Anyone else notice that “white ethnics” are more maga than DAR/mayflower/wasp types?

Uhh…it’s asked all the time

Cubans vs Mexicans is a massive discussion point in voting patterns within the Latino diaspora

Within Indians there is a stark Divide between Punjabis and South Indians (the former vote Republican way more often)

Within Asians you have fancy Asians vs jungle Asians (the former are way more Dems but trending r ….the lattter are more r relatively speaking)


+1. MAGA simpleton was all "How come it's only OK to ask this about white people?" As if these subjects aren't debated, for better or worse, all over the place, about everyone.


Someone who writes like a 7th grader calling the PP a "simpleton"? Precious.

MAGA simpleton: The "was all" was a semiotic riff. We're down with the people, you see.

Also: If you're a guy, using "precious" like that is mad effete. MAGA!

My two ethnic groups are shanty Irish and lace curtain Irish.

Probably not many but I’m one. You can check vital recs to late 1600s and DNA tests. Very boring. I will say that even with in hyphenated American groups there is debate about what makes ___ authentic (food, accent, dress). Blurgh. My family of origin (at least my line) are staunch Dems, moving further left. Those that leaned more right are more left today. The difference I see within my family has to do with location. My family is white inner city. My extended family are suburbanites and gentrifiers.

The "white ethnics" . . . is this hillbilly dialect?

Lolol. The TITLE of the thread asks about “white ethnics” vs WASPS. As if there isn’t much commingling.

Somehow there was never any inter ethnic strife in the USA after prior mass waves of German, Irish, Italian, and eastern European immigration. Nope, this whole division is a brand new thing.


Oh please. White americans dont divide by their great-grandparents nationality. Literally no one cares.


Uhhh, yes they do.

Keep telling them you think they’re racist, I’m sure that’ll do the trick.

I'm the one with the Japanese grandparent. I look and pass as fully white because I'm 75% white. Am I "ethnically white", whatever that means? Am I "ethnically Japanese"? Am I both? At what point does a person become just white? I've never faced discrimination and no one can tell I'm part Asian. The only discrimination I've experienced was second hand when my father and grandmother were called slurs by people. I've never had them levied at me directly though. Am I just white? I know I can't get organ or bone marrow transplants from the "regular white people". In fact, I would probably die if I need one unless my cousins or brother can donate.

White with medical special needs. Like ashkenazi Jews.
