The government wishes to add numerous politically correct categories to their already-flawed laundry list of races, but there are only three biological races: Caucasoid, Negroid and Mongoloid. Always trust the science! Or doesn't that apply to liberal bureaucrats?

Even now the government additionally claims the existence of "races" like Native American, Alaska Native, Pacific Islander and of course Other. Just what the hell would Other be? Klingon?

Then there's the relatively new (as of the 2000 Census) category of "2+ races" or, more accurately, allowing respondents to select as many different races as they desire to identify themselves. Seeing as how the leftist puppetmasters/media-controllers began in the 1990s their ceaseless campaign for miscegenation, that category had to be officially added as of 2000 so they could measure their progress.

Nevermind that at least as of the 2020 Census if not earlier, those multi-racial figures are MASSIVELY inflated -- coincidentally by almost the exact proportion that the White category has allegedly declined. You can see the evidence for yourself on this very website by looking at the breakdowns for practically any city, county, state or metro area in the nation.

Despite all that, anyone who advocates complete removal of the Race question on the Census, as some do, is an idiot. The purpose of the Census is to gather important information about the population. And if someone doesn't think race qualifies as demographically important no matter how the Bureau of the Census bastardizes the definition, then he/she/it (just wait until you see how the Bureau handles "gender" in 2030 if not sooner) is an even greater idiot.

Now as to things that information on race is used for -- such as discriminating against certain races in college admissions, and for any number of other discriminatory purposes by governments and liberal institutions -- that's a different story. There are good reasons to be color-blind in many instances, but being totally ignorant of racial demographics is the height of stupidity, and in some cases is quite dangerous.

Nothing unexpected here -- people are moving to the usual destinations (Texas, Florida, the rest of the Sun Belt) and fleeing from pathological liberal areas, especially California which has had net domestic outmigration for three decades now and led the nation again in escapees in 2022.

We often hear anecdotal BS -- worth about as much as trying to predict election outcomes from yard signs, or the opinions of a person's tiny circle of friends -- along the lines of "My new neighbor who just moved here from [California, New York, Illinois, or whatever liberal state] is a true conservative! I was shocked!" -- but it's really nothing more than selection bias. If you live in a decent area, then chances are that many of the new neighbors you get are decent people too.

Texas is a prime target for Californication although liberals from other states clearly target it as well. Texans who live in good communities may marvel at how conservative the recent immigrants from liberal states are, but if you go somewhere like Austin (notice all the California license plates?) and ask those natives what they think of the massive influx of new arrivals, they'll surely tell you how fantastic it is that so many new like-minded liberals are arriving in Texas daily and transforming the state from blue (proper color usage) to purple.

Who is right? Well, lets see:

Texas election results

At the presidential level, in the early 2000s the state was 10-12% more Republican than the national average even when there wasn't a Bush on the ticket. In 2016 and 2020 Texas was only 5 or 6% more Republican than the national average. The same declining pattern applies to other statewide elections in Texas, so it's not just a "Trump effect" -- and that's even with rural Hispanics supposedly moving toward the GOP.

So who is causing the decline? Blacks? Nah, they're already as far left as possible. Urban Hispanics? Ditto. The answer, to a significant extent, is White invaders -- from states like California. It's been an open question for years as to how long before Texas flips to the dark side. Within a few years we'll be looking back, surprised it held out as long as it did. Obviously, without Texas there is no viable "path to 270" for any GOP presidential candidate.
