I think that we should take both states down with one hit

i sent this meme to 7 people, and 4 of them asked me to translate for them. i legitimately do not think that was necessary.

So this idiot decided to write out all this nonsense then block me so I wouldn't even be able to see it which is a choice.

1) Scandinavians like Norwegians, Swedes, etc are NOT Indigenous to Scandinavia, and even the smallest amount of European historical knowledge would tell you that. Sámi and Karelians are the Indigenous peoples of the Arctic Scandinavia and Kola Peninsula. And no, historically these people, esp Sámi were not that pale so that's just ahistorical and I bet this idiot doesn't even know who the Sámi are.

2) "Mongolic" 🤮. Siberians, Mongolians, Chukchi, etc all can sometimes be pale and sometimes are not. There's literally so many darker skinned Arctic Asians esp with the Chukchi.

3) I actually never said "pale skin" in my original post. I said "blonde hair blue eyed white people" because there aren't any Indigenous Arctic people who are universally considered "white" and blonde hair and blue eyes are really uncommon in the Arctic.

4) You claimed that lighter features are advantageous in the Arctic when actually they are not. Actually scientific research shows that due to the Arctic having near constant sun exposure for half the year means sunburning is esp easy esp if you have less melanin, including in the eyes. Blue eyes esp are very sensitive to sun exposure and esp around snow can make snow blindness occur faster. So your "scientific" knowledge is wrong.

5) Arctic Natives Americans are darker because... We eat fish?????? Huh? Arctic NAs aren't even usually that much darker than Siberian Natives and dude I just gotta say, we ALL* eat fish idiot. Kinda a lot of water up there.

(Obv not all of us eat fish but a lot do, I certainly eat a whole lots of fish it's my main meat intake I don't really eat any meat besides it)

6) I am Arctic Indigenous man, and I'm not even being colorist because I do have light skin, but again this wasn't even about skin color, this was about fantasy Arctic kingdoms all looking like a nazi wet dream unless they're bandits or barbarians, THEN they aren't white and are Asian or Native American, which is obviously extremely racist.

But anyway, the Arctic is extremely diverse with thousands of ethnic groups in it, and to write Arctic kingdoms in fantasy as all white people esp all with being blonde and blue eyed (I literally listened to someone talk about one book that someone was clearly not Arctic because their hair was bleached and not naturally blonde and their eyes weren't blue enough 🤮) Or depicting Asians and Native Americans as barbaric instead which is racist and shows a significant lack of knowledge about any Arctic Indigenous people.
