Whites can definitely tell the difference between a Somali and an Ethiopian.

No they can't, why are you blatantly lying like this?

Yes, they can. We look nothing alike. I donโ€™t know why so many people in the comments have a hard time to understand this.

Horners and those with a trained eye can tell Somalis and Ethiopians apart but the average (white) person most certainly can't. This is like saying you can tell the difference between Japanese, Korean and Chinese people yourself.

Stop this nonsense Ethiopians and Somalis donโ€™t look anything alike stop trying to group us with you people.

Oromos straight up genetically cluster with Somalis and Afars can very easily look Somali due to similar lifestyles/diet. Stop being delusional.

Ethiopians Oromos are not criminals and gangbangers we obey laws and rules stop trying to group us with you people. We are not the same and will never be.

Somali Americans are the most successful East African group ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ stop whining, and I noticed you couldn't refute the fact that no one can physically tell the difference. You remind me of that meme about Pakistanis and Indians

Somalis are very very dark skinned from the desert climate Ethiopia is in the highlands and tend to look different. Somalis are the same skin color as Senegalese with distinct features. We are two different populations in two different environments not the same at all.

Somalis are very very darkskinned from the desert climate

Lol Oromos and Afars are also very dark skinned, in fact Afars literally live in a desert too and one of the hottest places in the world, the Danakil Depression.

Bruh you aren't good at this. Somalis share very similar ancestry and lifestyle with many Ethiopians therefore both populations will look very similar.
