of Mussolini only for the sake of ad revenue and subscriptions.
Misanthropy is an understandable response to our conditions, comrade, but it cannot be the lens through which we view the masses. We must love the people around us. We must build community with them and care for them. If you are surrounded by reactionaries, I’m sorry for your situation and I hope you can escape it but in the meantime, you should take heart in knowing that reaction is not representative of the masses and that the nature of people is fluid. 💚
The dialectic but it’s me vacillating between misanthropy and radical love for all mankind
can’t love anyone who won’t wear a fucking mask.
