i have seen many people in forums claim that kurds and afghans look alike .
people seem to think that because both groups are iranic speakers that this means that we look alike . but that is nonsense . there is no such thing as "iranic look" to begin with since the iranic speakers are many different ethnic groups with many differences . for example yagnobis are iranic , balochis are iranic . tell me how they look alike . give me a break .
and ossetians are iranic too yet you will not see many people linking ossetians and kurds regarding looks even though we overlap 1000x more with ossetians than with afghans both lookwise and genetically . i have even seen some claim that ossetians are not iranic other than their language ....what the fuck does that mean ? they say that only because ossetians are closest to other caucasus peoples . but as i said we kurds are closer to ossetians than to pashtuns ....WAY closer . yet this is not taken into account . double standards much ? give me a fucking break
afghans fucking dont look like kurds . and they dont look like other northern west asian peoples either (except some individuals) . of course there are afghans who will look like northern west asian people . some afghans can even look polish like or something . but in general afghans look VERY foreign to me . very few of them could pass as my ethnicity and they look very different from us . it is very obvious
afghans have a shit ton of south asian / AASI . which we kurds dont have
afghans have a lot less early european farmer . we kurds have a lot of it
afghans have less caucasus hunter gatherer admix than us
afghans are geographically very far from us . look at a map
afghans inhabit a different natural environment / fauna than us
afghans are genetically pretty far from us . just for the record we are comfortably closer to greeks , albanians , south italians , bulgarians than to afghans . if you dont believe me i can show you
let us look into afghan and kurdish photos and compare
and nobody can accuse me of cherrypicking the afghans either because they were posted by another owd afghan on TA
