@Killsocialmedia Whites aren't allowed to feel offended when they're vilified and insulted. Pointing out hypocrisy is racist.

Jajaja, Grant, you look like a gringo! Jajaja!!!!

You don't want to be confused with a Mexican than you can start by not using Mexican slang.

inferris177 rosa Glad to see you know your facts. At my father in-laws funeral in Coamo I was surprised to see all the graves of PR veterans from all the different wars. His brother is retired Air Force. It changed my whole attitude. When people say speak English you’re in America. I say when you fight and die for your country you can speak whatever language you want. And as quiet as it’s kept Spanish is PRs first language.

Puñeeeeee boricua de pura cepa

many are

Es tipo "se me jodio el arroz"

oml so many people have said that...

Ima start sayin that 😂

Maybe you should wear a T shirt saying: "Don't confuse me with white. I am really Puerto Rican." For those who look black it should read: "Don't confuse me with black. I am really Puerto Rican" That would definitely elicit a broad smile of approval from Anglo and Afro-Americans who see it.

Then they'd say "whats that"?. Lmao

😂😂

Right

Well not all the time but when we do it's so we don't get mistaken 😉

Ariel Taverniti so? Being gay isn't something great. It is the same as any other thing, so instead of focusing on LGBT 🏳️‍🌈 focus on celebrities, music, etc. As you may see, Puerto Rico have a lot more of those than the Dominican Republic, and let's not even start with the numbers by capita. Y por último, focus on the history. We are one island that we don't have to share it with anybody else, we are one if not the whitest country in the Caribbean. While Dominicans? You are all a bunch of Haitians hypocrites

Too bad that they don't love independence in the same way.

Bruh yes. Todo boricua in the US has at least 1 flag or some flag themed swag in their closet. That's a FACT.

Why? You don’t even want independence, you want daddy America to come and fix all your problems because you can’t do it yourself. You should be ashamed to wave that flag

@@radrook7584 wtf you talking about

It was once illegal for the people of Puerto Rico to fly their own flag! Thank Gd it can be flown now. New York’s Annual Puerto Rican Day Parade began soon after this ban was lifted. 🇵🇷💃🏿🕺🏿

Tania Reza Dominicans are loud

As a Mexican in a Puerto Rican neighborhood, Puerto Rican’s talk like every word they say must be heard by the entire world

It was a joke, why u freaking out, Puerto Rican’s tell me that all we say is guey

yo but i can't roll my R's tho 😂😂 and my last name is Ramos so it's sounds like Lamos

If that is true why did the USA invade Guam and the Philippines to drive the Spanish Empire out of the Caribbean. They must both be in there somewhere.

Kathleen Feliciano lol yeah and then they're like 'prove it' 🙄😒

Kathleen Feliciano right! The follow up question is always "do you speak Spanish then?"

Kathleen Feliciano yup. I feel ur pain

Super lightskinned lol just call it whiteskinned

Kathleen Feliciano me

XXX Underhills that’s our accent

I bloody have a hard time pronouncing the r in Puerto,This happens especially when I am speaking fast in Spanish. No reason to have a problem with people's accents.

I mean it’s kind of embarrassing not knowing how to roll the R

we know how to roll our r, we just don’t, yknow, cause we can.

YaGirlG you white

I'm bengali and people think i'm rican, dominican, mexican or south american

I am 💯 Puertorican and almost 1/2 my family blond blue eyed green eyes and brown eyes

Well, Cubans contributed a lot in salsa, so it's also ours.

Puerto Ricans and Cubans created La Salsa together

@@thelegend27isalive46 true. Cubans and Puerto Ricans ran salsa. I feel like Puerto Ricans tend to think its ours though because majority of the big salsa singers were puerto rican.

You wanna know what's worse seeing someone walk into a puerto rican restaurant and ask for Mexican food.

Ariana Meléndez same!!!

Yeeeesss!

They're really fucked that shit up, those isolated people

I am really sorry for my people's ignorance lol.

So do you guys have Internet over there? Just kidding hahaha😂

I live in Texas, and it seems to be a pretty common thing for people to call everyone with brown skin Mexicans. But I have grown up meeting people here who are from diffferent places....including Puerto Ricans. I've wondered how often my nephew, adopted from Honduras, has been called a Mexican as well.

I’m definitely gonna use the song when someone questions if I’m Puerto Rican cause I’m half Puerto Rican.

GO SUBSCRIBE TO “ALEX THE RICAN” He is doing a CASH GIVE AWAY.

Puerto Ricans come from a main mix of Africans, Spains and Taínos(native tribes) So there is a big variety You can see blondes, redheads and brunettes. Black with dead hair, trigueño(lightskin, that is more taíno than black) with green eyes and white girls with afros. People around the world tend to think that Puerto Rico is mainly made of black people. I am fair skin with hazel eyes and brown hair. My mom is black with afro and my dad is white and blonde. There is a lot of that in Puerto Rico

@@leyshkavivas5920 Verdad!..That’s th beauty of being P.Rican..mi familia is like that..Variety is a Spice of Life!..jajaja🇵🇷

Facts

Africans know it too. It's one of the most common things we get beaten with. Either as a melee weapon or a ranged weapon it is just as dangerous .

I swear people be thinking Mexico is the only Spanish speaking country, but at the same time they think Brazil speaks Spanish🤣(and yes it pisses me off) but I love the Ricans tho!

Lol in my school when I tell them that I'm half Ecuadorian they are all like oh you're Mexican and it pisses me really off

True Aquawrius Baby what’s wrong with being Mexican? ...

@@ashleycontreras3028 its not wrong it just invalidates other nationalities to think that If u r hispanic u have to be mexican

Wopa🇵🇷❤

Sherry Ortiz same happened to me ,about my green eyes..

I'm Cuban and that happens exactly to me. I have green eyes and white skin and people be like: "You're Cuban?? But you're so white!!" 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

Im puerto Rican but i am so white

MY AUNT HAD BLUE EYES,AND THE FAMILY OF MY EX BOYFRIEND HAD THE MOST BEAUTIFUL GREEN EYES I HAVE EVER SEEN. THE SKIN WAS BEAUTIFUL BRUNETTE AND BEAUTIFUL GREEN EYES. THERE ARE BLACK PEOPLE ON THE ISLAND ON LOIZA ALDEA, SOME AROUND THE ISLAND,BUT THE REST ARE MOSTLY FROM *DOM REP AND HAITI.* PUERTORIRCANS ARE MORE THAN 75% WHITE.

Alot of my cousins are very fair with blue or green eyes, thats all I have known, so when they ask me how come you dont have black curly hair I go huh?? Yeah so dumb. It all depends where your ancestors came from before they came to Puerto Rico, did they mix with others or not. My family is generally pretty fairskinned , some of them they are married darker skinned people so their children are darker We love them all. No favorites.

itnas88 as a Chicagoan most Puerto Rican's literally have the flag everywhere. I won't say all but the majority do.

itnas88 Here in Florida Puerto Rican's are the most self-obsessed Latinos out here. They wear their flags for everything. It's funny because it isn't even a country. Or a state...😂

angel ivan so you understand why the need to rub the flag on everyone's face

angel ivan really? then what is it then? 😒

angel ivan it's part of the united states so it's a state. so get your facts right

Is gringee when other latinos say Puelto Lico XD. That's not how we talk. We only change the R for the L after a vowel (when we say Puerto for example). Y arrastramos la R before vowels when the R is after another vowel or when the R is the first letter of the word (when we say Arroz or Rico for example). And also we change the S or Z a lot for the J when we talk but is a weak sound (when we say Arroz or arrastrar for example). 🇵🇷.

@@oneforall5615 i totally agree with you some ppl keep making fun about the way we talk when most ppl from different countries or places also talk with an accent and everyone is fine with it but when it comes to our accent ppl make fun of us

@@Naiii_3 tamo activo 🇵🇷

That's bc Puerto Ricans aren't a color. We're mixed w Africans, Spanish, and Taino. So we're going to look like all of that under one flag/culture. We're more of an honorary black/white/tan kind of people and you just inherited that.

Yes I’m mixed with black and peurto rican so what am I 🥺

Puertorricans already have black mixed in us so it dont really matter. We are whatever we identify with 🤷‍♀️

Most Puerto Ricans are part black. I think u mean Puerto Rican and African American.

@@gabrielvaldes-ramos6980 yea

Ikr ppl are always asking me if I’m white even tho I’m 100% Puerto Rican like the fvck is there a special way I have to look like to be Puerto Rican🤦🏼‍♀️

Abby Andino Someone once said "I'm puertorrican" and the other one asked her and who's the dominican" and Then he said "Her" and pointed at me.WE WERE FROM THE SAME PART OF PUERTO RICO

puertoricans and dominicans arent all the same, not even all puertoricans are the same mix of european and african. And because theyre two different places we have a different dialect, and experience. for example puerto rico is a territory of america, so we are born citizens. The dominican republic is a different country. I don't hate dominicans lol I just didn't understand why my teacher couldn't remember i was from puerto rico.

Call ICE, immigration authorities to them.

It is. They’re ignorant. Stay away, live your life and be happy. Some of them get married to us for our citizenship and to take advantage of us.

amen.

​@@eddiesaninocencio7486 puerto ricans from the bronx barely hang out with mexicans when i was younger... the bronx was predominantly.. African Americans, Puerto Ricans and Dominicans....and Puerto Ricans/Dominicans beefed with Mexicans so i dont know where Puerto Ricans as a whole love Mexicans in the bronx come from but ill take your word

@@nooneknows9234 Thanks bro, you have a point.

Both Hispanics, probably Catholics, family-oriented and dance & music lovers .... Some differences though but yet a lot in common... I'm glad to know you are happily married to a bella boricua for some years and you are raising a loving family. God bless you, your daughters are blessed with the best of both worlds.

Definitely not judgmental about Mexican culture. I am however, judgmental toward people who insist that there’s no difference. I think a lot of us are tired of the dismissals. When we correct them and tell them we are in fact Puerto Rican, their response is usually something along the lines of “meh, close enough” or “same difference”. Like, NO, we are two different cultures and it’s not only offensive to Puerto Ricans, it’s offensive to Mexicans. The fact that they’re uneducated on those differences is bad enough, but to be dismissive when we correct them is just unacceptable and offensive. Then they turn around and twist it around to try and make it seem like we’re offended to be perceived as Mexican, when that is not the case at all. We’re just tired of every Latino/Hispanic being perceived as Mexican because they’re too intellectually lazy to understand that these cultures are distinct from one another. Just my two cents!

Actually there're a lot of Puerto Ricans that roll the r and double r !

Bianca Robles That is so not true. Every Puerto Rican in my family can roll their R's.

I'd like to know where you heard that from🙄

Flor De Isla The problem here is that I swear we Puerto Ricans have our own language.
