Anytime I see a fellow Latino demand reparations from Spain I just get war flashbacks to AMLOver rhetoric. /nbh
#not saying they shouldn't acknowledge the damage they've done to the region#but (most of) LATAM just isn't like other colonized regions of the world#we wrestled out the Spaniards centuries ago. not decades unlike other places. centuries.#this is gonna get me blocked flambéed and unfollowed but I genuinely feel it's too fucking late to ask Spain to give us reparations#here in Mexico every single fucking time i've heard the idea of demanding reparations from Spain it's to divert attention. bread and circus#(speaking solely for Mexico here but tbh it isn't too dissimilar in other LATAM countries)#what is getting money from Spain going to do to fix our terrible indigenous and queer rights issues#what is getting money from Spain going to do to prevent our own continuation of environmental loss#what is getting money from Spain going to do to get narcos to stop fucking killing women#to stop fucking killing everyone in general#nobody in power letting this shit happen is related to Spain. like I said. centuries.#Specifying No Body Here because this isn't directed to any of my mutuals /gen just saw it on a reblogged post lol
