a term, usually used by racists who are masquerading as "progressives" who are upset about
Donald Trump's victory in the 2024 presidential election. for context; latinos shifted heavily right, especially in Florida and Texas.
the actual meaning is fucking coconuts. it implies that the accused hates their own race (wtf?), and only has their beliefs (usually
socially conservative) due to that factor alone. the majority of latinos care about the economy, it is not out of left field for them to shift heavily either left or right.
this term is often used to deflect from actually analyzing the reasons as to why latinos are gradually shifting right (as of the mid 2020s) so heavily. this is often due to the person using the term being legitimately unable to comprehend how minorities care about more than just
identity politics.
by the way, I am not trying to downplay the real self-haters out there, all I am saying is that its merely a hasty generalization to assume all latinos are like that.
Tl;DR, self-hating latino means a latino who hates their race, frequently misused by progressives.
