Dear Enzo Fernández

Your name is Italian,

Your surname is Spanish,

Your passport says you're from a place about 10,000km away.

Ho-hum.

I don't know what to say. Your own links disagree with you. Indigenous component is less than 50% in all graphs and all paragraphs and your own links say so.

"current population of Argentina is the result of generations of intermixing between various groups, including Indigenous Americans who originally resided in this part of South America, Spanish conquistadores and Africans brought as slaves starting in the early and late 1500s respectively, and a large European immigrant population that arrived between 1870 and 1950 [1]. This process was sex-biased, frequently involving Indigenous American women and European men, as evidenced by results from mitochondrial DNA and Y-chromosome analysis [2,3]. Further sources of admixture in the Argentina population have been introduced by local migration from the rural areas to the cities (1930–1980), and more recently, by immigration from other South American countries such as Paraguay, Peru and Bolivia (National Institute of Statistics and Census of Argentina (INDEC), 2008). In spite of this rich history of immigration and admixture, most of the Argentine population self-identifies as of European-descent, with only 1% of the total population self-identifying as descendants of an indigenous group (INDEC, 2006). In contrast to this perception, it has been reported that a considerable proportion of the Argentine population has at least one Indigenous American ancestor . Most of the studies that evaluated the distribution of genetic ancestry in Argentina included samples from the Buenos Aires province, where a great proportion of the population resides"

So basically what you're saying is that a small part of the current Argentine gene pool stems from the widespread rape of Amerindian women by European invaders.

Just to remind you, you offered this up in the context of Argentine footballers racially insulting the Afro-French footballers playing for France, implying in not so many words that their insults actually come from a place of greater legitimacy. Well done.

This reminds me of when Peks described someone as ‘100% Greek’.

most Argentinians do indeed have small admixture from Amerindians

as with all conquests the gene flow is overwhelmingly from the conquering males into the native females.
such interactions would have occurred using the whole range of human mate relationships...from rape to consensual

same thing ofcourse has happened in Europe
my own y-chromosome haplotype is R1b , by far the most common in Western Europe which was brough here by the bronze aged Indo-europeans from the Steppe..the Yamnaya

we are all the product of conquests and migrations and all the various interactions that brought

...which makes it nonsensical to want to draw a line under any particular moment or place in time, least of all today, when there's probably more mixing globally than at any prior point in history.

Argentina's Vice-President Victoria Villarruel:

"No colonialist country is going to intimidate us for a football song or for telling the truths that they do not want to admit. Stop feigning indignation, hypocrites. Enzo, I'm with you."

This is she 👇
