The Amish are not just white, they are pretty much entirely German or Swiss German. But they are their own group now, after several centuries. I oversee the spreadsheet by the way. Without me a lot of references wouldn't be on the list.Quote:

No Azeris in Iran are not considered or called Azerbaijanis by the general science. They are simply called Azeris. Azerbaijani refers to people from the Azerbaijani country. Stop flip flopping with arguments.
I do not agree with Zoro you guys are not clowns. You are the entire Circus. I had my suspicion about you since the very first days but tried to stay friendly. But fact of the matter is you guys are like mental spastics.
And you even once unintentionally revealed yourself to me as not being what you claim to be. You are either from Turkey or have lived for a long time there.
I don't know what the Hell is wrong with Leto but the way how he runs to your rescue and generally seems to have a fettish for Turkish or Turkic things makes me wonder if he and you are in some kind of romantic relation. But I am not going to sit here and watch how two weirdos keep on falsifying data about Kurds and ignore advanced science from the likes of Zoro because apparently they have no clue how it works.
Now stick your friendly character up somewhere else and show your real face.
They are still considered US Americans though. The point is valid. Being endogamous does not make you a different ethnicity.Quote:

Are you even a Russian or why the hell are you being such a cuck to Turkic theories?
I am not going to waste my time further with your shit either.
I don't know what the hell is wrong with you or why
We're in a Western forum. We stick to classifications established by western academics. If you don't like it create your own Kurdish based calculator/website. You clearly lack knowledge about Azerbaijanis in the first place (wait for Iranian members agreeing with me rather than with you.) What you don't seem to grasp that being "tork" (referring to the language you speak) doesn't neglect the fact of being Iranian. This simple concept you don't understand apparantely.Quote:

Stop acting like you know shit Kyp. You ignore Western classifications if they are against your ideas and ideology and if they fit your taste then certanly they are the reference?
Just stfu and reveal yourself and your true intention. I am sick of your passive-aggressive bullshit and your false act of kindness.
Turkic cuck? What the fuck are you talking about? Yes, I'm Russian and in Russia the Azerbaijanis are 100% a separate ethnic group. At least for the last 100 years, I know that before Stalin they were called Türk. The Russians in the 19th century referred to them as "Transcaucasian Tatars".Quote:

When a majority of modern Azeris (not Azerbaijanis) in Iran would call themselves Persian. You can't have it both ways. Either one or the other. Using different standards is not scientific.Quote:

Listen, I have no strong opinion on the Zaza or Yazidis, so I don't really care what they are called in the spreadsheet. I don't think Azerbaijanis in Iran call themselves Persian. I studied a bit of Persian in the past and as far as I know the main civic nationalist identity over there is irani, not farsi. Southern Azerbaijan is part of the modern IR of Iran, so calling them Azerbaijani wouldn't be wrong IMO.Quote:

@Demhat referring to yourself as Persian is just what you would do outside of Iran. Not even Persian-speakers refer to themselves as Persian in their own language. The binding identity is Iranian not Persian. Claiming Azerbaijanis identify as Persian is outright ridiculous. Now it doesn't mean that they don't identify as Iranian.
Have you ever heard the term "Man farsi'am"?
But this is what you as a Pan-Kurd wouldn't understand.
