Lol 'people say I'm white' I'm a Latino guy and I live in California. In the bay area. Shit still happens a lot here so no surprise there. I've been working construction for years, one of the most akward moments was walking into the owner of the company I worked for saying he doesn't wanna hire Mexicans. Didn't even say sorry.

I joined my trade's labor union and I still know shit like that would get me in trouble. Some of these mo'fuckers tell us not to play Mexican music, IN THE UNION! THE DEMOCRAT ENDORSING UNION!

Also I live in the hood. In a apartment. I was doing a oil change on the street cuz I let my girl use the parking space cuz the apartment is gated. I'd done it before. One black guy thought I broke down and offered to help, it was a cool gesture. In the same spot tho, a white person that lived in the house NEXT TO the patch of dead grass I was doing the oil change in front of told not to service a vehicle IN FRONT of their house. Almost threatened to call the cops on me.

Plus there was growing up as a kid. The apartments I lived in with my mom had the pool next to some racist lady. When my mom used to take me as a kid she used to threaten her to call the cops if I got loud. When I went with my friends as a teenager she did call the cops and told them I didn't live there. The cop followed me to watch me open my door. Another cop waited at the pool with my all latino friends to make sure they didn't leave in case I didn't live there.

Also I can tell you white people are straight up worshipped by a bulk of minorities. Even if they complain about white people being ignorant or racist they still wanna date white people over others. One thing that drives me freakn crazy is when they got on me for acting 'stereotypical' for doing stuff I'm used to (listening to Mexican music, working manual labor, drinking tequila). But when a white person speaks bad Spanish or puts on a Pancho or says 'arriba' then it's cute 😒....

Shit sucks, but eh.. that's why I believe what I believe

P.s. Sorry homie. I posted on Reddit and it wasn't getting traffic then I learned why. Lol
