Wait, if Aztecs thought white people are gods (unless it's a "Television would never lie" moment), do we have records of how they treated albinos born in their countries?

The veneration was severely overblown. They heeded them as gods in the same way that I heeded my abusive father as a god. And albinos probably just kinda died to the Central American UV. They might have been perceived as cursed.
