      They just throw out the rationalization that Jesus appears to people in their own form or some shit. Nevermind he hasn’t appeared in a few thousand years.

      What I find incredibly racist and chauvinistic is that if you look for “what color was Jesus” a large chunk of the returns are “Was Jesus actually (black, brown, some other skin tone than white)?”

      These people start from the White Jesus and ask if a man from 2200 years ago living in the Middle East was some other color than white. Nah.

    It’s mental that people think Greeks were blonde haired with blue eyes, while Hispanics (and up until recently Italians and the Irish) didn’t even qualify as white.

      Look, a thousand or so years before that, god had realized that even if he personally impregnated some dark little middle eastern girl without her consent, the best he could hope for was a light skinned son with brown hair. It was so disappointing that he didn’t even notice when they tortured the boy to death. Heck, when the little fucker showed up all unexpected at gods front door, god was so surprised that he accidentally drove his soul back into the corpse and reanimated it. What a mess that was! That little brown haired zombie bastard running around scaring the hell out of people… lol.
      Anyway, fast forward a thousand years and god had realized that if he wanted to reset the color palette on the human race, he was going to go west a skosh and start with something a little lighter. That worked out pretty well at first but eventually turned into its own complete mess.

      Look the ancient rom- I mean greeks were bronze, that’s a totally different color from hispanic. Unfortunately bronze doesn’t exist anymore and all the scrolls were written in black and white so we can never verify this.

    Some greeks supposedly were blond. They used the term xanthos, a term meaning golden, yellow, or light brown/auburn hair.

    The greeks of today aren’t necessarily representative of what the greeks back then looked like.

      Yes, but when the ancient Greek describe “blonde” they aren’t referring to the same colors we associate blonde with. Alexander the Great’s hair was said to be xanthos… Contemporary depictions of him are with light brown or chestnut colored hair.

      The greeks of today aren’t necessarily representative of what the greeks back then looked like.

      Yes, because a lot of Greek people have some Slavic lineage in their family history and are lighter skinned than ancient Greek would have been.

        Yeah, I think a lot of people underestimate how blonde some Scandinavians are. I had that realization when my school went to France, and I realized that almost every single one of my classmates was “blonde” by the French definition, while I had previously thought that only a couple were blonde with the rest being auburn, light brown or chestnut. The “straw” colored hair that gets white in the summer is kinda rare in teens and adults, even among Scandinavians.

          I guess it would fit better in more of the globalization category? The bulk of the Slavic migration into Greece and Macedonia happened as a result of the effects of the Justinianic plague which caused the Byzantine empire to retract.

      Why they chose two pictures? No fucking idea.

      First one is like the stupid promo tiktok for the business/for her own tiktok, second one must be an Instagram post or maybe someone met her and went “you’re the lady from tiktok!! Can I get a picture?”
