With trump being guaranteed to win the 2024 election and it also being likely that the state will be much more violent, what do you think is going to happen in the US over the next few years?

They're gunna' be like 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th generation non-Americans and probably have interracial parents or grandparents that's gunna' give them light-enough skin to pretend to be white or white-adjacent. Imperial core is super-good at making imperial subjects and the imperial core lifestyle seem appealing to them.

I could see colorismo being imported from Latin American countries, but it'll probably need to be a conscious imperial project.

I don’t think it needs to conscious at all. People’s zip codes being passed on, while occasionally being acquired by minorities, will be enough for the colorism to organically grow.

In ten years? I don't think so - I think it will take a light skinned white supremacist as President or something.
