because basically i come from this very racist family of armenian immigrants who spit on other immigrants to feel whiter than others, so they'd never consider themselves as poc, even though some of them are extremely dark-skinned. and like sometimes armenians are considered caucasian because they are of indo-european descent, sometimes they're considered middle-eastern, and because of the long history of persecution, loss of land and loss of life, many armenians don't want to label themselves as white. It's all a big mess really.
