Mexicans born in America, as well as Cubans and other Latin people are proud Americans and wave the flag with pride, especially the one with a blue line. We love this country and would die for it. We understand what our parents left behind and why they risked their lives and left everything they had to give us a better future. So when I hear about “privelege”, I laugh and think that the only priveleged assholes are the ones that grew up “poor in a racist system”. What a freaking joke. They all had TV’s, PS3’s, a car, and free food. They have no idea what it means to be “poor”. I grew up in the ghetto of a city, and not only did my parents teach me respect, but taught me the importance of work and self-reliance. And I have done well for myself, and I’m a proud REPUBLICAN LATINO, just like many of my latino friends, that voted and support TRUMP, even when we have to sometimes deny it like when Judah denied Jesus. I never believed in the victim argument, that’s just an excuse for lazy people that don’t teach their kids respect and the value of work.
Why did your parents leave Mexico to live in the ghetto of America?
