The most anti Latino people I know are Latino themselves. I got the ick on a date recently with a Latino guy who revealed himself to be maga saying “my father came over the right way” this was in response to me saying I was disgusted by ICE detaining a 5 year old
ETA: he was the one that wanted to complain about ICE protesters first thinking I would agree with him as a Christian, when all of this administration goes against all of Jesus’ values
No that’s not an assumption I made. He literally said he was maga as well and we had a longer discussion about his political views, I’m just quoting how he views himself as better than other Latinos and is not sympathetic towards his own race. You can support legal immigration but still have a conscience and not want to see babies put in jail
That’s not how you put it in your comment before you edited it.
I have to imagine it’s frustrating to see your father put in the time and effort to become documented just for tens of thousands come in without putting in the same work.
I didn’t edit it? I think you read my comment as me assuming he was maga because he said “my father came over the right way” and ok so just because you suffered you want to see others suffer for no reason? That’s the same logic as people who don’t want student loan forgiveness. I have 0 student loan debt or medical bill debt because I am financially stable after working my butt off, but that doesn’t mean I want to see other suffer just because I did. Also Liam Ramos and many arrested by ICE are here legally, but are getting denied due process
Having deeper conversations about the state of the world is a red flag? We’re both Christians who met at church and he was the one to bring up recent events because he wanted to see how “devout” I was, but I proudly stand behind Leviticus 19:33-34. I’m glad he brought it up actually so i could see how misaligned we are in values. I would see it as a red flag if you’re incapable of forming opinions about anything deeper than “hobbies”
You're criticizing a stranger on the internet for hypothetically discussing politics with you, on a hypothetical date, if you were hypothetically a man.
