    They’re gunna’ be like 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th generation non-Americans and probably have interracial parents or grandparents that’s gunna’ give them light-enough skin to pretend to be white or white-adjacent. Imperial core is super-good at making imperial subjects and the imperial core lifestyle seem appealing to them.

      I could see colorismo being imported from Latin American countries, but it’ll probably need to be a conscious imperial project.

        I don’t think it needs to conscious at all. People’s zip codes being passed on, while occasionally being acquired by minorities, will be enough for the colorism to organically grow.
