I cringed so hard reading this article. First of all, races do not actually exist. They are called ethnicities. Second, EVERYONE is mixed. If whites were not mixed, you'd all be inbred by now. Any DNA test will show that not one of you is 100% white (white including formerly ethnicities considered "sub-human" by anglo-saxons, mind you). Like, seriously. You guys are centuries behind. But ok. You wanna act like barbarians, go ahead. But could you at least merge latino and mixed? Latinos are all mixed so if anything, it should be a sub-classification called "Spanish-speaking Mixed". And while you're at it, it wouldn't hurt to redefine Natives as Actual-Americans or something. In all seriousness, you people can't be this racist and then be surprised when everyone else hates your guts. -A latino

(Here ideological racelessness and not due to war, immigration or other causes.)

justification

1. Race is self-reported; it's not based on statistical genetics data.
2. The correspondence between corporeal attributes and social labelling is an idea. It's by no means self-evident nor the sole idea.
3. The survey option "other" doesn't suffice for the rejection of the surveyed notion itself.
4. Aracialists and ethnocultural nonconformists do exist and should be respected.
