In person, you might be more reluctant to speak about this topic, but online, you are relatively anonymous. Hence, you can be candid on this question:

How do you feel about the upcoming minority-majority, which will make non-Hispanic whites a minority in their own country?

Are you angry or disappointed (be honest now)?
Are you happily excited?
Are you indifferent?

Though I'm a conservative wary of the political views of non-Hispanic whites, I'm actually not too concerned. I already live in NYC, where non-Hispanic whites barely compose 30% of the population; so I already live in a minority-majority. Consequently, I know, from experience, that a minority-majority doesn't entail calamity or decline.

I do have one minor issue though (it's a guy thing) -- I happen to find non-Hispanic white females to be the most attractive group, and conversely, (I'm sorry to say) I have never been sexually attracted to dark-skinned females.* The upcoming minority-majority therefore makes me anxious about the prettiness of our women!

(*Note -- Saying that I am not attracted to dark-skinned women is no more prejudicial than my saying that I am not attracted to tall women, brunette women, or fat women. I am making a purely subjective statement based on aesthetics alone.)

I accept our overlords with open arms.

Also, why are all the other NYC posters delusional republicans?

I don't care.  There's barely any difference between a Hispanic person and a White person now to begin with, outside of a few hyper-aware race baiters on either side.  I already live in a majority-minority area and love it.  There will be absolutely 0 difference when it happens, and I doubt by that point most people will be aware of it enough to care.

     I expect that the definition of "white" will change so that whites continue to be the majority, so whatever. The list of "white" ethnicities has been subject to plenty of change over the years.

I tend to agree with this.

The one thing I do hope is that we don't end up with a lot of people who speak poor English.

Considering I will be a part of it, and live in an almost minority-majority area, pretty indifferent. Though a positive aspect that I hope will come is a greater sense of empathy and awareness towards the struggles certain non-white groups deal with.

Don't worry, WV and adjacent parts of Appalachia are losing population

We somehow survived the Irish and Italians.  I reckon we'll get by somehow.

I am waiting for this impatiently.  I mean, I have been living in a country where (mostly, Hispanic) whites are arnd 15% of the population for a long, long time. And, trust me, when there are so few of them, they are easier to tolerate.

If I said the same thing about Hispanic people living in Indiana, that there are few of them and they are thus easy to tolerate, I might get kicked off this forum. You really should not be a moderator.

The difference being that one group has a history of absolutely sh**tting on the other - and in fact all minority groups.

You object to any of my moderatorial decisions? Or merely to my sincere dislike of whites?

As a proud Anglo-Mexican (or, whatever), I would like to stress that it is not a matter of the skin whiteness, but of soul blackness.

I'm genuinely enthusiastic.

Even in its darkest hours, America has always been a shining beacon of cultural pluralism throughout the world, and today it has the opportunity to show for the first time in human history that a multitude of communities can not only live together, but work together for a common purpose. Of course, I don't expect hatred to go away any time soon, but I am confident it won't prevail. And that should be an example for all of us, especially in Europe.

It was never "theirs" to begin with.

This. I doubt my grandkids will look at an assimilated Puerto Rican much differently than I do a Pole.

Most minorities have been oppressed far more than the majority. His insane and racist banter about a "sincere dislike of whites" should earn him a place in the ban pile with the likes of Violent Socialist/Asian Nazi(the now banned O-WA poster who made similar comments).

If be largely indifferent if not for people weeping tears of joy over "tolerance" or something. Stop that!

If I were to answer in-persona, I'd emphasize my conviction that, despite a skills deficit with most of the world, white folks have usually managed to come out on top, and take heart in that.

Looking forward to it.  Can't wait for the White Baby-Boomer pensioners, who have sucked the youth dry and left the planet a garbage dump, to die in their natural course.

You say that like it's something to celebrate and not really sad.
