It isn't. But she's THAT type of US latina that flaunts every stereotype and then gets mad when people down here view them as clowns. She's also from Florida and a Republican, so 99% chance she's a gusano too.

this is kinda racist. yeah she's a gusano but fuck racial stereotyping. we don't owe you either adherence or non-compliance with racial stereotypes because the categories themselves are made-up bullshit.
It's more of a cultural thing but I understand your point.
Edit: It's more like how the Irish feel about plastic paddies. There's nothing wrong with being proud of your ancestry and trying to adopt some of your cultural past to your life. The problem is when you engage in disgusting behavior and use your ancestry as an excuse. People like this will come down here and start fights, scream at workers, say rude things to locals, and then claim they can't help it because it's their culture. Somehow we're supposed to agree because we're latin.
mate, "I'm not racist, it's just their culture" still fucking sucks. you're still assuming the reality of racial categories and making it the responsibility of the colonized to break from categories they devised or consented to.

this sounds like a class problem, not race! you think rich whites are any different?
Except that isn't what I meant when I said that. It's absolutely a cultural thing because Latin isn't a race. Most of the people doing this happen to be white themselves. I mentioned plastic paddies as an example of white Americans with Irish ancestry doing similar things in Ireland.
It's a little complicated as to whether it's purely class with how close our countries are and how inexpensive it is to get here. I wouldn't be surprised if those with money carry more of the entitlement complex.
her being latina is not the problem
