    My opinion is that it is a matter of individuals, rather than national origin. It's OK for full/mostly European descent Latin Americans, regardless of their Latin American nationality, to be Euro-Centrist,

    Indeed, I totally agree with you, and I can say that many times, it's not an issue of x or y country but who are more eurocentric are the different colonial élites everywhere.
    Even descendants of recent immigrants are not that eurocentric.

    Up to a point, but there has to be a point where immigrants and their descendants "put down roots", just like in other places.

    That's easy to say if you are born in a country where most of the population won't be racially much different from you, like USA, Canada, Argentina, Uruguay, etc, and because of that, you can easily develop a sense of belonging to that land. But same cannot always be said if you are born a country where whites/near whites like you are minority, and you cannot have the same sense of belonging with the majority of the rest of the population (that are racially different from you to a bigger or lesser extent), as in the aforementioned countries.

    Probably what I'm going to say, many users from this Latin American section won't agree with me (because they, individually, might feel different): but that's why in general, in countries like Colombia, Venezuela, Mexico, etc, many of the middle/upper class whitest people from those countries won't feel the same strong patriotism and identification with their native country as a white/near white person from USA, Canada, Argentina, Uruguay, etc.

    In my case, I'm son of a recent immigrant (my mom), and I'm very Eurocentric, y a mucha honra.

    I have a similar opinion to that because Argentines are majority European with close ties to Spain and Italy so it just makes sense, now when we put countries like Argentina, Uruguay and Brazil aside were left with majority Mestizo, Triracial and Mulatto nations that being that euro-centric just doesn’t make sense because how would a mentality like that even uplift and help the rest of the population when the majority of lower classes don’t even look like that and good representation is lacking then it would be probably Mexico tbh porque tienen esa fama de poner gente de países más europeos e europeos en sus novelas.

    Países como Peru, El Salvador e Honduras pueden ser con mentalidad casi igualita a la de Mexico pero esos países no tienen la media power para exportar esa mentalidad por toda la región

    Well I’m the opposite, Euro centricity wouldn’t serve me much since I don’t look white nor am I majority white.
