Tired of constantly having conversations like this:

“Where are you from?”

“USA”

“But where are you really from?/But whats your nationality?/Are you actually american?.. like… full american?”

American isnt a race! American =/= white. Yes im “full american” even though im ethnically latino! If you want to know my ethnicity/race then just ask me that instead of implying im not a “real” american.

I know most people asking this arent doing so from a place of malice, but damn does it get tiring after the 100th time.

    No lol…latinos are included in the white category there. Moreover it doesn’t include the illegals which are many millions in the US.

    Find statistics for every big city like NYC, LA, Chicago, Miami, Houston ecc and white are like 25-30%. And among the under 18yo even less. The only place where whites are the majority in the US is in rural areas.

    Again, it ain’t the 60s anymore.

      White alone not including Latino or Hispanics 58.9%

      This is literally the government census.

      New York city

      https://www.census.gov/quickfacts/fact/table/newyorkcitynewyork/PST045222

      “White alone not Hispanic or Latino” 31.9% and the biggest ethnic group

      I’m not going through every city in the US but white people are the majority.

        That doesn’t account for illegals lol, do you even know how many illegals are in the US? Tens of millions, mostly in big cities.

        Here is the demographic composition about NYC (not including the illegals):

        The city’s population in 2020 was 30.9% White (non-Hispanic), 28.7% Hispanic or Latino, 20.2% Black or African American (non-Hispanic), 15.6% Asian, and 0.2% Native American (non-Hispanic). A total of 3.4% of the non-Hispanic population identified with more than one race.[48]

        If you include illegals, the % of whites is no more than 25% and most of them are in Staten Island.

        Here is the data about Miami (not including illegals):

        - Latino: 70,2%

        - White: 14%

        - Black: 11,9%

        - Asian: 1,3%

        Ecc

        Here is the demographic composition of Chicago (not including illegals):

        The racial makeup of the city in 2020 was 35.9% White, 29.2% Black, 7% Asian, 1.3% Native American or Alaska Native, 10.8% from two or more races, and 15.8% from some other race.

        Here is the demographic composition of Houston (not including illegals):

        - Latinos: 44%

        - Whites: 23,7%

        - Blacks: 22,1%

        Ecc

        Here is the demographic composition of Los Angeles (not including illegals):

        The racial/ethnic/cultural composition of Los Angeles as of 2020, according to DEC redistricting data, was as follows:[2]
        Hispanic or Latino (of any race): 46.9%
        White (alone, not Hispanic or Latino): 28.9%
        Asian (alone): 11.7%
        Black or African American (alone): 8.3%
        Two or more races: 3.3%
        Other (alone): 0.7%
        Native American (alone): 0.2%
        Native Hawaiian and Other Pacific Islander (alone): 0.1%

        And btw these numbers always point in the same direction, whites are trending down more and more each year. If you consider under 18yo the % of whites is less than the official one reported in every city.

        Whites in the US are the majority only in rural areas.

          Do you know how many they are? No one knows the true number and even then they aren’t American they’re illegals.

          This I agree with, the white population of the US is decreasing and will continue to decrease.

          Whites in the US are the majority only in rural areas.

          But that makes them the majority overall.

          Literally the official statistics all say the same thing, that white people are the majority. Maybe illegals will change that but no one knows the true number of illegals.

          You can pick and choose areas where white people are the minority and I can pick and choose areas where white people are the clear majority but overall white people are the majority.

          https://www.thoughtco.com/should-us-census-count-illegal-immigrants-3320973

          “As currently required by law, the U.S. Census Bureau attempts to count all persons in the U.S. living in residential structures, including prisons, dormitories, and similar “group quarters” in the official decennial census. People counted in the census include citizens, noncitizen long-term visitors, and immigrants, including undocumented ones.”

          So even the official statistics will include undocumented immigrants but of course it won’t be all undocumented immigrants.
