I’m aware people can be euro latinos and afro latinos. The bytch don’t look cac to me, her features stick out.Ok, she's a spicy Becky. The average person sees her as a White person. She checks WHITE on the Census as race.
Hispanic is not a race. Middle Easterners is not a race either.
There are WHITE Hispanics. There are White Middle Easterners.
BTW...here's one of the leaders of Alt-right. Nick Funtes. This is a White man and a White Nationalist. Also, a Hispanic.

Might as well call Danny Garcia a white man.
Human beings aren't just black and white. Why is it so hard to comprehend?

I’m not about to argue with who I presume is a black woman over something that doesn’t exactly concern us. “Spicy CaC”huehuehue…muchos clever. She isn’t what I’d classify as white nor does she identify that way. Seems weird and counterproductive to ask the world to respect us but not show others the same grace. But you do you.
You don't ask someone to respect you. They either do or they don't, asking won't do a damn thing.
Trying to be allies with so called "people of color" ain't working for us. Claiming them, ain't working for us. Sticking up for them ain't working for us. I know it's the loving "right" thing to do, but other groups get ahead because they don't *truly* care about anyone but themselves. I support black Hispanics. But she's not a black hispanic. If yall want to call her a mixture (between european and native american that's fine but she's still not black so as far as I'm concerned she's a spicy variation of white).

I'm sure that's what he checks on the Census.Might as well call Danny Garcia a white man.

What race would you mark him as? We are speaking on race not ethnicity.

That's what he checks because the Census has limited and unrealistic options. If the president of Egypt or Turkey came to America, they would have to check white as well.
Except this is America. And she is Puerto Rican. And Puerto Ricans aren’t considered white here. Not sure how it works where you are from.Huh she looks like every cacette from the Mediterranean

Nothing cracks me up more than seeing the term "spicy cac"
It's such a funny term.
It's such a funny term.
Not in America. Puerto Ricans are not considered white. I guess it’s different in the country you live in?

I understand. But, he has a choice. He checks it cause he wants to check it. And he knows he presents as White. It is what it is.
And best believe, the President of Egypt and Turkey wouldn't want to choose anything OTHER than WHITE - even if they had a choice.
As for the Garcia man, I know y'all in NYC, (and Miami) may look at people differently, but the rest of America will see him as a White Hispanic and depending on the day - he could pass as just White.
My mind is blown though. I see why ish is all messed up - we letting everybody claim they POC when they are clearly White.
AOC and her family.
I grew up in Florida. I stated this very early in the thread. At no point have I claimed she’s Afro-Latina or a “sworn ally” of black Americans. I don’t think anyone here has. Where is that lie coming from? You and others are making stuff up as an excuse to spew ignorance. Nobody’s kowtowing to this woman because she’s Puerto Rican (wtffff?), but it certainly comes as a surprise that you’d co-opt some conservative charlatan’s bullshyt. What point are you even trying to make here? I’ve even said in this very thread talks of Latino ethnicity and race are complex, but it should be clear why Tucker Carlson made this statement. Tf are yall even trying to argue.
You say that like it’s not relevant
Context matters here. I don’t know what AOC would be considered in China. I don’t care.
In NY, in the Bronx, she is a Puerto Rican, and not white. This is universal in America.

They have the choice to choose what race they would like to identify as -- and most choose White.

No, it IS - that's why I asked. Cause, y'all look at things totally different that the average person. And that's fine, cause in any other state, she would be White Hispanic or just White.
