I think you've used the term the most in this thread. I only use it to give readers an idea of my skin color, because in the past, I was a called a Mexican even though I speak English with no discernable accent.
"Mexican" was just a nationality group that was caucasian.
There was no notion of a "hispanic" minority group before they made that up. People had to be taught to use the term "hispanic"/"latino". No one ever heard of that! Social engineering made them into minorities.
Historically, no one distinguished them from other white people.
That’s a lie, and you oughta be embarrassed to tell it.
I’m not gonna bother to look for ‘em to post, but there were “No Dogs & No Mexicans” signs all over Texas. So don’t gimme that crap.

So why was it assumed that I was Mexican? What about me led to that conclusion, I wonder? "Go back home!" I know you cannot answer that question. I probably can. Maybe because I look like an Indian.

These are the lies the "hispanic" group is telling today. They had to invent a victim narrative that never happened to them.
There is still an abundance of people living who grew up in Texas in the 40s/50s/60s. Mexicans were actually regarded as white - even if they had brown skin. They normally went to white schools and white public places. There were no racial barriers for them. Everybody white or black considered Mexicans white.

The nice thing about growing up in Texas in communities where people look like Indians (don't want to continue using the H-word) is that many of them adopted conservative values. I still have them till this day. It is actually one of the main reasons I mostly vote Republican for local and state elections.
So while we did go to White schools, you used that word so I will too, we were discriminated against, not by all, but by enough to feel the divide. It's where I learned to ignore how a person says something and instead to pay attention to what they are actually doing. This single lesson was the one reason I knew it was possible for Trump to win. None of my friends would believe it here in Florida.

I often wonder if people on this forum actually believe their own bs.

Minorities in Texas could NOT go to white schools. So, although you may have been called names every now and then, you were not a minority.
