    Default Is the White race a biological reality or a social construct?

    If it's a biological reality, who belongs to the White European race? People of wholly European descent or others with some non-Euro admixture?

    Social construct based on (few) biological aspects regarding phenotype.

    Social construct . Are we meant to accept that a Greek islander is closer to a Norwegian in every term ranging from culture , environment , phenotype , genetics , history compared to a levantine or Turk, only because they fit within the "European " spectrum ?

    Fyi using Greek is just an example . Same applies to other groups . For instance I would hardly believe a Bulgarian or Albanian has more in common with a Irish than a Turk . I mean come on .

    It is easy to sort out European from all other people by genetic tests. IDK if this is an answer to your question

    Don’t you think that is very stupid thing to say? What makes you say that “only Germanic” nations are White. Due to the fact the palest-skinned nations are Celtic ones and the blondest-haired nation is Finnic! So how are Germanic people the only Whites?

    The whitest nations are the Anglo -celtic folks . As someone who is born and bred in the British isles I can vouch for that . Scandos are very blonde while having s large portion of people who are naturally tanned . Germanic nations such as Germans , Dutch , Belgians , Danes are a close second . Eastern Europeans such as poles , Russians , Lithuanians etc are also very pale .

    Finnic people may be a bit lighter than Germanics, but they have a mongolkic component.
    The Germanics are equally light, but they lack this mongolic component.
    In my opinion White nations are Dannes, Frisians-North Germans , South Scandinavians, and British, all other Europeans are Europids(which means having European facial features, but to be called white, a nation must have orewhelmlingly(in up to 90%) pale skin.
