Turns out if you define a third of your pale population as “Latinx” instead of white, very few white people remain.

Even the 2020 census had the sense (heh) to finally drop the “Hispanic race” and have it as a separate label, but the “researchers” felt like going out of their way to redefine it as a “race” again. Not sure why race is even treated as a scientific thing to begin with in their census, but such is the Amerikkkan way I guess.

Edit: don’t even want to think about the causes of this “age gap”

    Interesting I guess. It’s a no-brainer that this would happen when whiteness is defined by its purity. Some say the definition will be expanded like it was for Italians and Jews, but that requires racists to stop discriminating based off visual appearance so I kind of doubt it. Anyway, rip bozo lmfao

      They already do when it comes to gusanos, so maybe Latinos with mostly colonizer blood will be considered “white” soon. Theres already a separate category for white Latinos so maybe they’ll merge it with “white.”

        I’ve had an exp*t acquaintance no joke use “white statistics” for themself when considering migrating to there. Since they look like Freya Allan they’ll probably even get their “one of the good ones” pass.

      It’s funny, Jews are white right up until the racists need to figure out who is behind the decline in white share of the population, then it turns out we’re shady minority puppet masters
