    a woman from Sri Lanka (or some other country that’s not exactly known for their arian people)

    You might be surprised.

    (“Aryan” didn’t originally mean what the Nazis wanted it to mean. Like the swastika and a bunch of other stuff, it was stolen and twisted to suit their purposes.)

      Doesn’t matter, the Roma are an Aryan people and were declared non-Aryan by the Nazis. Because the racist idea of Aryan has nothing to do with the correct scientific use of the word.
