    Or look like an Argentinian, Mexican, Puerto Rican, Bolivian...and from many other Latin-American countries and regions..........but, then, you "" certainly already knew this fact". Didn't you?

    Race=physical differences, Ethnicity=cultural difference and Nationality=country identification. Most simplistic way I can put it.

    It would surprise you to know how many Americans are convinced no Latino/a can be white.........and how many more aren't aware of the fact that Spaniards / French / Italians......also have a lot of Latino blood in them.

    And in my opinion, it's also the most accurate.
    On a side note, though, I also consider the differences to be entirely irrelevant. Like the old folks used to say: "People are people."

    Ethnicity, race and nationality from growing up Amish I was taught the Amish were on the straight and narrow path that leads to life everlasing while the "English" or anyone not Amish were on the broad path that leads to destruction in other words I was taught anyone not Amish was going to hell. Gods loves the Amish hates everyone else.

    Abd religion, regardless of which one, is the most powerful tool to manipulate people.

    A meaningless distinction and a distinction without a difference.The illegals speak Spanish and are therefore Hispanic. They are from Central America and are therefore Latino. My description was correct.

    Btw, 'Latina' is the Spanish way of saying Latino. I don't speak Spanish and I don't give a damn if it offends anyone if I say Latino and not Latina.


    2) ""Time for another revolution.""Would you care to explain your comment?

    Gladly.

    Whether for bad or good the government and economic system of the United States was envisioned and put into motion by educated white European males. The Constitution and the society it engenders, even allowing for all its acknowledged historic wrongs (slavery, class and racial prejudice, economic disparity, etc.) has been the most advanced and democratic culture the world has seen, allowing the United States to become a world power.

    The oligarchy that are pursuing the Great Reset see national identity and national borders as an obstacle to their desired feudalistic world government. Those same people now control most large corporations and most national governments.

    The strategy being pursued to destroy the sovereignty of The United States Of America is to flood the country with uneducated, poor third world people. Cheap labor. That population is much more submissive to authority than the everyday American citizen and so accept a reduced standard of living that real citizens would not.

    Those non-citizen people are being given the vote and will largely vote Democratic. They will be subsidized with taxpayer money until they find work. Then they will work for subsistence wages, in effect destroying the lives of lower class and lower middle class American families, who will then have the choice of working for reduced wages or going on the government dole.

    I don't look down upon illegal immigrants. They are just trying to survive and create a decent life for themselves and their children. (They are not undocumented workers, they are illegal immigrants.) Instead, I despise the oligarchs and their puppets in government with their feudalist /communist /nazi ideology who are herding illegals by the millions across the southern border with the sole purpose of destroying my country.
