    You make it sound like if people told Latinos they can’t vote for Democrats then they wouldn’t want to vote Republican anymore. But we all know that ain’t true. Grievances only go direction way in the USA, from the right.

    The GOP is the party for people in a bubble that want to feign victimhood while oppressing working people who are actually the oppressed.

    There’s a conservative Latino in my family who married a white karen, he’s always bashing other Latinos. It doesn’t matter what color their skin is, rightwing Republicans act the same in my experience.

      I’m half Mexican half white… growing up, the only racism I ever experienced was by other Mexicans at my schools because they were farm workers, poor, and saw me as a “half breed” wannabe. My parents didn’t work in the fields, and we lived in a nice side of town (this was when California was bussing in kids from other areas into poorer areas…). My dad busted his ass, went to trade school and got a good job when we were kids, same with my mother. However, I was picked on for looking white and having a white mother. At my schools, all our teachers would talk about how wonderful Democrats were, while constantly bashing Republican leaders. My experience is much more different than what the democrats would have you believe.

        I’m white and I would never speak to the racism you have experienced. But I can tell you that conservatives are more likely to say racist shit about Mexicans around whites.

        If you want to vote Republican, that’s your right. We live in a democracy, I don’t get too upset just because someone has a different POV. But stop lying and saying your vote towards a party full of openly racist politicians is actually the Democrat’s fault. No bro, conservatism is just your POV.
