White skin ≠ ‘white’ necessarily

[Kess]

I love how non euros always have an opinion on who’s white and who’s not lol

You should learn from your cousin, Ugo. Yeah, I remember you were above his %40 EEF margin by %1 or %2, unlike me and him. But you are a Belarusian. Embrace your EHG. Don’t identify yourself with EEF terms. Remember that CHG+EHG created a country with a space program. CHGs are not your enemies.

Sure, "Eur" + SW Asia...

Sounds quite offensive for Basques putting them in the same group where ethnicities like "Syrians" and "Iranians" are also present.

It is not offensive. Don't be silly. It is not a contest who is the most "based" here.

It might be not offensive, but still nonsense.

A lot of people, mostly of Mediterranean, Middle Eastern or Jewish descent, claim whiteness by giving examples of their people with white skin. But facial features are more important:











They all have white skin ^ but their facial features are distinct. I’d easily be able to tell their ethnicity just by looking at them.

The original term "White people" was strictly allocated to people of European descent. I stick with it. European Jews may be called Whites or pass as Whites. As they've been mixing with Europeans for centuries and some cases at least a millennium.

If you are native or your origins are from the following:
(i) British Isles
(ii) Scandinavia
(iii) Finland and the Baltic States
(iv) the Low Countries and Germany
(v) France, Switzerland, Liechtenstein, Austria, Hungary, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Poland, Ukraine, Byelorussia and Russia
(vi) Moldova, Romania, Serbia, Croatia, Slovenia, Bosnia-Herzegovina and Serbia
(vii) Portugal, Spain, Monaco, Italy, Albania, Macedonia, Bulgaria and Greece

I know some are going to react to the way arrangement. Please relax. If your origins hail from any of these lands. You are White. Other lands near Europe possess Caucasoid people. Nevertheless, they cannot be regarded strictly White in the same sense as the Europeans. Caucasoid doesn't equal White in its original meaning. Whites are just an offshoot of the greater Caucasoid line. It is only later for practical reasons, that every Caucasoid was included in the White group. This is especially when Whites especially those from Western and Southern Europe attained a dominant role in the whole world.

Is that an established consensus?

It was for British people only at first.

It wasn't. It never has been. From the beginnings of racial taxonomy in the 18th century it always broadly referred to Europeans.

American racial classifications like white, purple, green, yellow, black are funny at best. I never understood why Europeans imported this stupidity.

Honestly, 19th century European Taxonomy made much more sense than the 21st century American colorism.
