is Turkic’s only a Turkish thing?
ok so why are Turkic’s only a Turkish thing ? Like other countries don’t have that?
I think Arabs do because they are in the Middle East. But besides Arabs why is it only Turkics and other countries don’t have that term. For example Germans don’t have Germanics.. right ?

Not really, most notable one is being slavic. It is normal to differentiate people, i am way different then other turkic people as an anatolian türk but still we shouldn't care about europeans and their weird fantasy of categorizing everything and calling it social sciences.

Thank you slay, worst thing happened to homosexuality is that european people started to categorize them as different type of human and called it science, worst thing happened in european history because of european people started to categorize another human being as subhuman because of their skin tones/religion/culture and called it science. I don't say these things to shit on european people today but we need to learn something from mistakes of the pasts and stop overly categorizing people and trying to justify it with calling it "science".
