Carlos Danger? Is he one of those ‘white Hispanics’ the left is so fond of pointing out?

Why is his name pronounced ‘Weener’? Using the arrangement of vowels in his name, it should be pronounced ‘Wyner’ or better, ‘Whiner’, given the ethnic origin of the name.

When i comes before e, the diphthong is pronounced with the ‘ee’ sound, e before i emphasizes the ‘y’ sound.

I’m thinkin’ he’s more like a dips**t than a dipthong.
