Cher is Armenian. The Kardashians are Armenian. Dude, they're white.

If an ethnic group speaks an Indo-European language, they're "white". As has been said, that's everybody from the red-haired Irish to the dark-haired people of northern India. Irish and Hindi are both descended from the language of the same Indo-European tribe who lived on the eastern European steppe 6,000 years ago. Yes, Hindis mixed with the dark Dravidians of India, thus they're not 100% "white". But Armenians are.

It's not as complex as you're trying to make it. We can trace racial origins through language.

no they are not. white is not about skin tone. only europeans are real whites. you dont call east asians whites just because they have pale skin right? same with caucasians. they are their own race which is closley related to arabs. you can argue as much as you want but it wont change anything

Did you even look at the link? Educate yourself, fool.

I already proved to you through language that Irish and Hindi are all descended from the same people, the Indo-Europeans. Only albinos have white skin. "White" is just a slangy term for Indo-European.

Black people can be Caucasians too.

In the 2020 USA Census, you could identify yourself as "White, Nonhispanic" and then list countries of your ancestors, including Egypt and Lebanon.
