It turns out that Mexicans are as happy about US citizens legally moving to Mexico as US citizens are about Mexicans illegally crossing the border to live in the United States.
Sure, Americans are bringing their money--not asking the government to pick up the tab for their lifestyles--but the influx is apparently raising housing prices and diluting Mexican culture.
If you are in the United States illegally and wish to join the next protest in Mexico City, use the CBP Home app to facilitate your departure.

Now that's a twist I bet you didn't see coming. We have Mexicans and others violently protesting here in the US, making the claim that they have an absolute right to enter our country legally and get all sorts of US welfare benefits, and we have Mexicans violently protesting in Mexico to keep legal US immigrants out because they are diluting the culture. Even American tourists are too much.

At least I don't see Mexicans carrying any flags other than the Mexican one.

One might be tempted to believe that these people aren't so enamored of open borders as they claim, given that they believe that the border should be a one-way door similar to the ones you find at airports.
And, one might be tempted to believe that violence and looting are the bigger goal, and "social justice" is just an excuse.
"Gringos, stop stealing our homes."
Tourists were shouted at and store windows smashed during a protest against gentrification in Mexico City, where an influx of Americans and other "digital nomads" is driving up rents and pushing out locals. pic.twitter.com/OA0epvmKP7— DW News (@dwnews) July 5, 2025
Just sayin'. The common threads are violence, looting, and anti-Americanism. I don't see a lot of social justice, aside from "gimme more because..."
Oh.

Of course, we all know that foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds, and the minds of these people are apparently not little. So, consistency is not required of them. They have big hearts, big minds, and big appetites for...hating you.

There is one point on which all these protesters can agree: white people are evil. There is even a common racial slur directed at us--gringos--but far be it from me to point out that if a white person used a racially charged term it would be a firing offense.
If liberals didn't have double standards...
‘If liberals didn’t have double standards...’
They’d have no standards at all.
Ha ha! Lo zapato (the shoe) is now on the other foot. No?
Imagine complaining because legal immigrants are too productive and bringing in too much prosperity! You can’t make this s*** up!
Mexico City isn’t a sanctuary city?
You would have to have Alzheimer”s to even think about moving to Mexico.
Perhaps Americans should start selling the Mexican meth back to Mexico so it can ruin their lives and culture.
Yankee go home, again.
Are the policia stopping any of the looting and vandalism?
Ah,our poor expats....
Imagine the liberal brains exploding if a U. S. citizen held that sign at a protest in Los Angeles.
Will plagiarize.
Not sure what you mean.
In the US you have a government cracking down on “illegal” immigrants.
In Mexico the are protesting against “legal” immigrants.
The difference is lost to those living on social media and getting their feelings spoon fed to them via short video swipes or watching Telemundo.
I don’t have any problem with what these Mexicans are demanding!!!
I think it’s a great idea if law abiding Americans spend their money in America.
BKMK
Uninvited squatters aren’t welcome? I’m shocked I tell you - shocked.
That said I’m guessing there’s a good chance George (the evil one) Soros has money involved.. he stirs the pot because he lives to stir things up. Look for paid ‘organizers’. his demons from hell.
Shut down the border, then both sides will be happy.
Funny how Mexicans come here and speak Spanish, get interpreters in court for free, get all government forms in Spanish, get special help in schools for their kids to learn...
And then that @ss holds up a poster about how others need to learn Spanish to respect his culture.
St Michal de Allende has been an international destination for at least 40 years Artistic types spend winters there.
These are not squatters they are protesting but instead people who have legally immigrated to Mexico.
Just like the leftist city birds who move to red states. Nobody wants them.
