I still get a kick out of how the libs made “Latinos” something other than Caucasians . . . what a shock that must have been

They are not Caucasians. They are Mestizos, which is a mix of European (mostly Spanish/Portuguese) and Amerindian.

Oink! What if we just called them Americans (that is, if they’re citizens) . . . would that do for the libs?

Of course most Caucasians aren’t Caucasians either—except for Armenians, Azerbaijanis, Georgians, Ossetians, and a few other groups. Why did that become a synonym for “white”?
