The Latino Vote Has The Democratic Party Nervous

[O.Red]

A lot of non-black minority groups in America have stockholm syndrome when it comes to white people.

it is what it is if you notice they only cry racism when a cac do cac shyt to them instead of us being the buffer.




symptoms of SS

• Positive feelings toward the captors or abusers.
• Sympathy for their captors’ beliefs and behaviors.
• Negative feelings toward police or other authority figures.

lets replace it with this

• Positive feelings toward the white supremacy ideology .
• Sympathy for them and there beliefs and behaviors.
• Negative feelings towards biggest victims/fighters of white supremacy ideology. (black folk)

sounds like a lot of non black american poc

Although I don't completely disagree with you, using Stockholm syndrome is a little too dismissive of the situation and removes agency from what are mostly willing participants

There are too many blind spots in racism that allow everybody to play dumb when it comes to egregious shyt. The space for these blind spots is a large part of the brilliance of racism as a system

Latinos, like any other minority group know the game is

1.  White, the social ideal
2. Black, the pariah, the criminals, the "don't be like them" class
3. The buffers, everyone else

The crux of the game is: You can't be WHITE, but you can live a pretty good life if you participate in a system that often treats black people bad. Or, at the very least, playing dumb about their treatment (until you need something from us)


The buffers are fully aware of this dynamic and play the game accordingly. It's not about thinking white people are their friends, it's a silent agreement that everyone is in on

Would people like the Hodge Twins and Candace Owen be in the buffer class?

 

[Glorious]

Right the entire think piece post was full deflection.

 

[Diunx]

Latinos a pretty conservative, that's why most of latin america is a shythole

 

[O.Red]

Would people like the Hodge Twins and Candace Owen be in the buffer class?

I don't know who the Hodge Twins are but in regards to Candace I would say so

She serves the same function and undoubtedly has awareness of her actions and place in the game

The only caveat I would offer for someone like Candace is there is an element of pro blackness to her and her type, but whatever salient points she makes in regard to the advancement of black people are washed out by her very apparent desires to be accepted by and frequently cavort with whites

You are 110% correct. PR has 78 municipalities and most of those mayor's are straight up corrupt. They had residence complaining they weren't getting federal aid while they had a warehouse full of supplies that they would not give out to the people. The corruption is from top to bottom

Puerto Ricans discovered a warehouse full of unused food, water, and supplies from Hurricane Maria, resulting in the firing of the island's emergency manager

they getting screwed by privatization and just push harder for more of it.

 

[97Pac]

they getting screwed by privatization and just push harder for more of it.

Unfortunately things will never change. They keep voting for these corrupt politicians who come in and promises them a bunch of stuff then rob the people blind.

It would take sacrifice from everyone to actually fix the island and the problems it has and that's not happening.

I have friends that live in PR and they kinda fill me in. They have the money and resources to leave but they love their home too much to leave.

Some people are so preoccupied with "what can I get for free" they don't see the game these politicians are playing with them.

Did you notice the respect, the candor, the genuine conversation about appealing to Latinos in the last video? No shaming tactics, no both sides vs lesser of two evils, no get in line or get deported, no fear mongering, and no Latino men ain’t shyt rhetoric just plain o’l what can we do as party to reach this demographic and address their concerns.

“What about them?”

They’re not pushing hard for it, at all, the island is split down the middle

Former Puerto Rico Governor Arrested on Corruption Charges

The arrest of the former governor coincides with a wave of unrelated public corruption cases on the island, including the arrests of nine mayors so far this year.

Ms. Vázquez was the commonwealth’s top prosecutor in 2019 when mass protests swept Gov. Ricardo A. Rosselló out of office. The island has no lieutenant governor, and the first office in the line of succession, secretary of state, was vacant at the time, so Mr. Rosselló’s resignation unexpectedly catapulted Ms. Vázquez into the governorship. A Republican and member of the island’s pro-statehood party, she served for less than two years, completing Mr. Rosselló’s term but losing her bid for another term when she was defeated in a primary in 2020.

Federal prosecutors said that when Ms. Vázquez lost the primary, Mr. Herrera tried offering a bribe to the winner — the current governor, Pedro R. Pierluisi. But the person representing Mr. Pierluisi in the scheme was actually working undercover for the F.B.I.

so basically she was a corrupt prosecutor that got elevated to be the president of the island.

bribing the winner after you loss?!

Texas Mexicans and Miami Cubans

They almost the same. Some of them white cubans got confederate in them

 

[Uachet]

Would people like the Hodge Twins and Candace Owen be in the buffer class?

I would say no, because really they are just deluded. What happens to the willing Black tools of White Supremacy once they have no more use for them? They break them. So they are really just deluding themselves into thinking they are apart of the buffer class, but their position there is only as long as they remain useful.

*My personal opinion on the question.
