He used the term "Hispanics have a problem related to whites". I asked if he meant many Hispanics can pass as white, and he said "Well, that's one reason." Meaning not the reason he was thinking of.
The implication I got was an assumption that Republicans are considered the party of white bigots, and Hispanics are willing to vote for white bigots, and so the left media is essentially ignoring them.
If that isn't what he meant, I'm not sure how many other problems Hispanics can possibly have related to white people.
Sort of puts paid to the notion that Democrats want Hispanic immigration in order to stack the election deck in their favour if they increasingly vote Republican. A big part of it was the Obama Administration's stance towards Cuba, particularly in Florida where the Cuban diaspora don't take to kindly towards sucking up to a regime that exiled them.
Another big part of it would be the focus on the black community to the detriment of the Hispanic community.

Jesus Christ. That is not what he means at all. You know that Hispanics and Latinos can be white, right? That is why if you mark "White" as your race on a demographic questionnaire, you then have to specify whether you are "Not Hispanic or Latino."
Many Hispanics and Latinos are or consider themselves to be white, and vote accordingly. They do not realize that the white racists with whom they are voting in solidarity do not likewise see them as white, and would be the first to tell them to go back where they came from.
Re: Immigration census and shifting of congressional seats

After reviewing Joe Biden's first 17 executive orders since he took office, I was curious about the implications behind the reversal of Donald Trumps executive order to [b]not count undocumented immigrants in census's.So all immigrants, legal and undocumented, account for 26 seats. 24 from states that Donald Trump lost.
California gains 11 more seats. New York and Texas get four seats. Florida gets 3 seats.
I believe this is a projection at the time, unsure what the actual outcome was.
Undocumented immigrants alone gives California four more seats. A lot of other states lose seats because of the new proportions in other states from immigration (If I'm reading this right)
Some red states do seem to benefit, but blue seem to have a distinct advantage.
Its no wonder the Democrats established themselves as the party of immigrants, considering you want all the seats you can get. [/B]
The party of immigrants, my ass. They're the party of illegal aliens, baby murder, and anti-USA policies. Illegal immigration hurts those who try to immigrate here legally, not to mention how it negatively affects all actual American citizens.
Don't play the left's disingenuous game by lumping illegal aliens in with actual, legitimate immigrants.

Nah, you can hold whatever political opinions you like. Unlike leftists, I think everyone is entitled to have their voice heard. My only problem is when you call illegal aliens "undocumented immigrants" but like you said, you have a "leftist way of thinking" so it's not really surprising.

Years and years ago now I knew a guy who's views I'm uncertain of.
He put a giant sized swastika flag on the back wall inside his apartment. But that doesn't necessarily mean he believes in Nazi ideology, does it? 😱

Okay, I don’t agree with nazis. Now, are they right wing or left wing? This is getting so confusing.
Nazi's are nazi's.
The way I look at it, it doesn't matter if you're a Democrat or Republican. The moment you start taking lives, you don't deserve the benefit of understanding where you're coming from. You're just an *******.
Donald Trump and Barrack Obama sure never lead anyone into gas chambers, so not nazi's.
Blake: they're left wing. At least Hitler's nazis were. There may be some idiot skinhead neonazis today that consider themselves to be right wing though. As a legitimate right winger, I have nothing to do with them. They do not speak for me.
I've always said that naziism, communism, and socialism are all sister ideologies. They are all big government, they all value the state and the collective more than the individual, and they are all authoritarian.
