Why are Mexicans so racist ?

Answer 1

Contrary to what others may think, I believe that's a great question. Mexicans not only hate Whites (because they think the southwest was stolen from them), but they hate Blacks also. I think that they hate Blacks firstly because in Mexico, the slave trade went through there, so obviously, there is a history. Secondly, they see Blacks as direct competition because we both are an oppressed people who are fighting for every little bit of anything we can get. And finally, just like every other group of peoples, they just gotta hate Blacks because that's what they see on television.

Answer 2

I don't think this is a dumb question, perhaps not worded in the best way....I think it is a reaction to the sudden flow of racism on our side of the border (even racism from Hispanic peoples).
I have noticed more dirty looks cast my way in the past few years...it makes me sad but I don't blame them. If I thought every time I walked down the street I would have nasty comments thrown my way I'd get pretty defensive and have an attitude too.
The thing that upsets me most is that the racists are making it seems like everyone hates Mexicans (Hispanics but they group them all into "Mexicans"...more ignorance) and so are causing Hispanics to distrust and then hate all White people...
Case in point: check out Mr. we hate gringos, you are a bigot Sr. It's ok for you to hate but no-one else, huh?
Anyone who responds to hatred with hatred is only continuing the loop and is a hypocrite. You cannot lump everyone of one skin color, race, culture or language together. Every single person on this earth is unique. If you decide to hate individual people once you get to know them that's fine, but give them a chance first.
God...go sit under a tree and smell a few flowers or something....get it out of your system! (that goes for all of you hate filled people of whatever race, creed, or religion.)

the whites here are nothing..

but again all blacks in texas catch hell.mexican are basically just
workers willing to do anything for a job.while blacks are jsut kept out of the job market because they are
blacks.after living in asia and europe and the mideast find mexicans to be nothing but serfs..
blacks are so much more advance in life and education even through blacks are oppressed in america
and texas. i try to stay away from mexicans because i have several ivy league degrees.after
working on wall street for years i am wealthy and content with life. being around mexican is not
necessary for those of us who are educated.finally i live in spain for 6 years..
spain is basically a black nation is culture and outlook. they were ruled by blacks (the moors)
from 711 to 1492.. the food and music is all really black in texture and meaning..

Answer 4

This sentence is a paradox. Mexicans, a race of people from Mexico, are not all racist. Some mexicans may be racist because they are frustrated for the poor pay some whites give them for picking their strawberries. They may also be mad at the prejudice they get from other groups, hence fueling their own prejudicial thoughts,

Stop the cycle of hatred. If you're that mad at Mexicans for being critical of other races, prove them wrong by showing them respect.

Answer 5

It's called reverse racism. They perceive that because they are unwelcome as illegal aliens in the U.S. they have the right to reflect their perceived racism onto anyone who is against the illegal alien invasion. It is a hypocritical, and agressive approach that is based on pride. No one likes rejection, even when the rejection is justified.

Answer 6

When they have no good answer, as to why they are here illegally, they will do or say anything. So in other words, calling us racist, is just a cover up.

Answer 7

Mexicans may show a distrust for whites becuase since the early days of this nation, we have subjugated and destroyed, the latin american fabric of society. You'll be suprised to know that the U.S. has repeatedly invaded Mexico. ALMOST 1/2 of Mexico's land was stolen in a war forced by the U.S. This is the reason why Mexico is bitter towards America. In the U.S do you think we treat Mexicans fairly? NO. we dont. Hopefully this can offer you insight on what you just asked. SO REMEMBER American's are the one's at fault here.

Answer 8

I've known probably a hundred illegals in my life, and they're lovely, hardworking catholic families.

If we decide to tighten things up on the border, fine. All countries have that right. But demonizing Mexicans is just cowardly and gay.

Answer 9

Most of them, (like I said most) are racist of themselves, of who gets here sooner, or who get benefits sooner, or housing sooner, and who has babies sooner who can help them adjust their status..???

Answer 10

Anytime you have a fear of loss there is always defensive behavior. Insecurity is always there when looking back is not an option. Having no chance of a future makes them violent and angered but there's no reason not to try to understand another's fears, rejections, and insecurities. We all have them.
