Ugh. So sad. They were wiped out clean. I always wonder why Puerto Ricans refer to Tainos as "warriors" or "gods". They might easily be the weakest and most naive tribe in all of the Americas. Dudes submitted(lol) and handed over all the gold, goods and women to the conquistadors. It actually really breaks my heart. Sad, conquered people who have yet to break free.Originally posted by Bardock View PostOh man, this one is going to break Pcrusha's half-dead heart
"In recent years, a small but growing number of Puerto Ricans, Cubans and Dominicans have adopted an exclusive indigenous or Taíno ethnicity. They have done so despite evidence showing that pure blooded Native Americans became extinct in the western Caribbean by the early decades of the seventeenth century, if not earlier. These individuals have also played fast and loose with concepts of race and ethnicity. They have done so with words and phrases such as;extinction; and ;indigenous survival; to justify their claims. In the early part of the last decade, Puerto Rico's news media made a big deal of studies that showed that 61% of Puerto Ricans had a trace or a small amount of indigenous DNA dating back to the sixteenth century, passed exclusively through a single female line of ancestry in an individual's family tree (the mother's line). This finding was used and abused in an exaggerated, self-serving manner by would-be later day Taínos and their advocates as evidence supporting their claims for an exclusive indigenous pedigree. However, another study was largely ignored at the time (and since). It that showed that 70% of Puerto Ricans had European DNA, along with 20% who had African DNA and only 10% who had Amerindian DNA; this time passed through a single male line in the individual's family tree (the father's line). As it turned out, these studies, when considered together in a sober manner, provide actual evidence for what had been concluded all along by scientists, social scientists and historians; Puerto Ricans, Dominicans and Cubans have been and are persons of genetically mixed backgrounds. Eventually, these studies were also criticized for their very limited utility because of two characteristics. First is their focus on distant ancestry. Second, their focus on single male and female lineages that ignore thousands of other males and females who contributed genetic material to an individual's family tree during the past 500 years. Ongoing research since the last decade undercuts claims for an exclusive indigenous pedigree by would-be later day Taínos and their supporters. So called ;autosomal; or ;admixture tests; show that Puerto Ricans, Dominicans and Cubans are persons of mixed ethnic background; mostly European and African. with significantly smaller percentages of the indigenous and others. These studies have also been criticized for their limited utility, but they have also been judged to be more reliable than studies that focus on distant ancestry and on single male and female lines of ancestry (See table and sources below). Claims have been made by would-be Taínos and their supporters that substantial numbers of Taínos fled into the mountainous interior regions of Puerto Rico, Santo Domingo and Cuba in the sixteenth century and remained biologically pure in isolation of Spanish colonial society in the centuries that followed. These claims have not been demonstrated. On the contrary, the genetic and historical evidence shows that surviving Taínos were joined by impoverished Europeans, runaway African ****** and others to form the mixed Jibaro, Guajiro, and Cibaeño peasant populations of rural interior Puerto Rico, Santo Domingo and Cuba in the centuries after 1550 or 1600. The claim by Anthony Castanha (as reported in a previous NiLP Network posting) that the Puerto Rican Jibaro is Native American is, therefore, patently absurd. It also needs to be said that the genetic make-up of Puerto Ricans, Dominicans, and Cubans has little or no connection to the way race and ethnicity are socially constructed at the present time in the Spanish-speaking Caribbean and its Diaspora. The traditionally crude and simplistic Eurocentric concepts of race and ethnicity and their connected patterns of prejudice and discrimination, aimed mostly at persons defined as black or mulatto, continue to prevail among Puerto Ricans, Cubans and Dominicans. This has occurred despite efforts to promote a ;rainbow; model of race mixture. These concepts have also been adopted by the later day Taínos to justify their claims for a pure indigenous pedigree. This is, in part, an attempt to separate them from persons of African background and from Europeans ; especially Spaniards; who they see as colonial oppressors whose contributions to society and culture is to be ignored or rejected in the articulation of their identity.

Haha that's ****in hilarious. His lack of snarky rebuttals to all this Mexican talk is actually making me believe he's half Mexican lol.Originally posted by Hyacinth View PostHere's PeasantCrusha when he went as EXPOSEDheroes(lol the irony) before he was banned last year: "Morales always reminded me of My Father".

I wonder about when Danny KO'd Morales. You have a puerto rican who he idolizes like the father he never had, KTFO of an old Morales who reminds him of his actual mexican-looking father lol.
I'm sure he couldn't sleep that night as he was torn on what transpired. He probably finally let that ACER of his download new updates of windows and logged off the internet for a few hours. On one hand he still wishes he had a father. On the other, he hates him for dying and making him a confused wig-wearing overcompensating Kia driving bastard. Life can be so cruel.
BTW, this thread is certified NSB greatness.

Lol no one is envious of American citizens. And I wouldn't even be boasting about it considering Ricans can't even vote and the American dollar and minimum wage has crippled the economy. America treats Ricans like ****, no one in my family likes being "America." The first thing out of their mouths when discussing the topic is, "**** America."Originally posted by Puya View PostComment
