I get exactly what you are talking about.
There is living memory in my house of being on the receiving end of 1950's white exclusion of minorities. The same person has also had bad experiences with Mexican nationals for not being fully culturally Mexican. Does that person judge all whites and all browns by those experiences? No. Is that person sympathetic of illegals from Latin America and American brown supremacist agenda? No. Is there a victimization complex on some who are described as minorities? Yes. Is this complex universal with every person of the minority "persuasion"? No. Within the Nation of Mexico among Mexican citizens as a part of the Mexican national consciousness is there a cultural inferiority complex with an endless litany of rote victimization claims, many concerning the United States - and by extension, white Americans? Yes. Do all past and present Mexican nationals and descendants of Mexican nationals ascribe to victimization theory? No. Are there white Americans, at least one who has posted here, who would (or have at least expressed a general desire to) come to my house to evict from the nation a life long, American born citizen with the spurious charge of being an "Anchor baby"? Yes. And I promise a lesson for any who presume to do so. I agree that migration in larger numbers than assimilation can handle is harmful and that such policy allowing the problem needs to be changed, however: Quote:
Illegal immigration is not about race, and if anyone on the anti-illegal side makes it so they lose precisely because it's not 1956 anymore. It's that simple.
