Generic whites of course have influence everywhere.

Black people have tons of influence in the movies/TV, sports, and music industries.

Indians dominate tech and are also gaining ground in the rest of corporate America.

Jews still dominate law, finance, and politics.

Native Americans don’t have any influence, but like they got genocided and put in the most useless areas of America in reservations so it makes sense why they have 0 influence.

Asians and Hispanics are the mystery. Asians are very rich on average and highly educated so they should be controlling some part of the U.S., but they don’t tbh. Hispanics have massive numbers and could takeover the country, but they have almost 0 influence anywhere.

Why is this?

It depends on the area, there's no lack of Latino influence in SoCal, the Southwest, Texas. It was part of Mexico at one point and kinda still feels like it, especially in the rural areas. And when I went to Miami it felt maybe halfway to how I imagine the cities in Brazil or Costa Rica.

I’m not talking about influence through being simply present in the area in large numbers.

Like by that definition gypsies have tons of influence in Romania, or Arabs in Sweden, or Indians in the UAE. Influence means being at the top of a particular pyramid in very high numbers.
 
Hispanics control the drugs coming into the US. What are you on, man ...


PS: The Asians are smart enough to be hidden. They control most casinos in Europe. They never let anyone see anything illegal they do. No problem youth. They are strictly businessmen. They do their business and then leave.

lol I’m not talking about dominating criminal elements or whatever.

Also lol at the being hidden thing.

Most influential people are highly visible. Very hard to be influential (outside of the criminal underworld I suppose) if no one knows who you are.
 
You think us Hispanics have 0 influence in the us are you serious lmfao?

Arabs in Sweden and Indians in the UAE are recent immigrants. The Spanish and Mexicans colonized the Southwest and named cities and places in Spanish, populated the area before white Americans, there are a lot of border towns like El Paso that feel almost like they're in Mexico. Let alone the rural desert areas that are almost 100% Hispanic and always have been. That's real influence, many years of my life were in SoCal and the Southwest, driving around streets like "El Camino Real" and eating Mexican food.

There are plenty of areas of France where you feel like you are in Algeria and can eat couscous all day or whatever, but you’d be hard pressed to say that Algerians are influential in France.

I am serious. I’m from Texas which is a Hispanic majority state.

Despite being the largest group in the state they have shockingly little influence. Whites dominate the state across the board in most key areas despite being a minority. Even in super Hispanic dominated areas of Texas along the border non-Hispanic whites tend to form the upper class.

Cope dude. @yandex99 @Acion not every Hispanic in the us is a Mexican anyways or in the south/west coast.

You forget there’s a large demographic of Puerto Ricans, dominicans, etc in the northeast

Excluding a few top hits, Spanish language music is mostly consumed by Spanish language speakers. You’re coping if you think it has mass appeal in the U.S. anything like what black music has.

I’m talking about American society at large not whether Spanish music is popular in some Dominican or Puerto Rican area in NYC lmao.

I’m Dominican & Peruvian not Mexican JFL. Also Dominicans just look mulatto if they look “black”. Most “black Dominicans” just have dark skin but with very spainard features Thats why they look distinct from AAs.

I look like a standard like euro leaning mestizo a bit. Average Dominican here where I am is mostly castizo though.

Nah man great replacement theory is there for a reason. Hispanics have pretty much taken over the us (a lot of degenerate culture & garbage promoted though). Spanish music has blown up hard in the us past 15-20 years JFL bad bunny is global and very famous in the us. Average white gringo listens to him.

Even knew some types listening to Romeo santos. Every area in the us is pretty much filled with Hispanics JFL.

I’m not talking about things which affect SMV only lmao.

Dominating law or politics has done absolutely nothing for Jewish SMV, cause SMV is mostly impacted by the entertainment industry.

Obv this forum is only focused on things which impact SMV, but I’m talking about more than that.

If it was just affirmative action you’d see curries and whites also equally screwed in corporate America.

You dont though, both groups are over represented.

There’s nowhere in France that you can literally see into Algeria like how you can see into Mexico from San Diego, Interstate 8, El Paso, etc. And Algerians in France are a recent immigrant minority, if anything the French had way more influence over everything in Algeria when they ruled it. The Spanish and Mexicans ruled the Southwest and have always been the prominent population there. You can argue with me or just go on a road trip through rural SoCal, Arizona, and literally “New Mexico” and see if you see any Hispanic influence.

Ok fine, maybe Algeria is a bad example. Turks in Bulgaria? Arabs in Iran?

Been there for literally 700 years and despite making up a big chunk of the population, being the former rulers of the place, heavily influencing the culture, right now basically are a minority with no practical influence in key sections of society.

Even in El Paso non-Hispanic whites disproportionately form the upper classes.

Robert “Beto” O’Rourke ring a bell?
 
why do you think that is?

Whites have first mover advantage and are obviously much more culturally acclimatized to the U.S. typically as the vast majority of whites in the U.S. are not FOB immigrants. They do have anti-intellectualism culture, but it takes like several gernarions for that to start causing problems.

Curries make 0 effort to integrate (only topped by Muslims in this regard) so they’re extremely hated. They also are highly education focused though, so they can form a parallel power structure which they can climb up. Curries are also insanely tribalistic which most whites aren’t (but Jews typically are).

Asians make a ton of effort to integrate so they don’t create a parallel power structure as they end up being very similar to whites culturally, but they discriminated against by whites heavily so they can’t climb up a white dominated power structure despite trying to.

tribalistic successful minority is the prelude to a genocide story

As you said Latinos have a lot of influence, it is just that the places they have influence over have all become slums. Exception being Miami because that is mostly Cuban.

Been there for literally 700 years and despite making up a big chunk of the population, being the former rulers of the place, heavily influencing the culture, right now basically are a minority with no practical influence in key sections of society.

After World War I, there was a massive exodus of all Turkish people and all things Turkish from Bulgaria and the other Christian areas of the former Ottoman Empire. As for Arabs in Iran, that’s also way more contentious due to events in recent memory, Iraq tried to annex the Arab majority part of Iran in the ‘80s which started this huge war.

Nothing like that has happened in recent memory in the Southwest, even the border wall faced a ton of opposition.

The French influence in Québec and Atlantic Canada is the closest parallel I can think of to the Hispanic influence in the Southwest.

Beto O’Rourke is like a token gringo. My white blue eyed step-grandpa goes to a Spanish speaking Catholic Church in New Mexico and it’s the same thing, they love him. But what language is everything in, what religion is it, etc.

The slummy areas of Miami seemed way, way worse than any slummy area in San Diego, Phoenix, Tucson, etc. But it’s been over 5 years since I went to either so I’m not saying for sure.

The U.S. expelled like over a million Mexican-Americans during the Great Depression.

It’s just not well covered in US schools so people aren’t that aware of it.

I think this idea that Latino influence is so strong in the southwest is a bit of a cope. The moment the Mexican American war ended Hispanics went from being the rulers of the southwest to a detested minority subject to deportation and segregation.

The fact that they used to control the area is irrelevant. The Turks in Bulgaria analogy is very relevant since that’s basically the same thing.

They used to rule Bulgaria, lost power, became a hated minority and were partially expelled but are still present in the country in large numbers and there are parts of the country which are indistinguishable from Turkey.

 
What are the reasons for that?
Asian societies are very conformist.

Like Chinese/Japanese/Koreans are all very strict societies which require individuals to conform to very strict standards of cultural behavior. Japanese society expects its citizens to behave a certain way and people who don’t follow that are punished socially if not legally.

When Asians move to the U.S. they adopt to their new society and hence Ling Xuo becomes Michelle Xuo. They try very very hard to become American but they can’t cause America is a white country at heart.

India on other hand has 0 expectation of what behavior is normal for the country as a whole. Muslims are allowed to fuck their cousins, Hindus can drink cow piss and smoke marijuana, Sikhs can carry swords onto airplanes, and Christians can get drunk even if alcohol.

Indians when they move from one part of India to another don’t make any effort to change their culture at all to accommodate the locals so why would they do that when moving to some country half way across the world.
