It’s not racist at all to characterize as uneducated non-English speaking POC who vote how you don’t like. It’s also definitely not racist to assume immigrants don’t speak English. Congratulations on your progressive bona fides!

Hatred is the only normal thing about you and we white liberals don't want that foisted on us.

The Democratic idol, John Kennedy, really screwed over the Cubans by not calling in air support during the Bay of Pigs. It sent an unfortunate precedent for Democrats.

There has been unchecked disinformation in Spanish aimed at Hispanics in general. There were several news articles about that before the election.

Plus in Florida specifically, the various Spanish-speakers are generally centrist to begin with: culturally anti-Communist, so they'll never vote for anyone portrayed as a Socialist. Which was central to the disinformation campaign, and sadly, was not well rebuffed by Democrats.

Fear of communism and socialism.

Cubans and many Hispanic cultures are very conservative socially. They tend not to be politically active and not to vote in large numbers, but Cubans are the exception to that. And younger Hispanic Americans are more likely to vote than their parents.

Spanish language radio in Miami is a firehose if disinformation.

Cubans in Miami are anti-communist. The Brazilians tend to be rich. The Venezuelans are both. The South Americans in Miami are elites and, in crude terms, white.

I follow politics closely and most urban centers across the whole country (and the world) tend to be more progressive than their rural or suburban counterparts. People willing to live in a city generally like people more and have less fear of others. So why did Miami turn red this election and will it swing back?
