A "Caste" is an ancient system of social hierarchy based on one's birth that is tied to concepts of ethnic purity and social status.

During Spain’s Barbaric colonization of Mexico, a caste system was established and brutally enforced reinforced. This system created a rigid social hierarchy that determined the rights and privileges of different individuals and groups. Although this system has evolved over the centuries, it still affects Mexican society today.

Having primarily white media personalities helps them perpetuate white worshipping, that's the whole point of them just having white actors in a majority tan skinned country.

The demographics of media personalities influence how different racial and ethnic groups are perceived by the audience. If the media predominantly features white personalities, it can create a sense of hierarchy or superiority among racial groups.

A list of things that are responsible for white worshipping today.​


  1. Colonialism and Imperialism: Historical colonization and imperialism by Western powers led to the imposition of Western culture, values, and standards on colonized regions. This legacy can still influence perceptions of superiority and desirability today.
  2. Media and Pop Culture: The global dominance of Western media, including Hollywood movies, fashion magazines, and advertising, often portrays Western standards of beauty and success as the norm. This can lead to the internalization of these ideals by people from diverse backgrounds.
  3. Economic Power: Many Western countries have historically held significant economic power, and this has influenced the perception of their superiority in various aspects of life.
  4. Globalization: The spread of Western brands, products, and lifestyles through globalization has made Western culture more accessible and appealing to people worldwide.
  5. Colorism: Within many societies, there is a preference for lighter skin tones, which can be linked to the historical association of lighter skin with higher social status. This preference can contribute to white worship and perpetuate colorist attitudes.
  6. Racial Stereotypes: Stereotypes about different racial and ethnic groups can lead to bias and discrimination. These stereotypes can be reinforced by media and social norms.
  7. Lack of Representation: Underrepresentation of non-white individuals in positions of power, leadership, and media can perpetuate the idea that whiteness is the norm.
  8. Socialization and Education: People are often socialized from a young age to value Western ideals and standards, which can be reinforced through education systems and societal norms.
  9. Implicit Bias: Unconscious biases can lead individuals to favor white or Western attributes without being aware of it.
  10. Systemic Racism: Structural racism, which includes discriminatory policies and practices, can reinforce white supremacy and the idea that white culture is superior.
Addressing white worship requires a multi-faceted approach that includes education, media representation, challenging stereotypes, promoting diversity and inclusion, and addressing systemic inequalities. It is essential to recognize that these issues are deeply rooted and complex, and addressing them requires collective effort and a commitment to social justice and equality.
