    I would love to see adopted people take a DNA test. I'm adopted and I have no access to any family history whatsoever, and I know I'd be interested to see other people go through that journey

      Have to say I enjoy not knowing, I can be whatever I want and in the current times I'd like to believe I have a lot of non-Earth based DNA. I also don't need any other "relatives," as I already have enough relatives I don't see or talk to I don't need more unless they're really rich and want to give me some $$$.

      You're not forced to go anywhere unless you're forced through a slave trade. The reason why Jew-ish travel is because because they need to be involved with everyone's financial system. It's not necessarily because they were "forced". Y'all are the only people that forced Palestinians to give up their land so that all "Jews" can have a "free" country.

      Much like people from Mexico are surprised to find African DNA. Of course in Mexico they aren't but in the U.S. people seem unaware that Spain was conquered and raped for 700 years by the Moors. That tends to leave a mark. Spain does the same to Mexico and here I am. Chinese tried to conquer Mongolia only to get their behinds kicked, hard. So they built a wall. Still, lots of admixture. History already tells these stories.

I say trace with quotation marks because back then (and even until recently) families would take in children left on the streets without actually adopting them or wouldn't register their childrens/register them years after they were born so it's really all mixed up.

      That's basically how it is in Europe though 😅 it's possible to trace back to 17th century, but before that it's harder and you need to be lucky. Because of the reformation, and the 30 years war and all the wars before (like the 100 years war) a lot of parish registers are not existing anymore or they just didn't have it before. So it's not possible to find a record before that.
      But everything after 1600 isn't that much of a problem to trace back because of parish registers and comunal registers and court books.
      Of course if you don't know which region or town your ancestors came from it will be difficult.

I can trace my English Ancestry in America farther back than that but for people who can’t, it provides a possible glimmer of insight into their family history and gives them a new sense of identity that ties back into their family and bloodlines. Indeed, due to the wide margin of error in these types of tests it could also be just a toss in piece of rubbish data.... or it might not. We don’t know and they don’t know but that doesn’t give us the right to sneer at their excitement at the possibility of new connections to different cultures in an already unforgiving world.

      Yes it part if their DNA not their culture. They are 2 different things. I'm saying if you are say .4% Asian you are not likely to know mandarin or another Asian language. You would likely not know a lot about the Asian culture (which in itself can vary drastically compare Indians and koreans for example). We are all a big mixing pot of different DNA because of our ancestors. These test are not the most accurate either.

      Did we watch the same video? Lol when did they claim that they were part of that culture? It can still be exciting to know somewhere in your history is something completely unexpected. I feel this allows them a reason/excuse to embrace and learn about these cultures (thought not appropriate them of course) All knowledge is good knowledge you know; that's how dying languages stay thriving or forgotten tribes stay remembered. I understand your point as it wouldn't make much sense if they say went "oh now I'm ASIAN with .2%" but they didn't do that, they got excited to learn a part of their history they didn't see coming.
