Passify these tajiks of Charikar, Parwan, Afghanistan. Which ethnicities do they look like to you?

Bruh. He doesn't look North Caucasian at all
Dude, even vengeance agrees with me. And he looks so much similiar to them, rofl. Whats the actual difference?

Some of these north caucasians even almost look like lighter pashtuns to me.


Is it because theyre afghans you disagree?

No dude. They don't pass well as Northern Caucasians and most of them don't even pass atypically. If a few of them passing atypically in Dagestan or whatever is enough for you to consider them as Northern Caucasian looking then that's your decision but I disagree with it

They kind of do. You exaggerate how different theyre. The 3 first men dont differ that much from a good amount of the north caucasians. I bet if you didnt even knew they were from AFG, you would assume theyre were from Azerbayjan or caucasian countries:

They do and it's not the first time I've seen afghans who could easily pass in the caucasus especially among tajiks

I meant the tajiks(who are persians).

Did you say they look like iranians the most, becuase theyre persian speakers? Becuase they dont look like iranians the most to me
well you asked about "passing" not if they looked exactly like iranians so to me they would pass better in Iran than in Pakistan, central asia or further away in the middle east and no I didn't say it because they speak a persian dialect

To me they look most similiar to these khowars from Chitral, Pakistan. Moreso than iranians(scroll down to the crowd pics i posted):

Yes you're right but correct me if I'm wrong these people are not representative of the average pakistani
