They aren't even really white though. They are Brown skinned but with conservative beliefs.

Asians are basically almost there as it is tbh. Indians as well.

It's like Italians, Jews, Irish didn't used to be accepted as white Americans. Cause they undermined the Anglo Saxon Protestant tradition.

Or is it like saying killing 5 million Jews would’ve been alright but 6? **** that

As in they don't look like what we consider white. Not the guy from proud boys anyway. If he walked the streets in LA he'd be considered a beaner.

... No. No it's not.

We don't have the moral obligation to import anyone into this country. Importing some people is both good for us and good for them. Importing everyone is just bad for us.

That's why I differentiated white Hispanic. You see Hispanics as a whole being considered white in the future?

I don't know if they will or they won't. The preferable scenario is whiteness just becomes less important in general.

My original point was more that Republicans have been trying to recruit Hispanics and blacks cause they fear the demographics will render them irrelevant. So I believe they would be less hard line on immigration etc if they were more confident in these trends.

It'd be a good strategy, especially given the religiosity of those two demographics, but I don't see it happening right now. Proud Boys is just using it as a diversion tactic that's not uncommon for antagonistic groups. ****, a lot of streetfighter antifa organizations point to their name when accused of clearly fascist tactics.

Aren’t most of those Proud Boys poor?
