I keep asking this as information develops and the year goes on. What do you guys think?

    Full agree but with an addendum:

    • Latinos continue to rise in population and income levels from internal growth rather than immigration, increasing ethnic contradictions with whites who will increasingly fall into Great Replacement conspiracy holes.

    • Black people will continue to be left out of political discussions because no one wants to talk to them. Democrats continue to harness their revolutionary energy for votes, but lose control as the police state becomes more openly violent and collective memory increases mistrust with the establishment. The majority of black socialists become maoists as a result, because other groups refuse to adjust their recruiting strategies.

      Interesting, why do you believe latinos will rise in population (as a percentage I’m assuming) from internal growth? The way I see it lower income correlates with birth rate and I think latinos aren’t so much below the other races that it would make a large percentage shift, especially in the face of rising immigration from India

      I would’ve talked a lot about climate refugees from central and south america but they wouldn’t be US citizens which is what the question asked about

        I think that’s from official statistics by the us govt but I don’t have time to look it up right now. They’re at least projecting increased wealth. But yeah, I would agree that immigrants who aren’t citizens or who don’t have legal status will affect things in a way that’s not in line with official docs. But border security keeps getting more funding so it’ll probably taper off when the US becomes less attractive as a destination.

          Most US Latinos are very conservative/libertarian (i.e pro- I got mines , fuck y’all). They support patriarchy, fascism, and all the other capitalist things. This is why they are gaining wealth.
