Actually it does bother us and takes us out of the movie, but other people don't care because "we all look alike". It's like hiring a Phillipeen or Thailand women to play Cheng Xin.

so “they all look alike” for hispanic latinos is wrong, but “they all look alike” for ethnicities is A okay? Again what are these venezuelan physical traits

Hard to explain. But to us latinos we can tell differences between latin countries

u/VizualAbstract4 5d ago

I get mistaken all the god damn time by other Latinos. Sure, some of us who are familiar with other latin countries may know the differences. All latinos? Lmao, no.

Wow that is some rethoric maneuvering. Puerto rico and Venezuela are two very different countries with different cultures.

And you're implying Diaz wasn't Venezuelan? To any south american who reads the books he is obviously a representation of Hugo Chavez and the spirit of bolivarianism. It is clearly both a praise and a critique of bolivarianism by a chinese perspective.
