While I know that Twitter threads can be problematic, I found this image that illustrates the point I am trying to make. For years, there have been debates about how Spanish America was supposedly more civilized compared to the English/Protestants, who are often accused of massacring the Indians and integrating them into the Spanish crown as "equals," and these debates are often approached from an antagonistic perspective. I notice that many "Hispanists" *related photo* make these arguments, and apparently the "Latin right" also makes these assumptions.

In addition, there is the idea that the Iberians were more open to miscegenation in general, in contrast to the racist chauvinism of the English. I would like to know to what extent these claims are legitimate and who started these debates
sources would be good
