Don't accuse me of prejudice , if there's any prejudice it comes from Mexico. Why don't we celebrate Bastille Day? The French love their wine.Do Mexicans celebrate The Fourth of July? Celebrating a made up holiday by a f’ing beer company is a pretty damn sorry way to go about inventing a cultural affectation. Buzz off, you're a moron.

Oh no the prejudice is coming straight from bub. You hate everything Mexican, you said so, THAT is prejudice, pure and simple.

We don’t celebrate Bastille Day because Budweiser never subcontracted for any French beers. We celebrate Cinco de Mayo for the exact same reason we celebrate St Patrick’s Day. Another non-holiday in its supposed native land, but it sells a lot of beer Budweiser once distributed. Same reason Oktoberfest has become a thing here (at least that one’s also a thing in Germany).

Most of our modern culture was invented to sell things. Santa Claus: Coca-cola and Sears. Thanksgiving Parade: Macys. Copyright laws: completely rewritten at the behest of Disney. Welcome to reality you prejudice idiot. EVERYTHING in this country is to sell something. If that bugs you, maybe you should go to Mexico, they aren’t nearly as commercialized.
