There was an interesting comment from a teacher ‘Ur Drighten’ from Texas on a post and thought I’d share with everyone. Video provided by ‘Dirkster’. Thank you both, shera~
I spent over 20 years teaching Mexican-Americans, Mexicans-with-US-Citizenship, and Mexican-Mexicans in El Paso.
When 9/11 happened, all American flags were lowered immediately. The giant Mexican flag in Juarez (160×90 feet, on a 300 foot flagpole) stayed up for 2 additional days. More than that, Mexicans in El Paso went out of their way to put up even more Mexican flags on their car antennas!
Some of my students, the Mexican-Americans, were mostly well behaved and worked diligently on their assignments. The rest of them were only interested in showing me that a gringo could never make them do any work or behave.
They sat around and played a game called “Who’s More Mexican?” In middle class neighborhoods, the game was won by the kid whose parents spoke only Spanish or who, themselves, had been born in Juarez. In poor neighborhoods, the winner was the won who was had the least White in his gene pool.
Every morning when we would rise for the pledge, these same Mexicans would either, 1) remain seated and talk, 2) stand up, turn their backs on the US flag and talk, or 3) give the Mexican “Heart Salute” and talk. When I would discuss their lack of patriotism with them, they would simply reply, “But, Meester, wee’re Mexican!”
White Nationalist absolutely do not need to worry about Mexicans ever trying to pass for White. Mexicans will never let you ignore or forget their ethnic pride.
