I agree that the elites in Mexico are mostly more European and less “Indio”
but you write like it’s all a plot....maybe I misunderstood you
sometimes things just fall the way they do
Europeans with a fairly long history of civilization and mercantilism conquer a land and run it pretty hard as colonial masters for a few hundred years and they end up on top since that culture now more reflects what they brought than what they conquered....at least at the top.
It’s not surprising. It’s simply not by accident that the groups that were more “advanced” 400 years ago now still occupy disproportionately the upper rungs in the cultures they either migrated to or conquered.
How much is a conspiracy is debatable.
Al Sharpton and Obama would say it’s all on purpose.
Most conservatives would say it’s more the natural result of things than that....not saying repression doesn’t have an effect. But repression doesn’t explain why some less advanced groups worldwide still lag for so long
i’m not into conspiracies. what i said is what i see.
i live in socal near the border.
for two decades i’ve read the los angeles times, which in the 80s and 90s had good reporting from mexican correspondents,
and the san diego union tribune.
also, i know mexicans, and i used to get my rx and dental work done in tj and nogales.
$4 rx and the price of gasoline have made me stay here.
i just got a crown done here and they’ve messed up two temporaries. i prefer my mexican dentist.
