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”
whiteness isn’t real. it’s a hegemonic construct that will always absorb enough new bodies to maintain it’s dominant positions. many latinos/hispanics are already becoming white as part of this social construction.
Racist “we are the good ones” MAGA Latino/Hispanic people are kind of common in my area and it fucking sucks.
