Judging from his look, he looks pure Somalilander. I do agree with him, MOST Somalilander looks like him although he is darker than average people.
This is what I call "Shaqo la'an". Registering to weirdo website to insult someone or to prove him wrong.
Somewhere in the middle of the thread he starts arguing with some white guys that Somalis are not black and that Obama is blacker than him and other weird shit. And that he's like Yemenis. How is that not delusional?
This guy has been doing the same shtick for years on that place. It's madness.
Unlike you I don't have much time to read all the comments in that weirdo website nor I stalk every Somalilanders be it in cyber life or dreams.
He replied to someone who said Somalis and Ethiopians are light skinned and proved them that his Igbo Nigerian friend is several shades lighter than him. How can he beg someone to tell him his is not black when he himself admit that his Nigerian friend is lighter than him?!! And I personally saw pure Saudi who looks like him and I'm sure plenty of Yemenis do. Does that make me delusional too?
Tell me are Indians blacks?
If not, how come Obama who is lighter than half of Indians is considered Black while Indians are not?
Can you define "Black"? Americans failed to define it. Who was legally white in Virginia was not in other states. And who was not considered Black in Florida was considered Black in other states. Will you apply one-drop rule on your Somalilander friend?
One of my relatives had children from Vietnamese woman he married in 50's and all his children look pure Vietnamese. How will you classify them? Will you call my half French cousins, who are blondes and lighter than regular French, Blacks? To me they are reer hebel, you are what your father is no matter how you look like. Full stop.
Your Somalilander friend should not bother arguing with bunch of Europeans who don't really know who their biological fathers are. Unlike them he can trace his lineage to the 14th century or even further more. His patriarch shrine is in Mayd along with only his children and wives. What else he wants? Culturally, it is not appropiate for a male to post his picture so others can comment on it. But this guy most likely was not born at Somaliland nor did his parents so he might not know much about culture.
He is so Black as Dravidian. Happy now?
It is not healthy to talk about someone behind his back. If anyone has problem with him better talk to him. It is really waste of time.
