Is it Racist to Hate an Entire Ethnicity?

I hate mexicans.
They come into my workplace, and they ask me for shit in rapid spanish at 9:30 in the night and expect me to know where the hell the damn jalopeños are.
No I don't habla espaniol, damn it.


Is it wrong to think that to effectively integrate into a culture, you should learn to speak its language? Sweden doesn't put up with this crap. And we are American slash British slash Canadian! We are better than the god damned Swiss! (except their watches)


Here are a list of mexicans I like

also some of you are probably mexican, and I like all of you guys

have you guys had any language barrier problems that pop up in your day-to-day lives?
Gone to a taco truck and order something and the dude just looked at you? Looked at you and said "que"?


This thread's for you!

disclaimer: i don't actually hate mexicans, they are cool, I just don't like the ones that refuse to learn english and then get pissed at me for not knowing spanish

    The only Mexicans I don't like are the ones who would come through the drive-through when I was still working at Burger King. They'd drive up, speaking broken half-english, and expect their order to be perfect. Way to make an already difficult process near-impossible, douchebags.

    Yes, I'm fairly certain it is racist to hate an group of people based solely off of their ethnicity

    In fact, I'm pretty sure that's the definition of racism.

    I get that at my work too, but instead of burgers, I'm dealing with medication. And not just mexicans.

    I can only do so much for you if you can't understand one word I'm saying.

    Most mexicans I meet who can't speak english very well are pretty apologetic about it. The majority understand that it creates a lot of difficulties, at least in my experience anyway.

    I have more problems with Asians speaking broken English at my work then Mexicans, but neither is very common.
    But it's ok,
    because no matter how much I may dislike dealing with people who can't speak English

    it has got to be a million times worse being stuck in a country full of people who openly hate you because you can't speak their language.

    There's this one guy who comes in to the store I work at about half an hour before I get done with my shift to polish the floors. I can't tell if he's Mexican or Asian.

    I guess this means I'm racist.
