Why Are Many White Americans So Afraid of the Prospect of 'Mix-Blooded' America?

[jankren]

Is having a country full of 'half-caste' population like in Latin America so bad? Besides most immigrants come from South America and many of them are like at least 70% white. I mean even the kids at the mall with black-white parents whom I saw were almost as white as snow except for their curly hair then I guess it wont be any worse if white Americans 'mingled' with hispanics.

So que es el problema?!?

[danzig]

What are you basing white Americans having a problem with it? Interracial kids are becoming so common that too many cant be having a problem with it Only thing that bugs me is when people like Halle Berry declare she is "black" no sorry you arent or when Cameron Diaz suddenly decides after years of "being" white since hispanic is "in" she is now latino.

Don't know what planet you're on jankren, white's are the most accomodating and accepting of other cultures. The myth of the 'evil imperialist whiteman' is absurd.

Well atleast NOW a days Plus we still have our whackos but here in the US they are limited to posting on Stormfront about how "someday" and trying to get the few white women there to post their picture.

I have nothing against white people or anything but its just that I keep hearing about 'scare reports' that in certain decades or so the demographics of American population will change drastically mostly in favor of people of Hispanic descent. But so what? At my college even many of the Hispanic students look like they just came fresh from Spain or Portugal with blond hair and fair skin.

So even if Americans of Hispanic descent become the majority in USA, whites will still form the largest part of the population. Except maybe the average names will change from 'Bowman' or 'McPants' to 'Quixote' or 'Lopez'.

Well, I think it seems the whites of English descent are the ones who feel threatened of Spanish culture.

[Captain Arrrgh!]

I'll have to double check, but there was a news report regarding the leader of stormfront actually being jewish, and a member of an infulential zionist inet mediagroup.
Racial tension is on the rise, but it's not soley relegated to the white populace. Hispanics and blacks aren't meshing well at all right now.

So you think Euro-Americans should just 'take it in stride'? They've been the dominant culture, in all aspects. When they cease to be the majority, there will changes, and everybody fears change to some extent.

I used to believe that the "whites" were more racist than others. Then I came to live in Taiwan. Trust me, you don't want to be even tanned here.

Whites are no more racist than others. There is racism in every society. That is why I understand that some if not many white people are afraid of losing their standing as the majority because they probably fear that they will be trampled on when they become minority. But the issue Im bringing up here is that average Latinos are quite white themselves so if white people start intermixing with them more then white majority will still be maintained in USA.

The worst case scenario would be that USA turn into Brazil where almost everyone has a little bit of this and that blood but overall the majority of them still look fair.

Did you read yourself?! Youre maybe not racist but those words hold racist nature. Mixture of nations in USA or in any countries wont be a bad issue in no way. And it could take so much time we wont even care about it.

By the way what makes USA great is the mix of great minds who where white-american/african-american/ african/south-american/european/ asians; the opportunism (most of the time act when it was time). Would you say in Classical time that Rome, Babylone, Macedonia, Egypt, fell because of the mixture. Mixture is a great strength to a nation.

The reason for this is that the vast majority of the upper class of hispanics in Latin America are of primarily European descent.

So even if Americans of Hispanic descent become the majority in USA, whites will still form the largest part of the population. Except maybe the average names will change from 'Bowman' or 'McPants' to 'Quixote' or 'Lopez'.

Most of the hispanic immigrants coming to the US today are actually from central Mexico, and they are mestizos. The white hispanics in the US are either Cubans or earlier generations of Mexican immigrants, who came from Northern Mexico where the population is much more European.

Well, I think it seems the whites of English descent are the ones who feel threatened of Spanish culture.

The Americans who feel most threatened are actually blacks. Blacks have traditionally filled unskilled positions in the US, and they've been displaced by the "new and improved" poor people--hispanic immigrants.

Hispanic immigrants do not at all threaten the dominant position of whites in America, even if they were to become a majority. Chinese and Indian immigrants theoretically could, but their numbers are few.

Rather, large scale hispanic immigration will result in a large, permanent underclass and transform the United States from a European style civilization grounded on civic patriotism and a market dominant majority to a civilization with a market dominant minority and a series of squabbling ethnic factions.

40 years of sustained mass immigration have provided scant evidence of hispanics assimilating like earlier generations of European immigrants. 44% do not speak English and the average IQ is 89. About half of hispanics who grow up in the US drop out of high school. Illegitimacy rates are high as are birth rates. Furthermore, hispanics bear children at an earlier age. Welfare dependency and crime rates are high as well.

It's not so much an irrational or racist fear of hispanic culture (although I'm sure there are some racists motivated by this), as a very genuine concern over how this will transform our nation.

97.3% of statistics are made up on the spot.

I thought it was 40%?

Mmm, may I see your reference?

Why are many Muslims so afraid of the prospect of a "Mix-Blooded" Muslim world?

What do you mean? If by 'Muslim World' you are talking about the Middle East then as a cross-road region the population there has always been 'mix-blooded' since God knows when.

Anyway, I begin to understand that WASPs actually are only afraid of foreign culture dominance not the people of different races.

I'm not

Now a prospect of us becoming having to become bilingual to accommodate to people who should learn english on the other hand..

Yeah this is the main point of argument I think as far as resentment. I think few white americans have issues with hispanics except when you bring up failure to integrate, most want to see hispanics add to american culture not attempt to carve out its own little mini latin american. I cant tell you how absolutely pissed I get when I hear "speak spanish?" by someone on the phone, it is highly irritating I usually answer back no do you speak Italian and they are left confused...especially when they can speak english just fine but for some reason want to speak spanish.

[boofhead]

Why do non-white American outsiders hold the general opinion that whites are racist? I live in a multicultural land, and the most racist group I have come across are certain light brown-skinned upper-caste people from India. They look down their snotty noses at everyone else, even though they usually run crappy little family corner stores. A successful, wealthy white or yellow or black lawyer or politician may walk in to buy a chocolate and they still manage to assert their retarded sense of superiority while they poke at the cash register, the whole while using their peripheral vision to assess the actions of such lesser breeds.
