This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Tell me you haven't been to Mexico without telling me you haven't been to Mexico.
Clearly you've never set foot in Mexico and if you have, you've only been to a heavily guarded resort in a place like Cancun with other white Americans. If you're going to sit here and argue that Mexico is wealthy, safe, or that it's government is doing good then you're literally too ignorant for this conversation.
I live in here in Mexico and they did not lie at all
Political stuff aside.. I'd love to visit Mexico, it looks like an absolutely beautiful place!
This guy is a zionist. Don't waste your time with him
Just an FYI for anybody reading this thread, this guy is a well known troll on here. If you go through his comment history, he calls EVERYTHING zionist regardless of validity or context.
Sure i am a troll who call everybody a zionist. Like one of the guys not you who said gazans voted for hamas so palestinians deserve what happened to them
Good thing I've never said that, and I know you won't be able to find a single comment to prove your claim either. I see you under every other post with your bad english claiming that everyone and everything is a zionist who loves genocide regardless of context, validity, or relevance. There's never any evidence, but that won't stop you making stuff up. Like I said, you're a troll.
A bunch of bs. Your comment by my English show that you have no real arguments. English is my 3rd language, you can't expect my English to be perfect. I only call people who every time Israel break international laws keep talking about iran, khamas , khizbollah and never ever talk about how israel war crimes.
You justified people getting arrested for protesting against calling Palestine actions. You justified Israel attack on Iran. Striking nuclear facilities is a war crime under international law. So stop pretending that you are not a zionist.
Anybody can check our comments histories and see who is lying.
You are not only a Zionist but also a transphobic
There's difference between being perfect and being hard to understand, you're the latter. I also speak another language, I speak Arabic, but you don't seem to have an issue making out what I say.
You're a zionist
They're more than welcome too
Let's see the treasure chest that is your moderation history:
It looks like I'm not the only one who noticed you're a troll. You're the only troll on this site who can manage to turn a post about Mexican chocolate bars into a pissing match about Israel where you case every atom in the universe of being zionist.
Which evidence do you have , it seems that it is you who is trolling
Apparently my english is good enough to understand every single word and sentence i write.
Europeen complicity is a fact, anybody unbiased know that my comments was for exposing europeen hypocrisy .
Let's say the mod was right about the trolling. Your comments that was removed was a lot more serious. Like the one removed for transphobia.
You turned a topic about chocolate into talking about mexico being not safe.
So you are a zionist, a transfobe and a racist
I literally don't give a shit. I called you out for being a troll because you're under every post and every community calling everyone and anyone a zionist with zero evidence, validity, relevance, or context. Clearly a bunch of other people and mods on this site agree with this notion considering how many times you've been banned for trolling, derailing, or being off topic over the same thing. Hell, even you agree that you're a troll by conceding the mods are right. That's all there is to it. You proved my point.
Seems a little off topic and unsourced?
If someone justify a genocide how can you him in anything?
By whether they're making verifiable and objective claims? They aren't, really, and they certainly didn't source theirs, but it's a lot more convincing to say that instead of making your own unsourced accusations.
I think the issue is that you've not provided evidence that the other user supports Israel's genocide in Gaza.
At the end of the day it's just an internet argument and not worth it, but if you want to make your point, I'd start by getting that evidence.
I do agree in principle that I would think twice before agreeing with any position a genocide supporter takes, though that doesn't necessarily mean I will disagree on any particular point after giving it due thought. If they said throwing puppies from a roof was bad, I'd agree, for example.
Have you been to Mexico? How about you take a little vacation to Sinaloa to prove me wrong?
Sinaloa has some great towns
Sure, but that doesn't mean it's a safe place though
I was there a year ago. It was nice enough, not nearly as worrisome as I thought it would be. Yes, I stayed in the tourist areas, no I didn't wander into the rural areas, no I didn't try to start shit in clubs, yes I saw armed military on patrol. There were a lot of people trying to live their lives despite the serious crime in the region.
There are absolutely terrible things happening there and I would love for them to get better. I can say the same thing about the US. At least Mexico isn't waging war on my country, trade or otherwise.
Where did you go? Culiacan? Mazatlan? If you stuck exclusively to the tourist areas and made sure you were on red alert all the time, and tried to avoid wandering anywhere or having any sort of confrontation, then you would be fine for the most part... but that in itself isn't normal. By having that sort of discipline out of fear goes beyond the scope of normal tourist precautions.
Also, even though the US is dangerous in its own right, and has plenty of issues, it is not at all comparable to Mexico. The US homicide rate is a quarter of Mexico's and it has been declining sharply over the past few years. There's nothing like the cartels in the country, most of the crime is localized. There aren't organized crime syndicates running entire cities.
