Ahorita todo es risas y memes, pero cuando alguno de esos ridículos llegue al poder todo se convertirá en lágrimas, corajes y memes

So little people go to vote in my country that the government tries to spice things out by offering stuff for voters

This year several places like restaurants, cafes and fast food stablishments will offer free food if you bring proof that you voted, but other years it was offering special discounts on products like clothes, shoes and accessories.

I can't help but think about it when I watch people from the USA struggle because their government doesn't want them to be able to vote.

Anyways I will vote tomorrow and then spend the day gorging myself on free food, life is good sometimes

Edit: if you're from Mexico here's the complete list of places offering food, by state

Que si ganas menos de 15,000 pesos al mes, no pagarás impuestos: Una de las promesas de Xóchitl Gálvez en el Segundo Debate Presidencial ¿Qué piensas?

[orion-archives]

Dear Americans and people outside Mexico: Please stop.

I have seen many posts of people outside Mexico saying: Congrats, Mexico! Claudia, a leftist feminist ambientalist jewish woman, is president! Take notes US!

Meanwhile, you go out in the streets in Mexico today and no one is celebrating. No one. The streets are empty, everything feels sad and hopeless.

A lot of people didn't want her. Because we know what is going to happen.

Morena (her political group) is literally in every position of power. From senators, to city governors. They have EVERY SINGLE thing in the goverment.

You know how bad things are gonna get for us here? Do you know what she has allowed? What THEY have done to our country? All the shit we have been through because of them?

No, because you don't care. You haven't cared enough to research who this woman is really and just praise her without knowing a shit.

Because you have to make everything about you, don't you?.

"I can't believe Mexico has a woman president before US!"

"OMG, US take notes!"

"The US-"

Can you stop for a second and think outside of your bubble? Do you truly know who this woman is and what she has done to Mexico? Or you are just using this to talk about you and your own country and problems?

Please. Please do your research.

She is not your precious feminist ally.

She has denied multiple times the ongoing wave of violence against women in Mexico (11 women go missing A DAY). She has sent riot police to gas feminist protests.

Did you hear what I said?

11 WOMEN GO MISSING A DAY.

EVERY DAY 11 WOMEN NEVER COME BACK, ARE KILLED, ARE RAPED, ARE TORTURED, ARE GETTING FORGOTTEN WITHOUT LEAVING A TRACE. EVERYDAY.

And she denies this. She has denied MULTIPLE TIMES that the violence against women is at an all time high.

A feminist would denied that 11 mothers/sisters/daughters/aunts/girls/women/people are going missing PER DAY?

No. Because she doesn't fucking care.

She is no ambientalist.

She was more than happy to support the Tren Maya, a project AMLO, the former president, was hooked on making since the begining.

The issue?

DEFORESTATION. MASSIVE DEFORESTATION.

10 MILLION TREES HAVE BEEN CUT DOWN.

Entire natural spaces gone for a train that isn't even working and already is having problems.

Also, how can I forget this?

27 people died, 80 injured.

The line 12 (Linea 12) of the CDMX Metro collapsed. The structure and the entire transport had (and still are) been neglected by the city administration.

Guess who was in charge of CDMX at the time of the tragedy?

Exactly, Claudia Sheinbaum. What was she doing instead of sending resources and money to fix and mantain the Metro?

But political propaganda for herself, of course!

And even after that tragedy, there have been multiple issues and accidents in the metro. A fucking coworker of a family member was trapped in a wagon alongside multiple people for HOURS due to a malfuction of the metro. They weren't allowed to get out even if they were cooking alive due to the heat of being inside a closed wagon and police ordered them TO NOT FILM what was happening to them.

She is not a saint. She is not an icon. She is not someone you should praise.

FUCKING INFORM YOURSELF BEFORE TALKING.

Mexico is not USA. Get it? We don't have the same politics and issues you have, get that?

The entire world doesn't revolve around you. We aren't your argument to use, we aren't your little meme to fuck around with.

We are people that are tired. People that didn't want this. People that are upset, dissapointed, mad, hopeless.

My blog isn't a political place, so as a final note, I want to say this:

I want to be wrong. I really, really want to be fucking wrong.

I want my country, Mexico, to be ok. To be a better place to live.

I HOPE to be wrong and that things get better. For me, for my family, for my friends, for the millions of people that stay, study, work, breathe, live and love this country.

Claudia Sheinbaum, I really want to be wrong about you. Not because I love you, but because I love Mexico.

I don't have high hopes for the future, but I really, REALLY, want things to be better.

That's all I have to say for now.

I would not be surprised if many people on this website start celebrating Mexico's newly elected female president. To mark it as a step forward and a feminist victory.

However you all must know that this is not a a victory for Mexico. On these elections were were faced with candidates that were all of doubtful quality. But none more than Claudia Sheinbaum. At best she will be no more than a puppet of the current president who has sought to undermine the democratic institutions of Mexico multiple times. At worst she is the head of a wave of politicians that are deeply in bed with Organized Crime even more blatantly than it was on previous elections.

In truth I don't know what her victory will bring to Mexico, but I know who was the worst possible candidate to win. Not because she's a woman, but because who sh is as a person. And I think the harm she'll do will only harm the perception of the public for female leadership of countries.

Has it been done yet?

Hola gente bonita!

Generalmente no suelo hacer esta clase de posts, y sé que probablemente esto va a quedar muertisimo. Pero aún así:

Recuerden que éste domingo 2 de Junio son las elecciones, no olviden salir a votar.

Y piensen bien a quien le dan su voto, lo menos que queremos es que al país se lo cargue aún más la chingada.

[yoprotesto]

Es decir, lo importante ya fue publicado y está a los ojos de todos, incluso para un ejercicio de verificación de cualquier actor mínimamente interesado. Si a los gobiernos de Brasil, Colombia y México les preocupan tanto las actas, podrían pedir a cualquier universidad o empresa especializada una auditoría de la información proporcionada por la oposición y ello permitiría desentrañar dudas y estar más cerca de la verdad: en Venezuela el chavismo está intentando perpetrar un gigantesco fraude electoral aprovechando la pasividad internacional.

2 de junio del 2024

Hoy voté por primera vez. Tomé el primer paso hacia mis responsabilidades como ciudadana y me siento … vacía. Durante años he expresado mi inconformidad hacia la situación de mi país, un país lleno de violencia, muerte y discriminación y lo único que los adultos me podían decir era “espérate a votar”, “Solo espera cumplir 18, ahí podrás hacer valer tu voz”, espera, espera, espera y eso hice. Esperé años, viendo a mujeres desaparecer frente a los ojos del país, a ambientalistas y activistas aparecer muertos justo cuando el cambio estaba a punto de llegar. Esperé y traté de prepararme para el día. Pues hoy llegó el día, por fin pude votar y no va a pasar nada.

No sé quién ganó y no me importa, porque yo sé que no va a pasar nada. Porque esa promesa que me hicieron los adultos durante años era una bola de mentiras. Porque al entrar a la casilla y ver a los candidatos por última vez, supe que todos eran el mismo libro con diferente portada. Veo el pasado y veo el presente y no encuentro las diferencias. Sé que no vamos a cambiar. Esa impotencia que sentí durante años sigue aquí y no quiere irse. Escucho las mismas promesas vacías y le pido a cualquier ser divino que me diga qué hacer, porque a mí se me acabaron las opciones. Escucho las mismas palabras de siempre. Solo queda votar por el “menos peor” dicen y yo solo quiero gritar. ¿Por qué? Eso no debería ser así. No deberíamos aspirar solo a un presidente mediocre. Deberíamos aspirar a lo mejor. Nuestra barra debería estar en la luna, no hasta el infierno donde el diablo se pueda tropezar con ella.

Lo que quiero decir entre tanto verbo es que estoy cansada. Quería sentirme orgullosa de mi país, quería poder gritar a los cuatro vientos “¡Soy mexicana!” Sin embargo, aquí estoy, pensando cuánto tiempo más tendré que esperar. Pensando si moriré, como tantas otras antes que yo, esperando justicia y un país mejor.

Now we have the first female president of Mexico 🇲🇽🙌🏼

[jrlrc]

AMLO y su gobierno han estado contra la ciencia y la tecnología, no sólo contra toda educación y la cultura crítica.

[orion-archives]

I don't want to see anyone here celebrating Claudia Sheinbaum's victory in the elections.

NO, not because I'm against women in power. I'm a woman and I know it's an important event to have the first female president in history.

BUT she was the worst option out of all the candidates. She is a puppet of the former president, AMLO, who's presidency was extremely corrupt, one of the most violent ones and practically glued to organized crime.

It was during their time when kids were denied cancer treatment, because there WAS NOT MEDICINE. When tons of people lost their jobs, when inflation became worse and worse. When multiple tragedies and accidents happened in the CDMX metro because of their neglect. When the INE (our electoral institute) was attacked alongside news reporters who documented and called out their errors. When budget for science, art and education were at their lowest, to the point the goverment wanted free art for the covers of the free educational books that the SEP (Mexico's public education secretariat) gave and in the end were full of mistakes and errors inside, making them useless for education.

I can go on and on and on with why they are terrible, but it would take me days.

Claudia Sheinbaum is not a feminist ally, before you start preaching her as an icon. She, AMLO and Morena were responsable for violence against women to skyrocket in six years.

I repeat:

During AMLO's presidency, violence (including homicide) against women was at its HIGHEST.

Women are DYING at horrible numbers EVERYDAY and they will continue to ignore that.

Who is AMLO? The same guy who gladly shook the hand of Chapo's mother infront of cameras. The same person that freed a narco leader. The same who was responsible for massacres due to organized crime. The same who constantly denied the evidence that Mexico was getting worse. The same one who preached "Hugs, no bullets" as he let crime and violence to roam free.

Sheinbaum is not someone you should cherish. Please, you don't know how much damage she, AMLO and all the group of Morena have done to my country.

Do not celebrate.

This wasn't a victory for Mexico, it was a victory for Morena.

Today, Mexico lost.
