Tell me about México, what is their culture like?
I don't mean touristy spots or border hopping beaners, but like every day middle to upper class Mexicans, or like white Mexicans.
What are they about?
México
Christopher Gonzalez
Noah Robinson
>white Mexicans.
Those people don't represent Mexican culture.
They represent white supremacy of European exuding itself in the former Aztec Empire.
Mestizos are the real culture of Mexico.
Robert Barnes
Okay, so tell me about European Mexican culture then lol.

The aztec empire opressed and ate their poor neighbors. Spaniards just saved them.

>Guzman's troops everywhere committed terrible depredations. The first province he marched through was Mechoacan, the inhabitants of which still possessed abundance of gold, though not of the finest quality, as it contained a considerable alloy of silver, for which reason Guzman compelled them to contribute a larger amount. Casonci, the principal cazique of the province, boldly refused to give him so great a quantity of gold as he demanded, wherefore Guzman ordered him to be tortured, by pouring hot oil over his feet; but as the unfortunate cazique, notwithstanding all the torments he endured, still remained firm to his purpose, he was ordered to be hung.

When you're a white kid in a public school in the south, they call you things like "fantasma", "leche", or "semen".
Blake Brooks
I grew up in Arizona and they still called me "guerito" on the playground even though I spoke better Spanish than any of them. I feel your pain.
Luke Rodriguez
Leo Brooks
That's from Jalisco, which is like the most patrician state in Mexico. Also very culturally distinct.
Nicholas King
Im aware of where the dance originates
Parker Barnes
This is very accurate but for what OP asks is basically a copy of usa hipster culture, young people nowadays are very into liberal shit, travelling, festivals and club culture, married couples tend to send their children to private schools, and work from 9 to 6. Still all socioeconmic levels are very family rooted and the weekends are usually spended with grandparents, uncles, aunts and/or cousins.

>always late to everything
desu I fucking hate this.
I always arrive on time but fuck everybody that is late.
Charles Richardson
Just like irl in most countries? Do you expect the spanish crown to be able to control what their subjects did on the other side of the Atlantic ocean in the XVI century? Also, Columbus was prosecuted for his behaviour against indians, among other crimes.

Are you the autistic CHI from the Pic admittig you're not white or are you a random burger mocking him?
