“Mexico gained its independence”

It wasn’t a gift. it was armed revolution

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mexican_War_of_Independence

The Mexican War of Independence (Spanish: Guerra de Independencia de México) was an armed conflict and political process, lasting from 1808 to 1821, resulting in Mexico’s independence from Spain. It was not a single, coherent event, but local and regional struggles that occurred within the same time period, and can be considered a revolutionary civil war.[2]

It was okay when Mexico did it to Spain but “wrong” when Texas did it to Mexico?

Fool, do you have a point? If so I am not “getting” it.
