Uncle Juan 

Hispanic version of an Uncle Tom. Uncle Juan is subservient to the dominant culture in hopes of winning favoritism. Uncle Juan's deride their ethnic roots and try to distance themselves as much as possible. Often they take pride in not knowing Spanish and are offended when Spanish is spoken to them. They generally view Hispanic culture as inferior and exhibit culture self loathing. Example, Trump supporter and Uncle Juan Marco Guitierrez warned that if Trump loses there will be "taco trucks on every corner"
Juan is such an Uncle Juan, he even went so far as to change his name to John.

Uncle Juan 

The Latin version of an "Uncle Tom", is a Latin American immigrant or person of Latin heritage who seeks to assert their "whiteness", whether inherited or aspirational, in order to privilege themselves above other members of the Latin immigrant community whom they deem inferior because of race or class.

This phenomenon can have many roots: historic racial & political divisions that were brought over from Latin America and which date back to the colonial era; a desire by some immigrants to "assimilate" and be thought of as "American"; long running feuds with the African-American community and other immigrant groups; or working-class resentments towards newly arrived immigrants viewed as competition in the labor market.

Shackteâu

A Shackteau is a humble, weather-beaten, structurally questionable shelter located in a spectacular or highly coveted place—Wales, Jackson Hole, Sun Valley, Crested Butte, coastal Maine, the Alps—where the building itself may be worth almost nothing, but the dirt, view, access, and mythology make it absurdly valuable.
In use:
Shackteâu - We thought it was an abandoned shed until the realtor called it a rare alpine Shackteâu with unobstructed views and listed it for $2 million.
