    Genghis Khan? White.

    Xerxes? White.

    Jesus? White

    Mohammed? White.

    Sargon of Akkad? White.

    The entire population of Australopithecus? Believe it or not, white.

        literally finding it funny that ghengis khan looks pretty much exactly what wed expect him to look like based off what we can observe of typical modern mongolian men but you have to actually convince some shitass white dudes that this obvious thing is true and real

        Like anyone even seriously proposing that theory today? Those are PDX forum morons just take the Secret History telling us he was a redhead and then go straight for their “everyone was a Tocharian” usual nonsense.

          racists always be. but i really like that guy, mans so good. a video that could’ve been 30 seconds of “no” is a detailed study of all available sources extremely proving the obvious beyond any shadow of doubt. i appreciate.

          tocharians are a real bullshit thing named after a pretty discrete area in the tarim basin but some 19th century euro guy who associated them with references to tokharistan (several hundred kms south and over a mountain range) has stuck in the nomenclature without any academic support for it
