    most Puerto Ricans are tri-racial with their genetic makeup skewing towards towards African. the three groups that led us to now are the indigenous Taino who were enslaved by Christopher Columbus, enslaved Africans, and as you mentioned the Spanish. i don’t know a single boricua who identifies as white. i’m sure they’re out there, but they’re just not who i’m knowing. but either way, white supremacy guages whiteness by proximity to power within a color coded society. so like… even if Bad Bunny were 100 of spanish descent it’d be as you say, similar to how the Irish, Italians, Romani, Jews, and Ukrainians aren’t white under the framework of american white supremacy.

    it’s also important to know that white supremacy isn’t a uniquely western European or so called united states thing. the all time promoting white supremacy champs are:

    • the so called united states
    • great Britain
    • Germany
    • Italy
    • Russia
    • Israel
    • China
    • Japan
