About
"Are You A Racist? Do You Hate Mexicans" refers to the opening quote in a 2022 U.S. Senate campaign video featuring Ohio Senator J. D. Vance, Donald Trump's Vice President pick for the 2024 Presidential Election. The video was posted by Vance in 2022 before he was elected a junior United States senator. Parodies and memes of the clip, including one in which Vance is made to say "Are you a faggot? Do you hate vagina?" began making the rounds in mid-2024.
Origin
On April 5th, 2022, J. D. Vance posted a video to X[1] as part of his 2022 Ohio Senate campaign run, gathering 7,000 likes in two years on a video that opens with him asking, "Are you a racist? Do you hate Mexicans?" (seen below). In the video, Vance says that the media wrongly derides Republicans as racists for wanting to "build Trump's wall" and that he "nearly lost" his own mother to the "poison coming across" the border.
