They are absurd. Hispanic is not a racial category, it's an ethnic category, like being German or German-American.

Yes. And putting Arabs and European whites in the same basket seems ridiculous, as there is anti-arab racism among white people (in the US) and, probably, the reverse is somewhat true too in some cases (there is a large diversity of situations among Arabs, it is not the same a poor Algerian immigrant and a rich Arabian prince). In any case, when you start using rigid classifications, you make the problem worse. Racism is there, but it is subtle and harsh at the same time.
