    I don't think the exact DNA matters much. It depends on how people look and are seen. It also depends a little how people self-identify and present themselves. Then again, I might not be the best source.

    I agree with this.

    White means Germanic.

    You can find white skinned people in Asia as well.

    No it doesn't, it was first used by Spaniards and later by Brits and French. It has nothing to do with Germanic.

    No normal person cares about percents. Its pretty simple. If your family is white, act white, and look white, then you’re white. Im technically around a quarter Middle Eastern, plus some minor Amerindian and SSA, but everyone in my family has been listed as white in the census since there was a census. We have a binary racial system, meaning you’re either white or you’re not. Its sorta like Latin America, but its also significantly different. Mestee groups back in the day had to literally pick a side before the one drop rule came into practice.

    We don't really. Blacks, East Asians, and Latinos don't think of one another as members of one overarching non-white group.

    But there is a sense of us vs them, at least from what Ive observed from living and growing up as a minority in a black majoroty area.

    I'm not denying that. But, to a lot of black people, just blacks are the "us" and Latinos and whites and certainly East Asians are the "them" and same for those other groups. All the non-white groups don't necessarily see themselves as unified as one half of a binary.

    This is true, but to whites its just really white and not white.

    I agree that it depends on the admixture and how you look.

    Take for example this girl that took a DNA test (among other ladies) on a YouTube Channel. She scores (surpirsingly) 17.3% East Asian and Native American, which breaks down into 14% Native American. She clearly looks white and European, dispite the fact that she scores only 79.5% European.

    Go to 10:00 for her results
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=39qDQ0chwOk

    What do you think? For me she is white.
