      This is the payoff for the state encoding pseudo-scientific “race science”. White supremacists have been courting “white hispanics” for decades in order to continue violently enforcing white privilege. Likewise with pseudo-scientific terms like “hispanic” and “latino” that are completely racist and eurocentric. It’s all a ploy to maintain the myths of race and whiteness, but most importantly the associated privilege.

      The insanity is people believing in the myth of “race” and the state encoding this pseudo-science, instead of actively fighting white supremacy.

      … on the 2010 US census form, of the over 50 million people who identified as “Hispanic” and “Latino” Americans a majority 53% identified as “white”

      It’s insane, I heard that those that are here legally are apparently very against illegal immigration (frankly also not that hard to believe).

      The thing is that with this administration who is here legally and who is not is very loosely defined.

        Funny that shows those being polled just like his hatred considering even trmp is pissed at his own low deportation numbers.

      I remember before the election, there were polls that said Trump was rising. Lemmy said “fake polls!” and “No way! This is propaganda!” And um, look what happened…

      EDIT: Then Trump gets elected, Lemmy has shocked face, and can’t understand how it was possible. Because there are a lot of people on Lemmy who refuse to listen to outside information if it doesn’t fit their narrative. And they’re outright hostile to anyone who talks against that narrative as well. So I believe the polls.

        You do realize Lemmy is not a monolithic entity, right?

          And you do realize that Lemmy has a very very large majority of people who are anti-conservative, right? So when people talk about Lemmy in the scenario I noted, it’s taken to mean the majority. And in this case, I mean the vast vast vast majority.

            I don’t know and I don’t care. I’m not on the same server as you are. That’s my point.

              And regardless of your server, the vast vast majority of Lemmy swings left. I wasn’t talking about individual servers, I was talking about the vast majority of Lemmy. That’s my point.

                  Gestures broadly at the whole website

                  You guys always ask for evidence for something that cannot be proven without data nobody has access to.

                  The main conservative sub was recently taken over and remade into a yet another sub to mock conservatives. In the thread about doin that many people said they didn’t want anyone even slightly conservative to even be allowed on the website. Some people arrested to argue they should be allowed to have a space and those people were heavily down voted.

                  Lemmy has an extremely far left bias. One might even call it radical.

      It’s probably real but given that his approval rating just dipped, this is just cherry picking data.
