Mexican American Appreciation Thread (to dispell myths about us)

[TheMan]

In light of Donald Trump making us out to be a bunch of rapist thugs, I just gotta make a thread about my people. The whole point of this thread us to show how we are just as normal as any other ethnic group in America, no better, no worse. We've been part of American culture since the US land grab after the Mexican American War :lol

Contrary to popular belief, we are a diverse people. I'll be posting celebrities past and present of full or partial Mexican ancestry, you'll be surprised at some of the entries...

I know there's a few racists like bigNBAfan who'll say something stupid so as a re-emptive strike, here's a fvck you douchebag fggot, **** outta my thread :pimp:

I'll keep this thread alive until after Mexican Independance Day, Sept 16

Mexicans are a bunch of rapist and thugs

















Just like everybody else

[knickballer]

What sucks for Mexicans is that every Hispanic in the US gets labeled as a Mexican. El Salvadorians, Hondurans , Puerto Ricans, etc, all labeled as Mexicans. So when you have El Salvadorians and their MS 13 gangs they get labeled as Mexicans and give them a bad name.

Then all the Hispanics further get labeled Spanish which sounds stupid to me as well...

I thought OP was black. There you go

Pretty much this

We got blamed for a bunch of shit we had nothing to do with. Americans hear a Spanish sounding name and right away think Mexican, like I bet most people think Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio are Mexican Americans :lol I'm not saying that's a bad thing in that instance, I'm just saying that they hear a Spanish name and bam, they're Mexican.

Do mexicans hate other latino people? Like do they have a country that is Mexico's France? Or Russia? If you spend a lot of time in Mexico but not in the cities, how present are the cartels? I have a buddy from a small village in central Mexico and says he sees them constantly when he's home.

I have a buddy from a small village in central Mexico and says he sees them constantly when he's home. I get along with other Latinos, I have friends from Cuba, Argentina, Uruguay and Puerto Rico, I guess it depends on the person. My brother is married to a Colombian (really hot girl) and plays baseball with a Nicaraguan team on weekends.

I don't even know where to go with your second question about drug cartels :lol My cousin back in Riverside CA did some time (he was small time) for selling weed a few years back but has since been completely drug free and out of the drug biz...I very much doubt that most people in Mexico know anyone involved in the drug business.

Lol @ most of the people posted being more white than mexican. If your going to make a fukn thread called "MEXICAN PRIDE" with pics of celebrities at least try and make the people actually representative of what a "mexican" looks like.

Jessica Alba recently took a DNA test and she was only 12% Mexican/American the rest was European blood.

"Tough guy" Mexican Americans in the south are some of the worst people

[NumberSix]

You could say the same for a lot of people that live in Mexico. Does that make them not Mexican?


And most of the people OP posted are 2nd generation Mexicans. Do Americans with Irish/Italian/German ancestry not call themselves Irish/Italian/German?
Yes, but those are actual ethnic groups. "Mexican" isn't. It's like American or Canadian.

It's sorta funny that this guy posts pictures of All of the white Mexicans and none of the Mexicans with a lot of native blood.

In my opening post I put that I was gonna put people of full and partial Mexican ancestry, regardless of the fact that she's actually about 25% Native American (Finding Your Roots had a more exact DNA test, they also did her father's), she has one Mexican parentand a French Canadian parent. She has half Mexican blood, it doesn't matter her European percentage :confusedshrug: Mexican is not a race, keep up...

haha so pathetic, using pictures of people who resemble whites the most to appreciate mexicans.

Newsflash, the overwhelming majority of Mexicans are mestizos = mixture of Spanish (European) and Native American blood...read a book.

Cavs FTW, I usually think you're a thoughtful dude (your Wilt stanning notwithstanding). Let me explain this as simple as I can...this thread is showcasing my people's diversity (I don't think I need to explain what diversity means, right?)...for some reason, you along with a few others think that "real" Mexicans are some type that I don't even understand what you mean, I have posted Mexicans of every type yet you keep saying they are European, really???

I think you're trolling right now, in fact I'm pretty sure of it. IF YOU ARE NOT, post pics of Mexican American celebrities who you think look Mexican. There are a ton to choose from, just google MLB players of Mexican descent :lol

Here's the deal dude, if I was as close minded as you, this is who I would consider a real American

Apocalypto is a bad ass movie, it potrays the Mayan Empire right before Spanish Conquistadores showed up in the New World. The ironic thing is that none of the actors who played the main characters were even Mexican :lol They were Native Americans from tribes from the US :oldlol:

Just like your idol, hold this L Cavs :yaohappy:

[HeatFanSince88]

The fact is if I were to go to Mexico right now 98% of the people I'd come across would look more like the guys CavsFTW posted. Not these cherrypicked celebrities with like 90% european blood. Fact

I'm not arguing with you. I just think it is kind of pathetic for a Mexican to show "Mexican pride" by posting people that look nothing like the bulk of the country. like I said earlier in the thread it's like someone going "european pride!" and posting a pic of Obama.

Anyways, can we agree that something like a National soccer team is a random sample of a country's male population? Like there is no racial bias to be picked to represent your country, either you're good enough or not, right? These are a few eras of our national team...

Hey bro, these dudes don't look "Mexican"...:rolleyes:

[senelcoolidge]

For the Mexicans, are you proud of your country? How they allow their people to free load off America?

[ISHGoat]

What's better than a Mexican? A dead Mexican.

[Lensanity]

I naturally become racist whenever I spend a lot of time around people that live up to all the negative stereotypes of their race. I used to love Mexicans because I had 2 friends that were Mexicans but my recent experiences with Mexicans have been terrible to say the least. Now I notice racist thoughts go through my mind when I see them.

Help

[9erempiree]

For the Mexicans, are you proud of your country? How they allow their people to free load off America?

This has nothing to do with Mexicans but Mexico is a shit country and they even know this. There is no denying the corruption and what the current president is doing to the country of Mexico. He's at a 30% approval rating.

Also, the ironic thing is that Mexico's borders are very tight and they are very strict in regards to immigration compared to the USA. They will not allow Guatemalans into the country.

They may have great people like the OP suggests but he won't be making a thread of how great the country of Mexico is. That's for sure.

[9erempiree]

What sucks for Mexicans is that every Hispanic in the US gets labeled as a Mexican. El Salvadorians, Hondurans , Puerto Ricans, etc, all labeled as Mexicans. So when you have El Salvadorians and their MS 13 gangs they get labeled as Mexicans and give them a bad name.

Then all the Hispanics further get labeled Spanish which sounds stupid to me as well...

I notice it to other way around. They get mad when you call them a Mexican.

[TheMan]

The Mayan civilization was fundamentally retarded. They sacrificed all of their strongest physical specimens by chopping out their hearts while they were alive. They all died out in a drought when their stupid water-well system ran out. Their solution was to sacrifice even more of their strongest warriors and agricultural workers to try to appease the weather gods.

The Aztecs who came later were equally retarded. They let themselves get destroyed by a con-man Spaniard and a few hundred guys. They had home turf advantage + outnumbered the Spaniards a million to 1 and still got owned.

This is what happens when civilizations grow up in the jungle and are fueled by cocaine and hallucinogenic cactus.

[Nick Young]

As far as I know, I don't have Mayan or Aztec blood, my ancestors were northern, Comanches to be exact...so your cheap attempts at insulting is a fail.

Didn't the Jews wander in the desert like retards for years :confusedshrug:

You're one to talk, 6 million Jews went out without a fight not even a century ago, stupidly walking into ovens :confusedshrug:
I'm not trying to insult you, or Mexicans. Why would you take this personally? I am simply stating my opinion that the Mayan and Aztec cultures that existed in the past were fundamentally retarded at their core, and built to fail. A civilization built on sacrificing its strongest workers and warriors has no chance to succeed.

The Jews might have wandered in the desert like tards, but they are still flourishing despite half the world trying to wipe them out. In comparison to the Aztecs and Mayans, the Jews are a strong culture.

The Jews did not 'stupidly walk in to ovens without a fight'. Despite the most advanced country in the world at the time trying to wipe them out only 70 years ago, the Jews managed to survive and flourish. They have contributed many great things to world culture and world science that the Mayan and Aztec civilizations cannot come close to matching. Only a retard would begin making antisemitic ignorant statements when confronted with facts about the collapse of the Mayan and Aztec civilizations.

Do you know anything at all about Mayan or Aztec history? Do you have any knowledge about how the Mayan civilization collapsed?

[TheMan]

The Jews a strong culture, my ass :lol They are everywhere but in Israel, is that country that shit?

They were gifted a nation by the UN, they were too weak or stupid to have founded one on their own :confusedshrug:

The only reason the Jews aren't swallowed by the Arabs are because the US let them have nukes and they are the US pets...if it weren't for 'Murrica, you'd still be wandering in the desert :yaohappy:

[9erempiree]

Mexico reminds me of the Philippines because I have heard Filipinos tell me that they are Asian and heard others say they are Spanish. You also have the ones that look Asian and the ones that look Spanish.

Mexico is exactly like that because you have the brown vatos and then you have the light skinned Euro looking ones.

The vatos seem to be the lowest of low, since this thread is filled with light skinned Euro looking Mexicans. The ones that came and raped all the women and children.

These light skinned Mexicans are a product of that.

You believe all Mexicans are product of the first few Spanish Conquistadores, lol. There were waves of Spanish immigration throughout the years. My great grandfather came from Seville, Spain.

On my dad's my great great grandparents were from Seguin, Texas. They were there before Texas split from Mexico, (this is were part of my Comanche ancestry comes from).

I don't have any info before that. Many of my relatives, especially on my mom's side have passed away.

No because I was born in Mexico (raised in Chicago), both my parents were born in Mexico and also my grandparents. Only my great grandparents on my mom's side were from Europe.

Why would I claim being Spanish, I've never even been there.

Among my circle of friends back home, most have a European ancestor, mostly from Spain, some like my wife, have some French ancestry.

It's not that uncommon :confusedshrug: Especially the higher in economic status that you go in Mexican society.

Israel has fended off all surrounded Arab nations several times, before they ever had nukes.

The Jews founded a religion on their own, a religion that inspired and layed the foundations for the two biggest religions in the world today. They also own like 90% of the Nobel prizes. That is hardly weak and stupid.

[LexiKhan]

Of course he didn't. The Mayans completely wiped themselves out 500 years before the first Europeans ever appeared in South America.

Huh? No, there were numerous mayan communities, people just assume because their cerimonial centers were abandonend they had been wiped out. There are countries out there (like Guatemala) were they are the majority.

But anyways this just serves to point out that this whole Illegal immigration in the US is an issue of racism. People just don't like to see an overabundance of native looking Brown people walking in their streets but generalize all of them by calling them mexicans, so when someone calls them out on it they just deflect it by saying "lol mexican is not a race". But then OP creates this thread and what happens? "Lol, you are posting white dudes, they aren't really mexican".

So what does that tell you? You simply have a problem with amerindian people (which is an actual race). But I'm not making any judgment on that since I don't live in the US.

The Mayans are wiped out brah. The people who ran in to the jungles after Mayan society fell have been intermixing with other tribes for a thousand+ years and do not have anything in their culture resembling Mayan culture. They can hardly call themselves Mayans, as they aren't Mayans. The Mayans are gone. They wiped themselves out because their civilization was inherently unsustainable and retarded and they thought they could change the weather by murdering their strongest men and eating them.

You calling Guatamalans Mayans is the same as me calling all white British people Picts. It would be a historical falsehood.


I don't have any problem at all with Mexican immigrants, even ones who sneak in illegally. If anything, more respect to them for sneaking through that border gate manned by armed guards and getting out with their lives. That's a massive risk to take and earns my respect. Loads of times they work their asses off and are entrepreneurial and start businesses to support themselves and contribute to the community like ice cream trucks, cleaning services, gardening and landscaping agencies, shaved ice stands or mexican restaurants. They pay their own way, create work for themselves or find jobs, and generally are pleasant people to hang out with and are good at soccer/football. Many appreciate what it means to be in America more than Americans born there do. Some of them even have talented football playing children who will grow up to join the US national team.

[Dbrog]

Lol @ most of the people posted being more white than mexican. If your going to make a fukn thread called "MEXICAN PRIDE" with pics of celebrities at least try and make the people actually representative of what a "mexican" looks like.

This would be like me making a White Appreciation thread and posting a pic of Obama because he's half white saying how I am proud to have a white president.

You should probably take a trip to Mexico City. This image you seem to have of very brown skin being Mexican is incorrect. An extremely large number have "white" skin.

[LexiKhan]

Ok, but I read somewhere that they actually collapsed because of ecological failure like droughts and the like. I mean that's hardly on them, and I guess paranoia like that (sacrificing people for rainwater) is understandable when plagued by famine, taking in account that this was in 900 Ad or something.

What I don't get is what made the "mexican question" so urgent all of a sudden. What I hear from the news is that America's economy is pretty great, especially taking in account how everyone is still recovering from the 2008 crisis. So why are they being percieved as a threat in the US, so much so that people actually consider Trump a valid presidential candidate? Doesn't he "run" for president every election? I thought this was a recurring joke for him every 4 years, but now people are taking him seriously?

Already been proven false 100 times over. No matter how much you say it, it won't make it true.


According to CIS, 71 percent of illegal-alien headed households with children received some sort of welfare in 2009, compared with 39 percent of native-headed houses with children. Illegal immigrants generally access welfare programs through their U.S.-born children, to whom government assistance is guaranteed. Additionally, U.S.-born children of illegal aliens are entitled to American public schools, health care, and more, even though illegal-alien households rarely pay taxes.

I know dude. Cost of living is super cheap if you're used to the US cost of living. My family's living expenses per month, that's including house and car payments, bills and food along with my son's private school tuition comes out to be about $900 US. And we're talking about a 2015 Nissan Maxima, a 3 bedroom 2 bathroom brand new house in a decent part of town. But these nikkas here think I'm living in a war torn jungle by the way they think Mexico is or some shit :oldlol:

The city where I live is considered among the best cities to live, not only among Mexico or Latin American cities, but even including US and Canadian cities. I wish I could find that article where it placed in the top 10 of all cities in the Americas, I believ it was like in #6 IIRC.

The family business me and my wife have is a market that has huge growth potential, I mean like it could make us go from middle class to upper class in a few years. I'm not bragging, I hardly ever mention this but we started with very little just about a year ago and hopefully sometime next year we'll crack a 6 figure income. And like you mentioned, a 6 figure income in Mexico gets you a mansion and a maid if you wish. :oldlol:

Actually, I'm pretty sure that I've argued endlessly with you that "Mexicans" as a racial group don't exist at all. I don't care if it's white Mexicans, brown Mexicans or whatever. The only difference that matters is legal or illegal.

This dude gets it...we come in ALL colors, I even know a few gingers (like Canelo Alvarez who is 100% Mexican). I even posted pics of Mexico's National soccer team to show a tiny sample of Mexican dudes, and you can clearly see our diversity.

Another thing is that we get mistaken for Central Americans/South Americans, basically anyone with a Spanish surname is a Mexican...

Don't try to pretend that Mexico as a country isn't racist as shit though.
You're right, I won't lie. The word indio is used as a slur against the more native looking Mexicans. I remember when I moved back to Mexico when I was 19 after having lived in Chicago from the age of 3 to 19, I was surprised at the level of racism, like when a couple of my friends were denied entrance to a popular nightclub because I guess they looked too native. Growing up in Chicago, we made no distinction among ourselves, we were all Mexican Americans, so I was taken aback by racism by Mexicans towards other Mexicans. There is also a very marked classism but that exists everywhere.

It still happens...this video was shot in one of Mexico City's hottest nightclubs and it looks like it could've be shot in Europe :facepalm
