“I have been hearing that song for 30 years or more. It just is not true.”

I know quite a few Latino families including the one I’m sitting across from right now. They’re traditionalist. The single, younger ones have a higher chance of being woke like any ethnic group.

Pretty much socially, there isn’t much difference between Latinos and whites. The urban ones are liberal, and the rural ones are conservative.

I have Hispanic in-laws through all sides of my family. At the far end of that family tree there are some extreme "racists" who disapprove of the connections with the "Anglos". They feel that only true Castilian Spaniards deserve any consideration and that marriages outside of that group are illegitimate.

And yes, I know that "Hispanic" is not a race. It is not even a coherent ethnic group. The Spaniards look down on the Mexicans, who despise the Puerto Ricans. And everybody looks down on the Mestizos. I certainly do not want to get between the Castilians and the Catalans.

In fact, I don't want to listen to one dammed word from "Hispanics" about racism. This White boy doesn't play that game anymore. Won't listen to Blacks playing the "race card" either.

We are all just going to have to behave ourselves.

Nuclear families work great in all cultures. Extended families work even better in all cultures. Single-mother families without extended family connections fail consistently in all cultures. Governments are incapable of replacing extended family connections and they do a very poor job of replacing husbands in a traditional provider-protector role.
