      I’m brown, black hair, with 67% Aztec/Mayan ancestry and my mother was born in a village without electricity or running water, but sure, keep being racist

        and my mother was born in a village without electricity or running water

        What does that have to do with anything?

            What do Mayan ancestry and being raised in village without running have to do with each other?

            Is everyone of Mayan descent raised in poverty? No? Then is why he pointing out that his mother was?

            He’s just looking for pity points.

                What do privilege and oppression have to do with Mayan ancestry?

                Are all people of Mayan ancestry unprivileged and oppressed? No? Then why bring it up?

                Pity points 🙄

            On the plus side, with your parents directly related, the holiday planning is pretty easy to figure out

              Yes, diluting their race to extinction. This is not a “genocide” per se (though the slaughters were), and is to be expected from immigration - but it has led to Mayans’ distinctiveness disappearing.

                So you’re against racemixing? You literally just called it genocide, which is what a lot of great replacement white supremacists believe

                  I literally said it’s not, and that it’s normal, precisely because I’m aware of that very fact. Please read carefully next time.

                    “Deluting race into extinction” sounds like white supremacist rhetoric to me tbh. Just admit your takes about racial purity and “soft genocide” are shit

          The average mexican

          The average American is white and fat and 39 years old.

          Does that mean all Amercans are white, fat, and 39 years old?

          • There are an estimated 9 million Mayan people
          • An estimated 8 million live in Guatemala.
          • they speak these languages
          • Through the self-rule of states in Mexico and Guatamala and the legal framework known as Indigenismo maya people have a surprising amount of autonomy and self-rule.

            I know, it’s just improbable that they’d be on a place full of Americans, since they aren’t even common on Spanish language forums

            An American “Latinx” LARPing as a Mayan is a more likely option
