    Who gives af 99% of people there are ethnic mexicans practicing mexican culture

    Not at all comparable to an NYC or a SF or an LA

    stop talking about topics you know nothing about dumb mf

    "The Mexico City that we know today is home to large numbers of immigrants and expatriates from Canada, the United States, South America (especially Colombia and Argentina), Central America (particularly Guatemala and El Salvador), the Caribbeans (mainly Cuba and Haiti), Europe (particularly Spain and Germany) and the Middle East (especially Egypt, Syria and Lebanon.) Most recently, there has been an influx of immigrants from Asia-Pacific countries like South Korea and China."

    Why would black people speak more languages than white people

    Immigrants and their children speak multiple languages, non immigrants and third generation+ don’t usually

    I grew up around Muslims and Latinos. Picked up some Arabic and Spanish in my youth. Can't speak it but can understand it enough to have a conversation with somebody. Learned some French and French-Creole from Haitians too.

    So like “more big words -> more official” kinda idea? I absolutely agree

    yes, and lots of statistics; the air of authority, the cultural imperialism characteristic of anthropology and psychology, and other 'sciences'

    This is also why I feel Spanish is pushed as “useful” far too much

    It’s really not unless you live in a heavily Hispanic area (and after a couple generations it starts getting lost) or you have an interest in a Spanish-speaking country

    We speak English already, there’s not another language that’s gonna be more useful in our lifetimes, high schools should have classes in Uzbek or Lithuanian fr, personal interest

    you mentioned useful then mentioned lithuanian or uzbek? why the f*** would that be in school

    good boy

    you mentioned useful then mentioned lithuanian or uzbek? why the f*** would that be in school

    He is saying that English is usually so omnipresent that people should instead learn according to interests

    American anti-intellectualism is probably the worst phenomenon of the past 30 years

    We Won the Cold War and threw up our hands and asked where the coke was

    Ok then u should know america is the most geographically and culturally diverse western country on earth lol

    that's america's problem

    it has no actual culture and it's colony-like

    you talk s*** bout mexico but at least it wasnt built on cultural appropriation

    fun fact: countries dont have to be ''diverse'' (in the american way of diverse which means using foreign things as yours while dismissing the actual source) but instead they have to stay true to their roots

    still, I personally have no hate for the players since the game is rigged

    Are u guys gonna keep replying emotes and actually answer the question?
    Mexico is like the france or Germany of latin america

    It’s a deep and rich culture but still fairly homogeneous, ethnically and otherwise. Most people in mexico are just white/native mix to varying degrees, a few black mexicans and middle easterns but not like in brazil or cuba, and all generally following mexican culture (I know regional variations exist like in every other country on earth but that doesn’t make it “diverse” in a discussion about the most diverse countries on earth

    Lemme not say "Native" as there are Blacks in Mexico who were brought to Mexico as slaves, but there is a pretty sizeable community/population of Afro-Mexicans who been there since like...the 18th and 19th century

    I'm really tryna get better at at least being able to read others. Did Spanish in HS and I do duolingo like 5 days a week just to expand on that. Love french but its tough to get that foundation without immersion

    This Latvian chick I went to HS with that knows 5 languages, she inspires me
