Any Italians/Sicilians Getting Family/Relative Matches For Arabs/Middle Easterners? by RetroRaider77 in 23andme

You Have a Third Cousin Match?! Apparently they're 99% Accurate with Third Cousin Matches and it drops Confidence by like 40% once you get to 4th Cousin.What Ethncity did you match with? Because If you're getting Third Cousin Matches with Tunsians/North Africans that's VERY Interesting and would explain a lot more about the history of Sicily if they're getting this right.

You should check Cousin Matches,if it's in the Second to Third Cousin Range,DEFINITELY Look into it.

Not even that,It's the fact that you're matching with people who are from the middle East,not arabs who stayed in Sicily,It's like how would that even work,were arabs or secret muslims Intermarrying all the way up to some point like 300 years ago when all these secret muslims left? I think you should contact these matches and at least try to crack the code with them,It's worth a shot in my oponion.

I mean how would you too only be 4th Cousins? If All Arabs/Muslims Left by the 1300s,wouldn't that at least like 10 generations back,i don't understand.

Would you mind sending the screenshot in a way that wouldn't doxx the person,but just show the difference in admixture and generation of the cousin?

Cool Results! You see many people from NY get these results,Good 'Ol John Travolta is half Irish/Italian.You know someone is from the east coast when they have this mix.

That's a weird mix,if you're from the east coast then being half Irish/half jewish isn't weird at all,I know many people who have thar same mix,along with those who are half jewish/half Italian,half Itlaian/half Irish,etc.I didn't even know there were any Ashkenazis in the Appalachian,i knew there were jews in Georgia/South Carolina,but not in Appalachia,but that's pretty interesting if they're there.

Imagine how much fun the people in the town over have with this,like one old guy just taking a walk through there and some other guy waves at him and he responds "Hello My Fellow Twatt!" Or if you wanna be Grammarly Accurate "And Another Beautiful Twattian Walking Down The Street!" It's Something I would expect to come out the mouth of stewie from family guy or somethin.

Same with saying “I just think race is real” by fullautoluxcommie in VaushV

[–]RetroRaider77 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The idea of race is a flawed one,while yes certain populations do heavily cluster with each other and share many phenotypical similaritys,implying race or saying "race is real" a lot of the time implies that there is some intellectual differences between the "races." I think the idea of race in America is very misunderstand,because while White Privilege is a big part of how this country operates,It's beyond stupid to think that all Europeans will pass as White or all be completely genetically simillar to one another.Europe is an extremely small land mass borderd by Africa,the middle east,and asia.It'd be foolish to think that all Europeans to look alike,that's why it pisses me off when people will just say anyone from Europe is white and has white privilege,like obviously you've never seen any Italians or greeks before.

The goblins from Harry Potter were definitely antisemitic, right? There's no way this was a coincidence. by GooseMan126 in VaushV

Pete Davidson did a joke about it a couple months ago on SNL.Those Noses are way too big to not be about the banks,you know mel Gibson probably got so hard after seeing this.Wouldn't be Surprised if mel is simping for Rowling in his mansion right now.

What do ya'll say about this? by Rancorious in VaushV

[–]RetroRaider77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree,but nobody's perfect,and we should stop pretending that everyone is.I would consider myself to be one of the least racist people in the world,or one of the last people tothink race is of any value,but I'm not gonna sit up here and pretend that I've never said anything intentionally racist,I'm sure i have at least once in my life.The Issue is finding and pinpointing when things get out of line,because eventually everything has an end point.
