@city_of_sortz I know how to read, and i agree with Sherman oak homeowners association, criminal dug-addicted homeless individuals who don’t accept shelter and help shouldn’t be tolerated
@BitcoinBltnBrd@bendellwerry “American” ≠ blood purity. By your logic nobody whose grandparents immigrated is American either. Government defines nationality, not your vibes. Thanks for playing though. you are such a npc 👻
@wolfsangel23@bendellwerry That’s the 1790 Naturalization Act—limits on immigrant naturalization to “free white persons.”
It doesn’t touch birthright citizenship, people already in the territory, or the 1848 Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo that granted citizenship to Mexicans in the Southwest.
@wolfsangel23@SaxonLost@bendellwerry Mexicans a “mongrel race” with zero rights to the Southwest? Racist historical illiteracy. Indigenous + Spanish/Mexican settlers were there for centuries before the U.S. took it in 1848. Rights come from citizenship and law, not blood-purity fantasies.
@BitcoinBltnBrd@bendellwerry Most Californians are Americans. Citizenship isn’t determined by your last name or how brown you think someone looks. Calling people “obviously Mexican” as a gotcha is just low-effort ethnic gatekeeping. Being American isn’t a blood purity test for insecure nativists.
@wolfsangel23@bendellwerry Oh look, someone with no argument left so they pull the “you’re not American enough” card and throw a bean emoji. Classic. American history isn’t a private club for fragile nativists. Facts don’t care about your ancestry cosplay.
@SaxonLost@bendellwerry Your family showed up in the 1890s to a place the Spanish and Mexicans already built.The actual cession was 1848. Pretending the 1986 amnesty turned your “hometown” into a Mexican province overnight is pure historical illiteracy mixed with fragile ego. You didn’t invent the place
@WBrentJenkins@StatisticUrban Eventually” isn’t evidence. Missouri and Iowa changing doesn’t mean Wisconsin or Minnesota are destined to. That’s a prediction, not a fact. 😂
