> how exactly does the Sami language factor into your theory that today's Sami are just cosplaying Swedes? It should be noted that that's not a particularly meaningful observation. They speak a Turkic language in Turkey while obviously not being Turks, a legacy of conquest. And they speak Modern Hebrew in Israel, which is a historical case of language cosplay! Nobody spoke Hebrew before, but they thought it would be cool to do it.
