@DeceptiveStrkr@donatewatter Ok. Let's say I agree with that statement. The groups that look Somali like the Masai (some), Tutsis, Sudanese, Afars, etc should not be considered blk? Im sure everyone considers Tutsis/Afars as blk. So why do some of you guys have a problem with this?
@DeceptiveStrkr@donatewatter Thats also true for a Khoisan and Pygmy. They are very far from West Africans. Nigeria alone has more diversity than Europe. So are some Nigerians not blk? Europe is one of the least diverse out of all the continents and Africa is the most.
@TetaOut_@DeceptiveStrkr@donatewatter Honestly I would've used those groups, but they always say they (Massai, Tutsi) are part Eurasian so I used West Africans. He still said they are Eurasian too lol. I can't seem to win.
@DeceptiveStrkr@donatewatter But you get my point. This field is new and there are very few ancient Somali/ northeast African samples which was the same problem ancestry dna had at the time. In the future it can also be corrected. Until then, we are more nilotic (55%)than not so we are blk
@TetaOut_@donatewatter Sxb macrobia is literally called Aethiopia. The far side ports are considered Aethiopia. Anything below Egypt was Aethiopia. Somalis had many names including bilad al berber, bilad al xabash, bar saad ad din, etc. But they were always part of billed Sudan but we weren't zanj
@icekristella@Theybannedme4@ScionofCulture Our closest friends in the continent are black like Sudan and Muslim Eritreans. Are we really going to deny SUDAN is black? I agree with you that Kenyans and Ethios aren't out allies but hate exists between all races. Ỳaḥűůd Slavs and Rọmªs are hated by other cadaans.
@DeceptiveStrkr@donatewatter There are plenty of Fulanis, Tuaregs, Hausa, Sudanese, 🇳🇪, and others that look like us. I literally know a South Sudanese guy that works with Somalis and everyone thought he was also Somali. We do look different but not radically different. Thats normal. Races have variety.
@DeceptiveStrkr@donatewatter Im talking about "ancestry dna" considered Somalis 50/50 Bantu and Arabic. 23andme corrected that and made Somalis 95%+ African. So Im saying that we are now ancestrally 50/50 Eurasian and Nilotic but that can also be corrected in the future. Hope that makes sense.
@DeceptiveStrkr@donatewatter Btw, they found an ancient Kenyan from 5-7k yrs ago that has similar DNA to Somalis. What is a half Eurasian doing all the way in Kenya all that time ago. Just saying. We are our own block like Nilotes n NGCng. Ancestry Dna had us at 50/50 while 23andMe has Somalis at 95% African
@Theybannedme4@ScionofCulture Exactly. Idk where these weirdos come from. I was shocked when I first met them. They're making us look like the Dominicans of Africa.
@DeceptiveStrkr@donatewatter You can be a biracial if you want to be. Don't drag us all down with you. Imagine being a proud mongrel. Secondly, even if we accept your nonsense, the ancient Eurasians components would've come from dark-skinned ppl. Somalis are ancient and we are not a random mix
@DeceptiveStrkr@donatewatter Black comes in different types. Khoi San are not the same as others but they are still black. The Pygmy population in the Congo are also black despite being distinct. Somalis are also distinct but we're part of the black family. That is common sense. Africa is the most diverse
The UAE, Ethiopia, Israel and their regional partners are increasingly encroaching on the entire vulnerable population of Sudan.
This is bigger than a proxy war.
The world needs to pay attention.

@fgelana@FCB6O Im from Puntland. No one wants to leave Somalia 🤣
SL is still part of Somalia and they will remain so.
Tigray is leaving and the Somali region is quietly waiting for its opportunity. Bye bye 🇪🇹
