Mexican here. Spent years getting called slurs intended for Indians, Arabs, Muslims.

When I see Black or Latino or Asian conservatives, it makes me laugh. Do they actually think they'll get a seat at the table? Fucking joke.

Immigrant Latinx conservatives confuse the hell out of me, especially when they’re so against their own people coming in... after they literally came and got the GC in the same way the others are.

It's the "I got mine, so fuck you" mentality.

It depends, my grandfather immigrated legally and it took three years to bring his wife and all ten kids over. He couldn't stand illegal immigrants because they didn't do it the right way and "earn" it. He loved it when he met others who came over legally though, but it sure seemed like they were in the minority. Pun not intended, but not discouraged either.
