You may say that as often and as loudly as you like. But I go by what I see MEChA doing and saying in the real world, not what they (or others) claim they are actually about.

The only place I look to for information about what MEChA is and does is MEChA itself.

And yes, they posted 6 minutes apart.

BOOM!

You’re banned.
Guess what? It makes you look Extra Retarded™ when you have to make fake posts to be your own fan club.

From that original use, the term gabacho really is universally misused by Mexicans and Mexican-Americans when applied to United States citizens of light skin within the United States, unless it was applied to other Mexicans and Mexican Americans of light skin who have acted more like Americans than Mexicans.

Similarly, the term “gringo”, as someone before has pointed out, originally was applied by the Spanish to foreignors in Spain whose native languages “sounded like Greek” or Griego to the Spanish. From this origin it is extremely rude and inappropriate to call an American of any colored skin a gringo within the person’s homeland of the United States.

Such linguistic logic did not come into play in the the development of the Mexican version of Spanish. This is to be expected when a nation of people takes a simple word such as “pinchi”, meaning originally in Spanish a scullion, or a kitchen helper, and evolved that word into a Mexican version ranging from the heaviest applications of our “F” word to something mildly describing worthless.

Another Spanish word greatly evolved by the Mexicans is “chingar” meaning originally in Spanish “to tipple”, or take a drink of some alcoholic beverage, which came to mean to the Mexicans an all purpose, and ubiquitous, word ranging from all of the darkest meanings of our “F” word to a simple condition of feeling mildly out of sorts.

As it happened in the 1960’s that American Blacks, whose ancesters all came from West Africa, mistakenly adapted many of the cultural aspects of East Africans, the Viva La Raza drum beaters in the United States have incorrectly interpreted the Aztlan origin myth, by locating the original homeland of the Aztecs in the Southwest of the United States. BAD WRONG!

Aztec mythology described the origin point of the Aztec tribe to be “in the Land of the Blue Herons”. Now it’s true a few blue herons move along the river systems of the American Southwest . . . but damn few!

The true Land of the Blue Herons was always known to be in the very wet and tropical area that is the modern Mexican State of Nayarit, which is indeed quite a ways from the American Southwest. There are now, and have always been, a humongous amount of blue herons living in Nayarit, which always has had the right climate and geography for these birds to thrive in great numbers.

When a drum beater cause is fabricated from scratch, the fabricators should get the facts for their dogma straight instead of creating fiction to support their racist dream.
