How did I come across as "ignorant" Take this from someone who has been to Guatemala. Anyone who knows anything about Guatemala would say what I said.

"The countryside is beautiful and the people are descended from one of humanity’s major civilizations, the Mayans."

You can cherry pick nice places from anywhere. Places like Mexico, Baltimore, South Africa, Brazil, Detroit and Guatemala have have some nice places here and there but let's be honest like most of South America it's a poverty filled shithole and most Guatemalans/South Americans would even agree with me on that.

I didn't establish a hierarchy of nationalities. It's like I'm saying it's bad to be Irish or Lithuanian in a moral sense I'm saying it's bad from the perspective of a Irish or Lithuanian person. Both Ireland and Lithuania are pretty shit tier countries and are very miserable places to live.

As a woman and the op I wonder this myself.

Nice to see someone liked it.

Your welcome

Your not. A lot of people think I'm autistic because of the way I speak but in reality I just have an intellectual disability:(

Why are Americans so obsessed with Ireland? They are always so desperate to prove that they are Irish for some reason. Like, out of all the nationalities you could claim to be why "Irish"? That's like me trying to say that I'm Guatemalan or Lithuanian. Sad thing to be, nonsensical thing to want to be. If you tried to convince me that you were French or Spanish that would make sense you know but Irish? Not even the Irish want to be Irish.

I feel this post.

Back when I was 16 my teacher held me after class and told me that me wearing yoga pants and skinny jeans was a "distraction" his words not mine. To this day this story is an odd source of pride for me. To be fair I couldn't blame him.

Ok that's great and all but what if someone outside of a ethnic group can do a solid performance? As I've already said acting is all about playing someone you're not so I don't see the need for an actor to have the same Scottish-indigenous American-Mexican and Somali heritage of a character.

Dude, this is all ridiculous. None of these people are real and yet here you are writing an essay on the race and ethnicity of aliens in a fictional TV show. You're making a mountain out of a mole hill. I really don't care about the the race or ancestry of an actor any more than I care about the color of his hair or eyes.

Not really. If an actor is good enough that a role then why would they're race matter? Acting is all about being something your not so I don't see a problem with a Asian character being played by a white person or a white person being played by a black person. Also, why would people being hired based on merit be a setback for non-white people? Sounds pretty racist NGL.
