You can keep arguing otherwise but there are very few Latin Americans in the UK or Germany yet there are millions in Spain. This is clearly because there are cultural similarities - immigrants from...

It's interesting to me that this is a common assumption when it lacks support in actual data about immigration flows. More Venezuelans emigrated to Spain than Moroccans did in 2019 and more...

1. Yet Latin Americans emigrate to Spain at very high rates even though it's substantially poorer than Canada or the US, which proves my point.
2. This is objectively incorrect. There are data that...

The legacy of imperialism has made Spain very attractive to Latin Americans, as they speak your language and share much of your culture. They would surely seek to emigrate to some other country if...

Sure, Morocco is very different from Spain but is Argentina that different from Spain? There are nearly 300 thousand people born in Argentina who live in Spain. Argentina is certainly more of a...

The year is not 1888 man, you can stop pretending that your Dad is a veteran of the Army of Northern Virginia and adapt your life to the world we are living in, where the Confederate flag is flown...

The evolution of coping:
-> deport all Mexicans, stop mass immigration, Trump TRUMP TRUMP TRUMP
-> Hispanics are turning their backs on the Democratic Party and want LEGAL immigration, Trump can...

I don't think I've ever met a "Yankee" in my life. This is an ethnicity that no longer exists and anyone pretending that Yankees exist is playacting as a fat, slaveowning Confederate general - shut...

Expectation: immigrants come to Spain en masse, destroying Spanish culture.
Reality: immigrants come to Spain for a while and then immediately move to Germany using their passports because Spain is...

In my view, the widespread consumption of Coke has done more to ruin the health of Mexicans than anything else. It causes both obesity and diabetes. If water from the faucet is either unreliable or...

Mexico City is part of Mexico but it isn't representative of Mexico or even close to being representative really. Here's a clip of...

Thanks for sharing! It is fascinating seeing so many 23andme results along with photos and videos. It certainly makes me re-evaluate my priors about my ancestry - I'd estimate that I am 30-35%...

I don't trust this study but it seems that obesity in Mexico is basically correlated with affluence and the places where indigenous Mexicans live are the least obese:

If I am being honest, these posts baffle me. I am half Mexican and half European. I look exactly like you'd expect to me to look - I look like a "castizo". I have friends with similar ancestry and...

If someone asked about the average phenotype of New York City or Chicago, most people would be stumped: these cities are gigantic and highly stratified by race and class. Similarly, Mexico City is...

He looks like an overweight mestizo, perhaps with some african ancestry.

This is very amusing to me given that Peronism has always found strong support among the lower classes of Argentina, who tend to be rather mestizo in their appearance.

Phenotypes obviously exist but making very fine distinctions and attributing them to genetic background or associating them with some made-up group is a fool's errand. To give an example, the fine...

While any form of racial taxonomy is flawed, trying to analyze obese people and drawing conclusions about their origins is hilarious to me.
