If you're an ethnic minority Conservative, you just can't win. The idea that you are not “really” black if you have certain views, and that departing from those views makes you a ‘traitor’, is straight up racism that harks back to the Victorian era.

What would we do without all of our Black and Hispanic conservatives??

I’m not conservative by any stretch, but I am a center-left Latina. Even saying that causes contention among the “Latinx” crowd. Many Latinos don’t support the term “Latinx” and it irritates me when hearing it. The term only serves to make non-Latinos feel a useless solidarity among us.

Well I don't know what that has to do with my comment, but thanks for sharing. Latinx is a very dumb term, I agree
