  1. DNA doesn’t show “ethnicity”, it can only correlate with some ethnic groups! The difference is huge!

  2. I hope this story was true! This man is awesome!💪

  3.  @Hatarkian I’m always shocked when I hear that someone says that Finns and Mongols have something in common! From what point does derive this bullshit? Finns - are the people of Finnic Ugoric language family with Uralic generic origin (from the moment we can observe its distinct roots). Moreover Finns population have got genetically a mixture of gaplogroups N1C1, l1, R1A and R1B with some unique subclades that we can find only within Finns. It means that Finns are partially descendants of very old population of Scandinavia! Big up from your neighbor from Saint-Petersburg! 😉 Terve, Naapurit!

  5.  @NordicWiseguy  But this kind of thoughts we can meet today too! It still exists. 🤷‍♂️

  6.  @Myyoutubeaccount8999  It means that among Javanese people your haplogroup subclade is very common, but it doesn’t mean that every carrier of this subclade is of Javanese ethnicity because DNA just correlate with ethnicity but doesn’t define it. People historically have more close biological ties within ethnic groups just because of local isolation of ethnic communities. The ethnicity is more about culture than about biology. In other words it means that your ancestors had been mostly representatives of Javanese ethnicity over a long period of time. For islanders such certainty is more common than for mainlanders.

  7.  @NordicWiseguy  There are many ignorant people today actually (among my compatriots too, of course; I didn’t want to say it only about Ukrainians, specifically; it’s all about the war and hatred, about some kind of pseudohistoric propaganda). Many years I’d been living in the illusion that people were mostly quite intelligent until the moment my friend opened my eyes! 👀 From that moment I’ve been collecting numerous pieces of evidence on that score. That’s very sad.

  8.  @NordicWiseguy  I’ve met enough people who treated it as a real fact! Many of them were Ukrainians: They call Russians - Finns or Finno-Ugric, and call Finns, in turn, - mongols. 🤷‍♂️

  9.  @yasmineadeleg793 What is wrong with you?

  10.  @aleathacoleman6413  Yes, of course! But it’s not a language and culture - the main elements of ethnicity and nation, how we define them.

  11.  @tudormiller887  Nope, haven’t seen! Thank you! I will certainly watch it! 😊

  12.  @undisputedtruth4954  I think you misunderstood the connection between contemporary toponyms and actual places, and the idea of language families. 🤔 “Turks and New Brits” - what’s about Germanic/Scandinavian, Romanesque, Slavic, Baltic people? The genetic differences between turkiс ethnicities is enormously huge by the way… from really European to evidently Asian.

  13. That is what happens when you give too much liberty to persons with mental disabilities to claim they are someone else except their factual status, when “there are” more than two genders and so on.

  14. That’s outstanding!

  15.  @rasheed7934  Don’t you know who Angela Davis is and what she was standing for?

  16.  @rasheed7934 And that is why I love USA in this regard! It’s quite unique place where the population is so genetically intertwined that it can bring no sense to the very idea of ethnic clashes and confrontation between nationalities and races (the last notion itself is meaningless due to the genetic research). I hope it will eventually be realized by the whole society!

  17.  @Myyoutubeaccount8999  Yes, you’re absolutely right! 😉

  18. I’m Russian, and I was aware about my Germanic part, but it turned out that it was - Norwegian! 😅 Don’t know how the heck it is possible but that’s a fact. Also my Bulgarian and Greek parts were a bit more surprising 😂! Had no idea! The rest of it is Northern Slavic (widespread from Poland to Russia).

  19. 🤯 We all have our contemporary culture without any “ancestor’s tradition”! Why so many people do want to have something separate and “unique” in this matter? It reminds me of theatrical masquerade! Nonsense! The culture always changes, and all cultures is a mix of some other cultures. What are we talking about?

  20. I mean it’s interesting to know, it’s important to respect your roots (and roots of other people), but it‘s kinda whimsical to seriously accept traditions and culture when you haven’t already been a part of it. People always live in culture, and this is not about our ethnic roots.

  22.  @terrencemyers1033 Nationality is an artificial abstraction, it has been existing only for 4-5 centuries.

  23. Why do you need to identify yourself as an artificial type? You are what you are: a unique person with unique history. You have to be happy that you will never become a stubborn and stupid nationalist or racist of any kind because of your “clear” origin! 😉
