Real Mexicans. What about them?

Question

Hi. For what I have read it seems like Americans hate ALL Mexicans. Well, what about those who are born and raised in Mexico, have an education and do not live in USA. I know that they do not like Mexican-Americans and they hate Mexicans who move illegally to USA as much as Americans do.

Answer 1

Most Mexicans in Mexico love living there and don't have any desire to move to the U.S. Of course, there's many problems that need to be solved, but so many racists make it sound like every single Mexican has already moved illegally to the U.S.

Answer 2

Nobody answered about real Mexicans living in Mexico.

I know this is going to sound rude but this is the way it is in real Mexico...

I think that us, Mexicans in Mexico are ashamed of those uneducated immigrants that go to the US and embarrass us. They are the lower classes that can't find an opportunity in this country because they have not education not even to get a nice job in Mexico.

When this people come back to Mexico, for vacation for example, they feel quite "American" and try to look down to other people in here, but when it happens Mexican people laugh when they talk in English. We say... "come on "indio" since when you are so fluent in English!" And people don't consider them even Mexicans. They say about immigrant people: You need a lot more to become an American and even much more to still being a Mexican.

I know it's rude, but it's real.

P.S. I just remembered what a friend from NYC told me when he came to Mexico City, he said: "Why Mexicans in Mexico City don't look like Mexicans..."

Answer 3

Just what have you been reading? Mexican propaganda? Americans hate illegals (not just Mexican illegals) they are a drain on our economy. The illegal Mexicans that come here should stay home and built up Mexico, starting with getting rid of the political corruption. Mexico has many of the same resources as the US has, and there is no reason why it couldn't also be a great and free nation.

Answer 4

Please don't group everyone into one big ball. The Mexicans in Mexico have a wonderful culture and I'm sure like anywhere else they have their share of the village idiot and the respectable human being. Mexicans who have become Americans are wonderful people to be around, smart, witty and fun. many illegals I'm sure who are here to feed their families are probably the ones who hid out during the marches and didn't want the attention the other morons were insisting upon.
The few who are demanding rights they are not entitled to are the ones who have started the whole snowball effect and made this a big racial mess. Is it that hard to see that?

Answer 5

Honey you are so wrong,I have great friends and neighbors that are Mexican American.They are lovely people and we are good friends.And the real Mexican
people I met in the interior of Mexico I enjoyed very much,they were kind,hospitable and we had a lot of fun.And I don't in anyway hate the illegal that comes over to this country,I do hate what he does and how he does it.The law is the law and should be followed.
All people that oppose the illegal alien are not racists ,sadly some are, but you will find racists on both sides and in both country's

Answer 6

I feel you are taking things out of context.

It isn't that Americans hate all Mexicans. It isn't even that Americans hate some Mexicans. It isn't even that Americans hate a Mexican. It's about Americans hating Mexicans entering without a passport, visa, etc illegally, getting jobs under an assumed or stolen identity, and claiming citizenship after breaking multiple laws with regard to immigration at a minimum.

I can appreciate someone wanting to make a better life for themselves and/or their family. I can appreciate someone working hard and accomplishing their goals. I dont appreciate someone breaking the law to do any of those things, though. That's like saying it's ok to sell drugs, regardless of who you sell it to, because you need whatever.

There is a limit to what is acceptable.

Part of the problem with the issue is the perception that has been created by American politicians through the media. Many politicians of one party would like the perception to be that the other party is racist, implying that they either aren't or are accepting of them. That simply isn't true- but don't get me wrong. There may be some of each party that are racist and, depending on their actions, may influence or enhance that perception, but the majority of Americans do not feel that way.

Do not let the irresponsibility of your/our media and/or the rhetoric of a few misinformed people cause you to be distressed.

Guilt by association is a bland form of racism...depending how you look at it.

Answer 7

It is not true that all Americans hate all Mexicans, or even all Mexicans who come to the US. Many of us have accepted the idea that they are a part of our economy, and a part of our culture. They come here to improve their lives, and generally make good citizens when we give them a chance. And never forget that their children who are born here are citizens, and grow up to vote.

I think it is possible that the Mexicans who stay in Mexico resent those who leave, but I can't testify as to that. They may well feel it takes some of the population pressures of of their country. Then too, a lot of people who come to the US send money back to their relatives in Mexico, and that cannot be a bad thing.

Answer 8

I like Mexico and Mexicans. I disagree with the way some have chosen to enter our country. I have been to Mexico and it is not the pile of crap people say it is. I do think Mexico has alot of problems and it needs to help it's people more to have a better life. I think the U.S can help more by helping to develop Mexico economically into a strong nation, instead of helping to siphon off the parts of the population Mexico doesn't care about.

Answer 9

I am about the whitest person on earth and I totally support immigration. Without Mexicans, we wouldn't have anyone to do the really crappy jobs that no one else wants- driving up the price of goods and services to unreasonable highs. Yes, they use government services but the total dollar amount that they contribute to the US economy is much greater than the amount they take away.

I came from New Mexico and the one thing that does bother me, however, is the Mexican-American twenty-somethings who drive around in their low-rider trucks with big Brown Pride stickers on the back and the Mexican flag in tow. If they are so damn proud of the country that their parents tried so hard to get away from, then maybe they should move back there and see how great it really is.

If I put a sticker on my car that said White Pride and drove around with a German flag in the back of my truck, I would be called a Nazi. What is the difference?

Answer 10

Pretty sure a lot of them don't hate Mexicans, they just hate when they move here illegally. Derderder. What about the Mexicans in Mexico? I don't care. Just keep making my tequila.
