What's a "pretend" Mexican?

[Lily]

I want to understand what that is. I've only recently ever heard of it.

Discuss.

I went up to the food trucks last week and had street tacos, does that make me a make believe Mexican?

That might be suspect behavior.

[Lily]

Or maybe this?

 

[Lily]

Definitely Taco Bell.

If I celebrated this Halloween dressed as a mariachi I'm pretty sure that would count.

I think that's more of a one off. But it's possible some might see it that way.

Maybe if he sang Marty Robbin’s classic El Paso.

Americans born and bred in the US but insist they're Mexican are "fake Mexicans".

We don't insist on it, it's imposed on us.

Martini just asked Flea a week or so ago if she was even Mexican because of her choice in music that she'd posted.

What a cop out.

 

[Lily]

What a cop out.

Not a cop out. It's simple facts.

You don't know what it's like being of Mexican descent living in the Southwest. It was necessary to say "No Spanish" because of the millions of Spaniards roaming the US.

Stfu. You're only slightly older than me and that shit for the most part stopped by my childhood.

You just hang onto it because you like to identify as a victim of others rather than your own stupidity.

That picture has to be way older than you are, Lily white girl from Texas. You neveer experienced anything like that in your lifetime, I'm quite sure.

What a better vanished time that must have been.

The legacy of calling us Mexicans has never stopped in the Southwest. Though now they do use Hispanic or Latino as well.

You don't know what I've been through. And I'm not going to bother with your hatefulness.

Would you like to have been able to treat Mexicans like that? Is that what you're saying?

I guess you don't take ownership of your bigotry, like most white bigots.

I'm not considered white most places I go. Being asked dozens of times, over my life, where I'm from has made me clear that it's just not the case.

Saying here only starts the game:

Where are your parents from? Me: Here

Where are your grandparents from? Me: Here

But, but...how about before that?

Dude, even most of my great grandparents were born here...

And yet, my Spanish is not broken, I can read and write it and I cook traditional foods. Mexico is about 8 hours drive from where I lived most of my life, one hour flight.

The East Coast is 3 days drive or 6 hours flight. I have never strayed from my roots.

And the US sees more influence from Mexico and other Latin countries every single day.

Fat Lily is a racist sausage finger pointing shit for brains cobweb cunt carrying butterball desert turkey.

My Hatefulness? Seems to me the people being racist and hateful are those such as yourself that are clearly invested in keeping alive hate and resentment for things that happened long ago.

 

[Frood]

I still remember the Alamo....

It wasn't long ago. It's happened to me.

It happened to my kid. She was constantly called Pocahontas by kids because she looks brown with long black hair.

WTF do you know about it? You racist fucking fucks decide what we are and tell us what we are and then tell us we're also fake and pretend.

This is a profoundly sick society. End of...

Just kill yourself, Porkahontas. Nobody gives a fuck about your imaginary suffering from racism.

But many of us think you're a retarded pig.

Being offended and "suffering" are two different things. I've never suffered and never said so.

I just know you racist pigs for what you are. You've shown it over and over.

I sit here and watch you animals talk about all the other races as well. You people are garbage.

Thank you, Fat Lily, for your transphobic outburst.
