    Surprised people aren’t saying she isn’t a “real” Mexican because her last name isn’t Hispanic. That shit is really annoying.

      Oh they are, in the last debate she was criticized by the PAN candidate Galvez for wearing adress with the virgin of Guadalupe since she isnt catholic/mexican.

      And the expresident Fox said she a "Foreigner and a jew"

        Nothing worse than when Mexicans feed into the stereotypes foreigners have of them being a monocultural brown race.

            Guatemala isn’t much better. We also have a weird subgroup that’s oddly Mayan nationalist despite being more connected to Hispanic culture.

              What's wrong with Mayan nationalist? It seems to have a national-liberation potential, since the Mayans were trampled on by Spaniards, if not the more blanco and creole current rulers of Guatemala...

                Nothing wrong with it when it’s actual Mayan people. It’s cringe when it’s a bunch of Ladinos cosplaying stereotypical indigenous groups. Think of them as the equivalent of American hoteps.

        Incredible. For comrades who are less aware of who she is, not only was she born in MX, both of her parents were as well.
