How underwhelming. Shouldn't commie leaders at least be charismatic? This guy is boring and dull.
Neat how he’s advocating socialism, which was invented by “a white guy” while likely supporting Palestine.
These “free thinkers”.
“We are professional, anti-capitalist revolutionaries!”
Also, nice racism, Buddy, and California wasn’t “stolen”, it was bought, with money, because Mexico had “taken on debts it couldn’t pay” and had to “pay them off somehow”. This was also related to why Texas broke free from Mexico. Does he know that Mexicans and Spaniards fought alongside the Texians? Does he stop to think why that happened? Were Mexico’s debts unjustly incurred? Maybe! In part, at least. You could ask Americans about it. We’ve been selling off land and assets to pay unjust debts for some time now.
Who is everybody giving the money to? We can’t all be broke at the same time, can we?
In the meantime, go be a stupid hate-monger in some other country, and shove your Revolution up your ass.
This is what these idiots fail to understand, that all of that land was bought. Probably because they were too stupid to pay attention in history class. Mexico was so corrupt (and still is) that it couldn't pay its debts. And when that happens, assets get SOLD.
It’s also possible that our government lied about us actually paying them, and that the Mexican government lied that we didn’t pay them, both cases being in history books, school textbooks, and/or government publications.
I haven’t seen anything in any English publication contradicting the claim, but only just now realized I’ve never checked a Spanish language publication to see what their claims are.
Edit: Actually it’s a bit of both. America did purchase it, but under duress. However, Mexico’s claims were relatively sketchy, as they’d basically done the same “we got here first so it’s ours” schtick that they accuse America of having done.
It sounds like there were some forced seizures that shouldn’t have happened of specific land plots against specific people.
The complainants will talk about how “Mexico City is too far from California. It couldn’t be defended.” 1800 miles. DC is 2600 miles. Meanwhile, they had almost no people living there. Saying they’re totally wrong on their claims probably isn’t correct, but saying that they’re anywhere near pretty close to correct is also way off target.
Some sources:
The Mexican government sympathetic view still seems incorrect, but it’s interesting to see that there’s some validity to it. In that same way, there would likely also be some validity and some incorrectness on our future looking back if they took it back. Still, if they were smarter, they’d prefer to stay in our jurisdiction, rather than tribally seeking to restore it to Mexico’s.
Venezuela was also a slice of Paradise. Widespread corruption and sin can ruin even the nicest real estate, as can currently be seen in the US as well, but we have a far better foundation to rebuild on than Mexico does, even in California. They can feel free to FAFO and be as stupid as they want, though.
Scraping the barrel.
