I'm confused about race. Which (if any) of the following groups are white, and why/why not?

Jews
Slavs
Magyars
Italians
Spaniards
Frenchmen
Germans
Brits
Persians

they're all caucasoid but that's a skull classification, skin color may vary
so if we go by lack of melanin on skin, only Brits, Frenchmen and Germans are white

You must believe that the white race was born in america too... .

SOCIAL CONSTRUCT

>>58349653
It really is

There is very little biological basis for something like distinctive races of humans
>>
>>58349726
Is that actually true? I thought the "race is a social construct" thing was leftist BS. I haven't gotten around to looking into it.

daily reminder that if your country isn't grey on both maps, you're not white
>>
>>58349768
People make up more races than there actually are, and people often confuse species with races.

A race becomes a specy when they can't breed with eachother anymore. Obviously all humans can still breed with eachother.

But there really are only 3 races: Mongoloid, Negroid and Caucasoid.
The rest are ethnicities.

Though some people argue that even the difference between Caucasoids, Mongoloids and Negroids is too small to call it races.
>>
>>58349768
It's outdated concept, but it's visible to naked eye

Africans are much more genetically diverse than other ''races''

There is no scientific basis (only cultural) for catogorizing humanitiy into races

All of them are usually white. Although a ton of Persians and Mizrahi Jews are brown

>>58349909
>there really are only 3 races: Mongoloid, Negroid and Caucasoid
if you go by skull classification
some go as far as adding Capoid and Australoid

cool, was he born in Czech Republic or earned his nationality as an adult?
>>
>>58349768
Differences exist between groups but they don't really correspond to our ideas of race

A Kenyan and a South African are more different genetically than an Englishman and a Maori
>>
>>58349213
"White" is a by word for European so all that you listed except Jews and Persians are white.
>>
Slavs are Eurasian
Caucasoid-Mongoloid hybrid race
>>
>>58350003
Negroid, Caucasoid.. Is there any scientific basis to these? Or just a /pol/ meme. I've tried look for scientific papers but can't find any.
>>
>>58350079
Phrenology is meme science since catergorizing everyone based on physical similarities is pointless.

yeah there's some forensic anthropology books going around but of course everything is taxonomical
>>
>>58350079
I honestly don't know.
But humans are already very hard to classify since everybody already fucked everybody from different races.

I mean, Finns are Mongoloid, but are they really genetically closer to a Vietnamese and a Native American than to a Swede?
>>
>>58350198
What is it Americans do not understand about half casts?
Yes people who are 1/4th something and 3/4rd white are white.

Idk why that one is hard to understand.
>>
>>58350255
He was half Armenian and half Persian.
>>
>>58350238
>since everybody already fucked everybody
oh yeah this too. isolation causes race [citation needed tho]
>>
>>58350314
then he is a half cast....?????
>>
>>58350003
no he is local, everyone here is a nigger because only germanics, anglos and frenchies are white. >>58349318

I learn something new everyday, thanks Australia!

Anyone can be white if they are fucked by enough white people.

Exactly. That's probably the last field where it's still used

are you upset somewhat?

>>58350465
"phrenology" mention made me laugh
just on the morphology of bones forensic scientists can determine which race was the deceased. that's gotta count on something
but the definition of "white" depends on skin color mostly

>>58350238
they are related to siberian not mongols
>>
>>58350817
Was that a very nice thing to say?
>>
>>58349909
The mongoloid/caucasoid distinction is imaginary.

Scientifically humans should be lumped as:

>Andaman
>Australian-Melanesian
>Bantu/Central African
>Congolese Bushman
>Eurasian
>Khoisan
>Negrito
>Southern African
>West African

Shut your fucking ass white boy, watch what you are about to say before you spill your shit on average central european negro thug like me.
I would take a cab to Paraguay and slice your fucking neck if I knew where Para-what is, you nazi ass retard.

>>58350985
it'd be nice if you cited your source but because i didn't i don't have the right to complain
it's interesting that people notice lots of differences among african skulls but the "eurasian" variety is small. could you say that it's because eurasian ethnicities have been in touch for over 20000 years while african ethnicities have been isolating themselves and warring among each other for the same amount of time?

I was speaking about genetic distance rather than skull shape. So-called "race realists" tout skull shape as some massive factor in human variation, but it's not any more significant than skin tone or hair color.
>>
>>58349768
No it most definitely is true. Take an anthropology class sometime, it's very eye-opening.
>>
>>58349948
Then they're not Persians. Ethnic Persians are white. A lot of Iranians say they're Persian mistakenly, thinking its synonymous with Iranian when it's not at all.
>>
white = what I like
>>
>>58349213
Two definition of white. A) Caucasoid race and B) of European descent.

If you mean by skin tone:
>Jews
Ashkenazi and some Mizrahim. Mizrahim are the closest thing to original Jews and Israelites.. Ashkenazi are basically just southern European at this point
>Slavs
Obviously
>Magyars
Pretty much yes
>Italians
Northeners yes, Southerners, not quite. The whole North vs. South thing is not a meme. I've seen Indians who are whiter than Sicilians.
>Spaniards
Mostly yes
>Frenchmen
They're Anglo-Saxons so yes
>Germans
Only the Germanics, not the Turks
>Brits
Same as the frenchies
>Persians
I'd say half and half. There's a lot of mixing between lower castes so who the fuck knows. Iranian phenotypes vary greatly
