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”
they’re gonna expand the definition again like they did in the 60s for irish, italians, etc.
“One drop rule” except for whites instead.
Fascists are dumb but not that dumb. They know the “white” population is declining which is why they are redefining their racial goals. Anything to not talk about capital.
I feel that they’re already doing that by eliminating the choice of Hispanic or Latinx options as a race and letting them choose white.
To say something like this is insane to me. “Whites” are going to be a big part of mainstream society? “The future is white and we will make sure of it, in the name of diversity.”
Now the system can reinforce white supremacy through the co-option of peoples that would have been considered otherwise. This is diversity now sweaty.
