    ah ok so it's not so much a swing to the left as it is a prevention of a future swing to the right, if i'm understanding correctly. i guess that's something to celebrate? i really just can't figure out why mexico -- its leaders but especially its people -- aren't more left-wing, given how much they suffer due to yankkkee imperialism, so i'm kind of at a loss as to why they aren't more based

    Death to America

      Yhea exactly, it however also benefits some very reactionary local interests, so it balances out.

      I think the yanks just have too much influence.

      Besides that, Mexico has a propensity for fascism, it's one of those countries were the modern state developed alongside a warlord class instead of a capitalist class, so the state was modernity and the middle classes were beourocrats. So there wasn't the progressive force of new production arrangements, and similar to turkey this resulted in the warlords just assimilating into the resources of the modern state.

      As of now I think our biggest problem is organized crime, wich is backed by obama-drone

      And ignored by the Mexican government. Mostly due to collusion.

      Death to america of course
