So dishonest obsolete JP called a man of Indian origin a Caucasian, using a carefully cherry-picked part of a wiki page for his justification while skipping the bit at the very top which says:
The Caucasian race (also Caucasoid,[a] Europid, or Europoid)[2] is an obsolete racial classification of humans based on a now-disproven theory of biological race.[3][4][5] The Caucasian race was historically regarded as a biological taxon which, depending on which of the historical race classifications was being used, usually included ancient and modern populations from all or parts of Europe, Western Asia, Central Asia, South Asia, North Africa, and the Horn of Africa.[6][7]
I'm not sure because twitter is so hard to navigate these days, but I think Peterson deleted or edited the tweet using the partial wiki quote and tweeted this:
