But don’t call them racists and hurt their fragile fee fees.

      How quickly people forgot about Enrique Tarrio…

      White supremacy is actually pretty big with people who are mixed race.

      Because it means they’re still better than all of one side of their family, and they believe if they ingrain themselves enough into the movement, they would rank higher than white people who aren’t white supremacists.

      Which they do, until the movement seizes power, then biracial white supremacists aren’t even considered white anymore, let alone a white supremacist.

      But over and over again, going back all thru recorded history and almost definitely before, we see that behavior.

      Which honestly makes sense. You gotta remember we’re running off tribal software and the whole skin color thing is just a lazy patch over.

      Jumping tribes was a valid strategy for much of human history, but that tribe kicking out newer additions to make way for others for visual homogeneity to easily differentiate non tribes members, shouldn’t be surprising either.

      And to be clear, these racists pieces of shit are not putting that much thought into any of this, they’re following instincts they don’t understand and the first step to steering them away from this bullshit, is understanding why people won’t stop falling for it.

      The people steering them into it, absolutely understand what they’re exploiting.

      Got to remember that colonialization was a pretty big thing in the Americas man, all of it, and since it’s only the father, dude is white passing.

      Plus there’s always those minorities who have bought into the whole, “I’m a model minority, they’d never come for me” out there.

      There are a lot of hispanics that are supporting nazi-ism now. Seemingly unaware they will never be accepted as equals by them.

      They think they will enjoy permanent preferred status for the support, when in truth the authorities will grind them and us all under the boot as soon as they don’t need them and are able to do so.

      This is your, and everyone who reads this, reminder that at least half of Latino people are white. Just straight up white.

        The racists I grew up around would use the same slurs for a passing and non-passing Latino. Also probably call you a damn Mexican if they’re being polite.
