I thought we were gonna be so serious and politically correct. I’m glad not all of us were.

Both of my cats are not assholes. I swear they are not forcing me to write this.

It’s called History. Give it a try. Having a crazy amount of weapons did and didn’t help you before, so it won’t always give you the edge. History, though, always helps. By the way, this country is still called Mexico, which is a Nahuatl name, Nahuatl is also called “Mexicano”, which was the language most people talked before the “drunk conquistadores” came to this land. Maybe we Mexicans did leveled up the tech after all, it just looks like that for a childish country mentality.

I love history, but that was hardly a lesson. Anyway, thank you, I appreciate the comment.

And this is only to begin with.

Republicans won’t allow it. They win when people don’t vote, it’s a fact. They now dominate the legislative, so you can forget about it.

The real solution is to raise the interest of people in politics. Look at the south.

This is why he should do it now. It’s his ideas the ones founding the party, not him. This is still one right moment, the Democrats are in crisis and the people opposed to Trump feel strayed. Meanwhile, the Republican party is raving on their victory, but we all know Trump will fuck it up as soon as he is in charge the next year, leaving people disenchanted.

If one of those aligns with his political views, maybe. That doesn’t mean he will be allowed to steer that particular political party; and I think that’s why.

There are worse ways to be conservative. Hollywood likes to portray us as simple machos with moustacho, but we are complex men, to say the least. You should look into our history to understand how conservative we are.

Hidalgo, our father founder abolished slavery in 1810. The first black president of Mexico was an independence hero, Vicente Guerrero, in 1829. Lost half the Mexican territory to a nascent hegemony in the 1840s, but we still hold our ground since then. Benito Juarez and his comrades separated the state from the catholic church in the 1850s. We also have fought for a republican state against monarchies and empires surely more times than I can recall. Got rid of two attempts to establish a local monarchy. The second attempt led to a ~30–year dictatorship which ended with a civil war -the Mexican revolution- won by a democratic armed movement that made us culturally adamant of the idea of reelections in the executive and legislative state branches.

In the past century, a new form of dictatorship found its roots in the government since the 1930s. This system was completely corrupt by the 1960s. Again, workers and students spearheaded movements against this “perfect dictatorship” through violent and nonviolent resistance that led to the “dirty war”, which was the state disappearing, killing and convicting dissidents with the help of offices like the CIA, fighting in Mexico against Communism. In 1988, Mexico elected a progressive president, which was denied by an electoral fraud. In 1994, a declaration of war to the Mexican State by the EZLN called Mexicans, but mostly indigenous people, to arms.

Not many people publicly questioned the capacity of women to lead the country ten years ago, but the work to find eligible women in the political scene was only starting. Laws of parity in government existed but weren’t fully implemented. In 2018 the so-called progressive president Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador (AMLO), actively procured parity in the government, even outside the framework of the law. For example, the law didn’t say he was required to have parity in his cabinet, but he did. Add to this the remarkable career of Claudia Sheinbaum as a politician and her loyalty to the movement she found. The feminist boom of the MeToo movement probably cemented the idea of a woman president close to AMLO.

Some people consider the current leftist, progressive government and movement the heir of all these fights. That’s too recent to judge, in my opinion. But yeah, we fight. It’s taken so much blood and lives to found Mexico, we know we aren’t big in the world but our people have faced “big” names through its history (Spain, France, Austria, UK, USA, Germany…) and we are still around. A woman leading the country is not weird here. Weirdos are all those fuckers hitting and killing brothers and sisters all over the country. They’ll pay, we’ll remain.

You just gotta fight back and live your life. Sounds simple, but in my country, we lived through “the perfect dictatorship”. We know this shit.

He should found a new party based on his moral and ethical values. First, take over Vermont government, after that let’s see. He’s the only politician I know whou could pull this one in the American scene. He’s already independent and representing much more than Vermont.

And bye-bye porn! The PORN!

Sanders should do the AMLO and found a new party modeled following his ethical views. He will die soon, don’t bury his ideas with him.

They should come to Mexico.

There are always fighters like you which can’t be blamed. Nevertheless, most of the American voters are frankly deranged. As a Mexican who has been in the rural areas of the USA, it really fits.

I remember seven years ago. Beautiful IV Reich there with caged migrant kids, white Americans publicly scolding people for speaking Spanish, improvisation all around, xenophobia as a government policy, riots on the streets. A revolution is due.

You’d probably like Paul’s Boutique by the Beastie Boys. You may also wanna try Nujabe’s Modal Soul.

Well, they are kind of solitary animals. No one will warn them about something big getting close from behind.

You are kidding me, right? The video was uploaded by a pro-Ukraine influencer in X of all places. Newsweek reports it and suddenly it’s taken in this community as the truth? I’m not saying it’s fake either. Just saying, it’s easy for someone in Ukraine to look like a Russian soldier making up some story about how stupid North Korean soldiers are in the front.

And even if the guy was a Russian soldier, under torture anyone would say anything, even something as lousy as “NK soldiers can’t comprehend left and right”.

Interestingly, “vaccine” comes from the latin vaccīnus which means “from the cow”.
