We’re not talking about what they’d identify as. We’re talking about what American society identifies them as.

There are plenty of races that include darker complexions that your average American wouldn't consider black even just looking at them (e.g., Indians). There's more to looking black than just skin tone, there's facial features, hair type, etc

We’re talking skin tone here, not other physical characteristics.

Yes. That is my point. You cannot automatically assume the person is black based solely on the description "darker complexion."

You’re ignorant for assuming “darker complexion” automatically means black and you’re apparently dumb as fuck too for needing someone to explain that to you. How embarrassing.
