Are Mexicans non-white?
Right now this dimwited idiot just answered my question with a joke about Mexicans, intending to be white supremacist
*comedy drums*
No Italians are not white and say "bro" and love "Seinfeld"
Nuyoricans aren't white and they say "bro" and love "Seinfeld"
Mexicans come from Spaniards, who in turn are descended from the Germanic tribe called the Visigoths. So no they're white.
Dumb idiots.
My dad was white, I'm a Guzman. He didn't speak any of the Latin you hear in Nuyorican movies with the accent. No his family spoke white Spanish.
IN other words, the moral of this question - I swear a lot of people are goddamn stupid
Chicanos - those descended of Native American descent - aren't white. They're also not proud Mexicans.
Make this from Mexicans to all Spaniard-descended people.
Riveras, Delgados, Santiagos, Ortegas, Vegas, Avileses, Acostas - they're not white.
Lopezes, Sanchezes, Gomezes, Perezes on the other hand are.
Yes I understand last names don't necessarily determine your race. But being most are of ethnically Spanish descent
The -ez surnames are Germanic surnames, hence white.
Anyone who's racist to them and considers Riveras white - also wrong, is a complete laughable buffoon. That's why I don't take "racism against Latin Americans" very seriously. Whenever there's a supposed report of a hate crime against them, I think's it's a hoax perpetrated by dumb people.
Hate crime against "Latin Americans" doesn't exist. Cause those countries are white.
Hate crime against Mexicans, Spaniards, Puerto Ricans is an oxymoron. They're white. Stupid sanganos. "Bro"-saying "Seinfeld"-watching Nuyorican Rivera non-white here.
Non-white South American/non-white Puerto Rican/non-white Central American/non-white Mexican/non-white Cuban, unless talking about Native Americans, is an oyxmoronic phrase.

You are very confused!
To clarify one of your confusions surnames are words they come from language origins NOT countries are chosen/taken from the language heard, spoken or which influenced the people choosing them and just like first names do not tell you anything about where people come from or where their ancestry comes from.......... as Mexico was conquered by the Spanish and so heard, spoke and was influenced by the language they took/given Spanish surnames, it does not mean they they were from breeding with Spanish, some of course were, most were not

Not necessarily... some Mexicans are Native American, others are mestizo (mix of Native American and white), and some are white.
