This whole, "whites will be a minority" by 2042 is bogus

[liberalpragmatist]

Richard Stengel just mentioned it on the forum.

As someone who IS non-white, I get annoyed with this, not because I have any problem with it ideologically, but because it's simply not true.

By 2042, the portion describing themselves as "white" will go from 80% to 76%.

The only way "whites" become a minority is by counting Hispanics as non-white. That's despite the fact that most Hispanics consider themselves "white."

At various points in the past, Italians, Slavs, Jews, and even the Irish were not considered "white."

If we defined "white" as only Anglo-American, then whites are ALREADY a minority.

1. Who cares, we are all humans .

2. Amen!!!

Who gives a fuck what color people are in the future?

6. Same here. It's just "scare the White men" tactics

Make them afraid they'll lost their power and they'll do whatever it takes to keep it.

8. Thing is: most of them will be dead or nearly dead by then anyway

They're fretting about what people will look like after they're gone.

Now that's racism!

From the movie Bulworth: "Everybody just got to keep fucking everybody till we're all the same color"

That's as good a plan as I've ever heard.

9. And I personally don't care

As someone said, we are all humans first.

I am French-American. Hold two passports, speak two languages. Makes me a rarity.

I am already a minority.

3. It's weird.

I'm white, my kids mom is half hispanic, so my three kids are one quarter hispanic, 3/8 english and 3/8 irish. At school they have to write on their applications what their racial ethnicity is. Hmmm........... By some date in the future we will all be one race, the human race.

4. Show me the exponential functions demonstrating the claim.

5. I hope they are a minority. It will help us get over the bullshit.

I'm mixed, but usually everyone just thinks I'm white.


My little adorable niece is mixed with white, black, and hispanic.


I look forward to the day when we don't even care about this shit because we mixed people are the majority.


There isn't anything wrong with being pure or mixed, but I just want the b.s. to stop.


AND IT WILL.


AND DEMS WILL ALWAYS BE AT THE FOREFRONT.

7. Agreed.

When did Hispanics stop being Caucasians? And with all the mixed race people in the world, what does it even mean to say one is "white" anymore? Plus, I have read many times that the Negroid race is supposed to be absorbed into other races entirely before long. Where do people get this stuff?

10. Whites will no longer be a majority, but they will still be the largest racial/ethnic group.

That's not such a big difference except to paranoid racists who think "minorities" are a monolithic group out to get whitey.
