We're talking about white europeans, which clearly don't include Spanish people of black or middle-eastern background, but good attempt at trolling.

actually I'm a black spaniard who is fucking sick of seeing 'all spaniards are white' on here every fucking day. sure you mean light-skinned people, whatever, but it's fucking annoying to see it. we do exist and I'm just tired of seeing blanket statements that exclude us.

sa - I'm being oversensitive but I am tired of being treated like a tourist in my own culture and these stupid blanket statements on here just rub salt in that wound and piss me off

I'm sorry you felt offended. I did thought you were trolling. I assure you I'm aware of people of all sort of ethnic backgrounds from Spain, but the thread was specifically about light-skinned people (and the sub-thread, about light-skinned people from Spain). I didn't mean any harm by what I said.

For what is worth, race is a terribly complicated issue in Latin America. We deal with huge amounts of internalized racism, with lots of people wanting to be considered "white" if they can pass for it even if almost all of us have mixed ancestry with our respective originary indigenous people. Thus the blanket statement, which I reckon was a reckless thing to say - I should have been more specific.
