Americans who are half black and half Puerto Rican love using Puerto Rican identifiers as props to self-exoticize, but at the end of the day they will always primarily identify with black American culture. Don't let these people get away with calling themselves Puerto Rican.

Same principle applies to mixed white gringos, but they're also far less likely to make their Puerto Rican ancestry an integral part of their identity. Frankie Muniz and Vanna White aren't attending Puerto Rican Day Parades and insisting that everyone refer to them as Latinos.

It’s hilarious seeing the contempt with which Dominicans treat Haitian migrants, and comparing it to the way Puerto Ricans treat Dominicans: with the same sort of patronizing condescension that white American liberals show toward third-worlders. We really are spiritually gringo.

Dominicans be like, "white Puerto Ricans and Cubans are actually Dominican, but anyone from Santo Domingo who's darker than A-Rod is 100% Haitian." It's so bald-faced and delusional that you almost gotta respect it.

Also, being a supposed descendant of your 18th-century criollo elites who escaped in a wave of white flight isn't exactly an insult. It's like you're calling us the most authentic expression of European-Dominican heritage.

If you want to see the impulse that drives anti-colonial rhetoric in Puerto Rico, look at the social media comments section of a middle class white American moving to PR, and compare it to the comments section of a middle class black American moving to the same neighborhood.

Pathological levels of ethnic fetishization. Even the white man/Asian woman thing isn’t this creepy and prevalent.

Me deprime que la solución de todos a la crisis demográfica de Puerto Rico sea dejar que nos desplacen étnicamente. Todos quieren un Puerto Rico sin puertorriqueños; la única diferencia entre el PNP y el PIP es de dónde quieren que vengan quienes nos reemplacen.
Otra razón por la cuál ICE y el régimen Trump van en contra de los intereses demográficos de Puerto Rico

The best outcome from "You Can See Everything" is that it exposed a malicious sociopath. A malignant narcissist larping as a cutesy blonde Hoping Amanda Seyfried gets what she deserves.

Why do black Americans love lying about having Puerto Rican ancestry?
Chrisean Rock was PISSED after Blueface referred to her as a Black girl 😭💀 "I'm half Puerto Rican."

Puerto Ricans are inverse Dominicans

Black Americans have a sort of Puerto Rican one-drop rule, where if they have any Puerto Rican ancestry whatsoever, that becomes their primary ethnic identity. Doesn’t matter what their other 1/2 or 3/4 is.

La gente se está burlando de esta mujer, y con razón, pero así suenan los zurdos cuando hablan de nuestro desplazamiento étnico a manos de gringos blancos. Ninguno de los dos lados quiere hablar de quién está realmente facilitando nuestro desplazamiento étnico.

Puerto Ricans be like "our government is completely corrupt and incompetent, which is why they should have monopolistic control over as much land as possible"

Nuyoricans will betray their race, abandon their customs, distance themselves from their parents’ religion, embrace the worst aspects of American culture, and then wonder why their lives are in absolute fucking shambles.
