I agree with everything you said and the general sentiment ....kind of....i guess not really but I can see why you think that......but I gotta take issue with the bolded. Come to LA/San Jose. They're out there.
Report shows Hispanics are rapidly moving up the economic ladder than blacks.

Man, I hate that they've tried to label nikkas as lazy. I grew up in a middle/working class neighborhood and every fukking body worked hard as fukk. Every damn day. Both parents. Wasn't no stay at home moms in my hood. Everyone old enough had job working long hours. Don't let them call us lazy. fukk outta here with that shyt

Sometimes I feel like this site is a ran by white supremacist. Threads like this always get made when what happened over the past 2 weeks unfolded.
I was just doing a racist because it tells you something that you don't want to hear? LOL
I am glad we can see eye to eye on this particular topic. Seems your calming down with the Latino worship and attempting to be objective (in this thread at least).
Hispanics do not face the same things as us
HOWEVER, a big help is that they rarely go in debt. They pull there money together. So instead of paying 3 credit cards and a care note, they put that ALL in savings and get generate wealth faster

All immigrant groups do considerably well. There was a thread recently about African immigrants doing well.
They also have their own communities in which they operate family run businesses. They’ll have the entire family working at the business.
And the bodegas will have their family members on the books working minimum wage part time, while simultaneously getting government benefits including EBT. Then they go to the supermarket, buy stuff, and resell for twice the price. They also rarely hire local people who aren’t of their group, so they’re not really creating jobs when they open businesses.

A lot of wealth has to do with housing. A Hispanic family is more likely to get a house in a white neighborhood where the properties appreciate in value. This is not the case with a black family
Hence stronger family unit.
Like I said on this site, stronger family units/stronger black communities/ black upwardly mobile people not looking down at other blacks as beneath them will go a long way to steer the trajectory. Stories of individual black success stories/black special snowflakes WILL NOT.
I'm AA but got Haitian fam thru marriage. Family just as important to Haitians if not more. My haitian brother in law is in the hotel industry. My nikka use to network with rich cacs on vacation on my behalf without me even asking
Got hired by these cacs who own multiple retirement centers with a nice signing bonus on some Jean sings your praises, we'll love to have you here
That's brotherhood right there

Mexicans want their kids to have better lives than they did. So every generation gets better. The offspring are not going to be stuck with the jobs that the parents had. There's a lot of other things they're doing right as well. They aren't perfect, I mean hell, look at Mexico. However, they are doing ok.

Safe yes, but what about middle class?

There's absolutely nothing similar about Hispanics and blacks, we both just happen to be minorities.
The gestation of debt is huge, they come to this country with $0 and even though they have some minor discrimination they are offered jobs. They shyt jobs, but they get em.
Now let's do the reverse to a black family trying to come up in literally any period during or after Jim Crow
One major difference is our peoples drive is "how do I make $5" whereas an immigrants drive is "how do I turn $1 into $5" because they generally don't have the burden of 400 years of oppression behind them. I'm not lessening their struggle, especially right now...but they are not the same as us.
It's almost as if they want to be here, where the rest of us have to make lemonade out of lemons
.
We tired and our people tired of having everything taken and used against us, and here comes Pedro and nem
They the new kids on the block that are about to take over
