Absolutely bizarre to me that visible minorities would skew conservative
Yes and no.
You have to remember that a large percentage of visibly minorities come from very social conservative (or even just straight horrific) counties, and there's a heavy passing those values to their children. Religion often plays a roll too.
They may also be anti immigration due to racism against other minorities, even at the peril of their own group.
The most overt racisism I've ever encountered personally was the treatment of Koreans in Japan for example. I know some of the other groups absolutely despise each other too.
It's a complicated situation unfortunately.
Same with people with disabilities don’t they know that conservatives would cut the programs that help them…?
