They f***ing ARE white. Where the hell do they think Spain is?
Hispanic refers to a person with ancestry from a country whose primary language is Spanish. Latino and its variations refer to a person with origins from anywhere in Latin America (Mexico, South and Central America) and the Caribbean.
I remember being on a bus tour in Costa Rica. At one point the guide pointed out the window at people in the town square.
“What do you notice about all these people?, he asked. “We are white.”
Even then, and this was at least 15 years ago, it sounded so strange to my ears; pride in being white said aloud.
“Hispanic” is not very meaningful as a classification.
You have those who are 100% white, 100% indigenous, most are some mix, plus you have Brazilians who have a heavy black component.
Some are brown, very brown. Some are darker than some blacks. Some are white and blond with blue eyes. Mexicans are not all one heritage or race, or color just because they are in mexico. There are over 7,000 language dialects as well.
And if some people want to be white, what’s wrong with that? We see some blacks with dyed blond hair and whites with dark tans.
Who gives a flip about skin color?
