I am also Latina.
Are they quite reactionary? I’m thinking it’s just the specific conditions of my family being Labor Aristocrats or Petite Bourgeoisie leading to such reaction, and not any sort of culture or ethnicity. It’s just so disappointing. They’re extremely individualist, and believe fully in the “American Dream”- to such an extent that, when I make a joke about it (i.e: “You gotta be asleep to believe it”, etc), they get provoked.
They are either liberal or fascist. One of them is white-passing and believes in race science.
Oof, that is terrible. Mine are definitely reactionary, but not to such an extent- the most being their belief in racial stereotypes, I guess. My heart goes out to you, it cannot be easy to stand them, knowing that.
Thank you!
BTW, are you on Twitter? You seem familiar.
I know how it feels to be a part of a reactionary Hispanic family, so do not feel as if you’re alone in this type of situation. No, haven’t been on Twitter in a few years and definitely not on this name. Sorry for the super late reply. *edit: Actually, maybe, I do have a Twitter account with the same name but I doubt it was on anyone’s radar since I never posted anything, really.
