check the distances :D portuguese while being geographically next door to you are closer to us in the list than to north moroccans :D :D

a portuguese member on TA also told you that even iranians are closer to him than you guys ....lol


of course there is the caucasian race . many maghrebis especially berbers from the north look caucasian and ARE predominantly caucasian

european cluster ...... in a bigger scope northern west asians plot close / closest to europeans . why stop at europe ? and what about the fact that sardinians are not firmly within the "european cluster" ....dont listen to the TA guys who are like "muh yurop" and will try their best to explain their "cluster" with the aim to exclude "MENAS" from closeness to their holy yurop etc

you always say "georgians look like their neighbors" ....well those ethnicites ....turks , kurds , armenians , etc. are also similar looking to europeans . we are the CLOSEST people to europeans OUTSIDE of europe . and i dont give a fuck if anybody will give me shit for this . it is the truth . genetically AND lookwise . just check out the kurdish thread . many europeans themselves either guessed many of the people in the gallery as european or said that they pass as european easily . of course individually that is . all in all especially as groups it is obvious that we look different but it doesnt change the face that northern west asia are the closest people to europeans outside of europe

and georgians are "even more" european looking than kurds etc

but maybe we should stop with this because certain euro incels from a certain forum will think we worship them or some shit

Since you only have "distances" as argument let's get to facts directly :

We thereby demonstrated that PCA results (Figure 17-19), evaluated through clusters or distances between individuals, do not provide meaningful biological or historical information, nor can they be used to support such claims.


What matters are autosomal results ; proper ancestry not some algorithms influenced by all sorts of variables.

And overall the people you mention don't look like europeans stop exaggerating ; if I had to post all the turks, armenians and kurds I know you would say I cherrypick lol

Maybe, but not sure. Iberians might be closer to the Northern Africans, it is possible, but I am 100% sure that Scandinavians and Russians are much, much closer to Caucasians than to Northern Africans or even Semitic people from the Levant.
Obviously north africans have a long history with iberians/italians but not much with north-east europeans

yeah "reality" . because you dont like it .....

also funny that you on one hand say that europeans form a cluster and use that as an argument and now that pca plots are meaningless

i am not exeggerating . they look different from europeans because they are northern west asians but outside of europe they are the peoples who have the biggest overlap with europeans and have many individuals who can pass as european etc


i dont know what else to say . you can believe what you want man

Ok, but while I do have direct ties with other Northern Kurmanji Kurds, I have identical DNA allele matches with Kurmanji Kurds, why do I plot closer to the Sorani Kurds (from Eastern Kurdistan) then? I have nothing to do with the Sorani Kurds at all. Do you have any explanation for this?

it doesnt mean much . we are all kurds therefore we are all similar unless a "kurd" is mixed and / or not really kurdish

there are also turkey kurds who will be closer to soranis etc

like I said they are good if you want to compare between homogeneous and close populations but they are totally meaningless for "mixed" ethnicities anyway haven't you seen my gedmatch, g25 results they always show more european admixture than 90% of MENAs I don't see why it bothers you I do not pretend to be or to look european nor do I view my people as close to them it's simply factual. If you don't believe me or need more information I'll be glad to post some good papers.

only old belgian folks who think spaniards look like moroccans lol anyway I invite you to check how spaniards look because we look quite different from each other
mostly portuguese can look like moroccans. But only north coastal ones like riffians.

yeah i still think the same you can pass as atypical maybe even not that much atypical in some parts. i think you can pass better in azerbaijan than turkey.

and i think you have pseudo turanid vibe but cannot pass in central asia ofc even i cannot pass as typical one. but maybe there are some turkmen who look like you.

it really isnt. There are uzbeks with this sort of facial feauture combo, like the eyes and nose. I bet i can find some uzbek looking similiar to that guy.
probably what you saw was tajik or maybe turkmen there are many tajik consider themselves as uzbek. uzbeks are basically half asian.

Ethnic uzbeks are diverse. Some look mongolian, some look chechen, other looks pashtun or even punjabi.
Here's an uzbek taliban leader from AFG who looks similiar to Nassbean:

as i said probably they are tajik but lives in uzbekistan it's almost impossible someone who has 50% east eurasian look like this imo.

and many uzbeks lives in tajikistan and their mother tongue is tajik, like tajiks in uzbekistan and their mother tongue uzbek.

What you were refering to, when you said "there are tajiks who considers themselves uzbek", is rather nationality than ethnicity. Theyre still persian/tajik, not turkics

The example i brought up is from AFG. He's clearly an ethnic uzbek, an ethnic turkic.



Either way, its quiet possible for people with lots of east eurasian to look like the guy i posted. Here are lots of mugshots of uyghurs, an ethnic turkic group in Xinjiang who scores like often 50% east eurasian, who were detained by the chinese government. You'll see many who can easily pass as west eurasian/"caucasiod" people:
