This thread is about people you may actually think were Somalis if you saw them walking down the street. I would not think so for any of those you posted except the first one on the left.

I know malis that look like their carbon copies but maybe where just hanging around different groups, these guy not only look Somali to me but are widely known as Somali looking by the general public and are called Abdi or Somali pirates in several memes

None of them look Somali except for the first one on the left. My Somali radar is excellent.

well the general public would disagree since theres several memes calling them malis with thousands of retweets, and as I've said I know somalis that look like their carbon copies, maybe they don't look Somali to you either

Neither look Somali. People who are not Somali often have skewed views of what Somalis look like.

@Apollo in the meme the first one according to me does look Somali saaxib

half the tweets and memes were from somalis themselves do they also not know how a somali looks

Half-way, but not 3/4th to approaching Somaliness.

If I saw him I would think he is New World Black or Afro-Caribbean.

I guess my full somali cousin couldn't pass as somali than because he looks exactly like him lol

Not all Somalis look quintessentially Somali. Only about 3 out of 4 do. 1 out of 4 look weird and atypical.

This is the case for most ethnicities. There are many Habeshas who don't look Habesha.

this is where I think me and you disagree, we have a different image when it comes to quintessentially Somali, the ones you post look more like rare looks for malis that I see, and it seems its vice versa
