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

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.

Only in a really commercialized way. Most white people learned about their european ancestry on a trip to Epcot.

I have had just too many experiences where someone says "I'm x nationality!" And you start talking to them in their supposed mother tongue and they dont actually speak it. You're just American. And I am also just American bc when I go to my supposed homeland, it is culturally different from how I was raised... as an American.

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.

So is white 100% based on skin tone?

Ahhhh, I get the point of this thread!! Liberals look down on America and are trying to separate themselves from being American by birth. In doing so, by not identifying as American, they can ensure they are of a superior group (as per their perception).

Republicans think ethnically white = American.

I know Latin countries tend to be more emotionally led than cognitively led. They veer more towards the beautiful and the strong verses the level-headed. A lot of women in these countries are taught to be subservient to men in politics and highly religious and like to think of themselves as very Marian and submissive and beautiful. So they like fascist type regimes that cater to these desires. They can be angry at "the other" while advertising themselves and their race as more beautiful. It's a win win. That's why these fascist regimes and underground governments are so popular. They can't be angry or pass judgment at their own kind and how beautiful they are in public. Because they are less cognitive, they also tend to have more simple jobs and don't like being called elite and have money transferred to other groups.

Your post made me LOL OP. When I think of MAGAs, I think of white southerners who skipped college and rural types across America. I never thought of dissecting what "type" of white they were..I just think stupid.

Also because of this mindset, they tend to be poorer and more marginalized globally. And more traditional. So they have more of a cultural victim mindset and like to imagine themselves as deserving of more power than they currently have because others have taken it away on earth, while at the same time downplaying the importance of power in their day to day lives because of traditional religious beliefs.

I am Black (not so fresh off the boat) and I find this thread hilarious and terrifying. This is identity politics on steroids! So white liberals are now "othering" their own kind? Aren't all whites ethnic or does one have to be a certain type of white in order to avoid being an ethnic white?

Definitely. Pretty sure there are some blacks that are very conservative and others that are very liberal and you can categorize them as well.

Please define who is an "ethnic black" vs a non-ethnic black?

Someone whose past relatives weren't enslaved in America.

That’s a direct result of racism that was experienced by many white people despite the popular narrative these days about being privileged. They were so “privileged” that they had to abandon their own culture in order for their family to be accepted in America. And now they get to be told that they have no ethnicity.
