While i'm living in a western country the natives don't refer me as one of their kind but simply referring me as Chinese despite i'm a holder of their passport. I have never encountered a single native be it white classmates/colleagues/teachers/strangers referring me the same ethnicity which is not a problem to me afterall i'm 100% Chinese. Even other minorities such as Turkish/Spanish/Polish/Indians/Viet/Indian or from other countries refer me as Chinese, the same applies to them they refer to themselves as part of their ethnic group despite not holding their native passports. Sure we can call you a Hong Kong citizen or a Chinese citizen if you also have a HKID and a Chinese passport so you are legal to reside in China but try ask any Chinese people in Mainland or HK if they consider you a Chinese after you tell them you are mixed. I'm willing to bet they will say you have Chinese and Mexican heritage rather than seeing you as a true Han. I don't see what the problem is referring yourself as mixed Chinese with Mexican background, no sense of pride of your Mexican heritage?
Sometimes you call yourself a Swede, then Australian then American then Chinese just because you have that piece of identification papers from these countries does not make you a Swede or a a true Chinese so no you are not one of us lol. You rather serve the US military than serving for the Chinese people should proof enough you don't like to protect Chinese but Americans and that has nothing to do with CCP. Man i had a good laugh when you claim you are one of us.
First thing first, paragraph is your friend, had a really hard time to understand what you are saying with all the point compacting on each other
Secondary here is your problem
i am willing to bet they say you have Chinese and Mexican hertiage....
The problem is you are mixing up hertiage and nationality
First off, I only say I am a Chinese, I never even claim I am a true Han, when I refer to my Chinese hertiage, I will always go deep and say I am half Chinese and half Mexican. The Chinese I refer to is actually that piece of paper saying that I am Chinese citizen, Swedish citizen, American citizen and Australian citizen
Ethnicity is another story, I don't know which part of swen you claim you live but nobody will ever ask me or refer to me as either Mexican or Chinese or Vietnamese, they ask where would I come from but they would think I am a fello swede even tho I am not white nor speak good Swedish
Same story in America and Australia, the only country where I will not be asked where I was from is china and its city, almost 20 years in both place and I have not even once asked where I was from beside HK or china
Where you can and even cd admit that an American can be of 100% Chinese heritage, so it can only be the reverse is also true
A Chinese citizen can be of 100% white as long as you pledge your right and responsibility to that county
Even in the army, no one ever refer me to as a Chinese, you are an American, plain and simple, you don't get to be call a Chinese or Hispanic just because you have their trace and heritage
So I see no point of stop calling myself a Chinese in the same flight with swedish, australian and american instead of Mexican and Vietnam which I have not pledge anything into?
So not calling myself a n Mexican and I Am offending my Mexican heritage?
By the way, there no Mexican heritage but the heritage is called Hispanic, and I am very proud of my Mexican/Hispanic heritage too
At least I speak Spanish better than Chinese, not because of anything, simply it is harder to learn Chinese that's all
