There are large populations in Northern Europe with light eyes, and tan well.

I’m going to make the radical assumption that these people, looked like that, and didn’t look like they were African. So much of this junk is openly political and about presenting the “original Europeans” as not us.

I do wonder about the out of Africa theory, the Chinese don’t believe it’s true. They have their own theory that man originated in China. With Africa, I wonder if we’re finding fossil records there because it’s easier to find them there.

That's probably fair, the Brits have had free reign to search for fossils for hundreds of years in Africa. However, what comes out of China? Almost nothing that I can remember. We find more fossils in the northern plains than China does.

I find it hard to believe that back when we had Pangea, the precursors for humans were not present on most of Pangea? And then when it split apart, there were none in South America, Asia, and only what became Africa? It sounds like a BS assertion to placate academics that don't care about being skeptical.

This.

There are some interesting Rabbit Holes and books regarding ancient Irish History.

The people with the absolute worst skin I've ever seen where whitey from the finger countries that were coming from the UAE. They've never heard of sunscreen, for sure.

I know plenty of rednecks that never used sunscreen, but they, never, ever, looked as bad as what I saw on Nordic retirees.

Whoa! The Chinese are too busy covering up white people being the indigenous peoples to China!

I don't think they looked like that at all. There is a very clear distinction between distance from equator and lighter pale skin. Ireland is very distant from the equator.

When I gave my DNA to the Chinese (23&Me before I knew this), I came back as 98% British Isles/City of London and I tan very dark and have light blue eyes. I also really like fried chicken, watermelon and I’ve had Olde English 800 before so do with that what you will.

It's overall bullshite with a pitiful purpose to it. The multi cultural industry in the UK is really crazy. The English are more obsessed with race than the old Southern baws like Leander Perez. If you spoke to some Enish " social anthropogists" they'd have you believe that there were Africans and Asians running around Northern Europe and the British Isles in the middle ages
