[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Latinos, we are not white enough, or black enough to “count”. Geez.[/quote]

But you get yo take advantage of affirmative action while some can still receive or be entitled to white privilege. Good deal![/quote]

But if you are a white Latino then you get the side eye from people like OP. [/quote]

Actually, I could give a f*&% about getting the side eye from OP.  That's the least of it -- what I also get is:

"Immigrants like your family are wonderful people, a credit to your race ... it's the illegals coming in from Mexico that I'm talking about." (A statement made by classmate at a reunion of my top SLAC.)

"Could you explain to the cleaning staff about the recycling, please?" (A request from a colleague at my law firm.)

And, the ever-popular -- "I love Sophia Vergara on Modern Family!"  (Stated in a gushing way by many people including a fellow parishioner at my church.)

Sure, on one level these encounters are hilariously funny, but they also tell you a lot of about how clueless these people actually are.   [/quote]
