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.

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.
How do they do that when one great grandmother was French, another English, a third was Portugese, a fourth was German, one grandfather was Polish, nother was English, another was Irish, and the fourth was Dutch?

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.
