Q is for the wall. Q is for preserving American heritage. How you describe American heritage is the question. Up until the 60s it was pretty fucking white.

The United States was founded as and always intended to be a European ethnostate. Immigration of anyone non European WAS NOT ALLOWED until the Immigration and Nationality act of 1965. The Jews played an outsized role in getting this legislation passed and ushering in the genocide of whites in America.

Don't believe me it was always designed as an ethnostate? Learn your history...

European includes Hispanic, Slav, Greek and Bulgarian right?

Hispanic means Spanish mixed with nigger and Indian

16903171? ago

so you are saying that being 'Hispanic' is based on language usage, and not ethnicity? write your own special dictionary - freedom of the press and all. many would rather turn to the American Webster's or English Oxford dictionaries.

Hispanic has two major components in every dictionary. Spanish speaking and Latin American. It DOESN'T mean from Spain, it means specifically a latin American mutt (niggers and Indians) that was conquered by Spain. Stop trying to play gotcha games.

By that definition the Seminole of Florida would be considered Hispanic.

Hispanic adjective

His·​pan·​ic | \ hi-ˈspa-nik \

1 : of, relating to, or being a person of Latin American descent and especially of Cuban, Mexican, or Puerto Rican origin living in the U.S.

2 : of or relating to the people, speech, or culture of Spain

https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/Hispanic

This popular dictionary, the American classic, says "of or relating to" things of Spain. The word is first known to have been used in English in 1584, in the second sense seen below. Whereas Latino refers only to Latin American things and was not used in English until the 1940s, adapted from the Spanish language term Latino-Americano. There is a real distinction but some overlap. Many do use the terms interchangeably, while others would rather their language and identities weren't muddied with what you call niggers and Indians or anything having to do with old Mexico. The territory of New Mexico was first 'settled' by people from Spain who never settled anywhere in Latin America and had no intermixing with natives and had no involvement with African slavery. Many were granted land by their sovereigns, the various Kings Philip of the house of Hapsburg who dominated Europe in that era. These settlers established the Capital, Santa Fe, in 1610, a full decade before the Mayflower crossed the Atlantic. There are families in the same territory today who do not consider themselves Latinos in any way. The Webster dictionary quoted above confirms that distinction.

Or should we defer to the ostensibly superior OED?

The real world is a lot messier then dictionaries, encyclopedias, or even non fiction novels can handle and you can't undervalue sweeping stereotypes -such groupings necessarily enable human cognition. Our brains cannot make effective decisions while maintaining the voracious specificity that modern inclusiveness and individuality demands.

Although I'm naturally racist and so is she (and you), I just fucked a super hot Brazilian black chick 4 times last night. I think she is the primary distinction between Latin American and Hispanic. Brazil was a Portuguese colony. She's certainly not Hispanic but you could call her Latin American. Similarly there's some French cultivated niggers and Indians down there too.

She's superhot and not "dumb" but I certainly wouldn't trust flying in a plane anyone from her family engineered.

It gets really hard when you include the Hispanics from the islands. They aren't even in any " America" thus the need for Latin American vs Latino. Hispanic actually comes from the Isle of Hispaniola but what about the French Hatians!? People would look at you cockeyed if you called them Hispanic even though they're more Hispanic than any Latin American.

It's exhausting but no matter how you look at it people living in Spain do not call themselves Hispanics.

16924462? ago

Most of what you say is fair, maybe even true.

Hispanic may be from Hispaniola which comes from the Latin for Spain.

If the Gulf and/or Carribean islands are not in the Americas, is Ireland in Europe?

I didn't say that citizens of Spain call themselves 'Hispanic'. They have Spanish words for such things.

Yes it's exhausting or complex. Look at the variety of ways people use the words English or * American*.

Somebody was making some claim on a basis of ethnicity using fuzzy terminology. Even if race was the primary way to determine social/political decisions (doubt it), any case to be made has to be made using mutually understood vocab. Why not get clarity and precision up front?

16930286? ago

You called people from Spain Hispanic . It's wrong on many levels. It's like trying to call the CEO a contractor . Sure you can do it with some mental gymnastics but it's wrong and you don't fucking get it

16935796? ago

I'm with Webster's

Nice to meet you. Please pay attention to the views addressed on this site. It is a rare unfiltered public forum. The views you get here will be closer to what sincere people really believe without fear of retribution. Publications like Webster's are of a leftist slant because everyone in our society is afraid of the PC wrath. PC does not mean correct, it means politically correct. Since leftists are domineering and censor diverse ideas, anything PC will always have a leftist slant.

16936957? ago

I thought Noah Webster was an American genius and patriot.

Everything gets corrupted by leftists overtime if you don't protect it

16938001? ago

every earthly thing gets corrupted, sometimes by leftism. if you can't protect you gotta renew. including language. if the issue of race is so important, then it deserves the rigor that is reasonably applied to scientific and legal things (and Scriptural things). getting us all speaking the same language with shared definitions is a good way to start focusing on any issue. i don't care so much which definitions are used as long as they are clear and mutually accepted by the party's involved. when discrepancy arises a referee or reference is useful. maybe there is a better reference than Webster's. can you suggest one?

16912558? ago

What are you trying to prove ? A white Spaniard from Spain would kick your fucking ass if you called him a Hispanic. Fuck your dictionary cherry picking ass. Reality trumps leftism's nigger washing of history every time.

16913723? ago

Okay go talk to the Sandoval family of the San Luis Valley and ask them which they would prefer to be called. I've known them. They schooled me on this years ago.

16914593? ago

They don't dictate any narrative because there's not enough of them. Humans just aren't good enough to get it that correct. They'll just be pissed off that everybody gets it wrong in their specific case forever.

16924483? ago

Okay. And your family can't speak for whatever ethnic group you belong to.

N.B. People in Spain don't wouldn't the word 'Hispanic' because it is not a Spanish word. But they could decide if it was acceptable if they knew clearly what it means. The second Webster's definition would probably be acceptable.

16930211? ago

Now I know you're just full of shit and can't handle being corrected
