Can we all realize already that nationality and ethnic group in many parts of the world are not the same thing.

There are people in Mexico who are indigenous, and there are people in Mexico who are basically European.

The Americas are very large, and every single part of them from Canada and Alaska down to Chile and Argentina has this dynamic in play.

Let people pick their own ethnic (and other) labels.

I know.

You seem to not realize that many people, including many Latinos/Latinas, consider this to be "white" by 2022 standards.

You know that Italians and Irish used to not be considered white?
