How does one pronounce “Xochitl” ?
So-she’ll
DUMBASS PARENTS.
The pronunciation aside, everyone should understand its political significance.
It’s a Nahuatl name - i.e., Aztec. That’s the name of the Aztec language.
The Reconquista movement in this country is based on an Aztec origin myth - Aztlan. They claim North America is Aztlan, at least the Southwest when pinned down.
It’s no accident that her parents named her that. It means they are Chicano militants. It’s a roots name that takes them back to the claim that they are the indigenous here - the Northern Southwest and Plains Indians be damned - those too were their enemies.
The absurdity of calling her an “American” and letting her have a seat in the US Congress is beyond belief. She has one goal - overturn the US Constitution, use it against the Americans to reverse their “occupation” of “stolen land” and cede it to the rightful Aztec owners.
The 14th Amendment doesn’t compel us to label our enemies as “citizens of the United States”. There’s nothing American about her, anymore then Reyes Tijerina or Corky Gonzalez.
You can tell right off the bat that it’s a communist you’re dealing with when it’s a Mayan/Aztec name instead of a (Spanish) Christian name.
I think I’ll run as a Democrat for office. Going to change my name to Glaxitotl Glimsamertaf. Just to show I’m down with the indigenous peoples.
