Lede buried!!!
The government also signed a decree for the Mexican State to regain full rights over passenger railroads.
Make Tren Maya Great Again
By cutting through indigenous land and putting it in charge of the Mexican army who has been contributing to indigenous dispossession.
Tren Maya was amlo ignoring indigenous peoples to build a vanity project. Fuck tren maya.
Also it’s more expensive to use than buses, and ignores most tows, so only tourists use it.
But other trains would be cool, there used to be a Guadalajara-Mordor city train, that one would get a lot of use.
Guadalajara-Mordor
Wait till the Riders of Rojan hear about this! Gondór will never recover.
Yeah a project financed by deutsche bahn can’t be good
Oh yeah, it’s all coming together.
We already have many articles saying AMLO was an evil communist dictator. I can’t wait until they start calling Claudia an evil dictator too.
When will she reannex California
And Texas
That already started
Yeah I think I saw a small amount of “oh she’s aUtHoriTaRiaN” but it’s not widespread. Libs are still focusing on “first woman president” at the moment.
At this rate, that’s going to change soon and hard, no doubt about it.
Hand picked successor
*points at seagull flying past* nationalised.
Well that’ll cost her 13 freedom points on the Burgerite-Eagleland Institute’s liberty scale.
So, uh, besides learning Spanish, what are the immigration requirements for Mexico?
Getting permanent residency its not that hard just time consuming
Like a half dozen years to be a permanent resident, this isn’t the PRC we’re talking about
Marry a Mexican
I see no downsides, and I already speak Spanish well enough to navigate the world. I read it better than I speak it too, which has got to count for some kind of bonus points.
I almost married a Mexician

They must protect her at all costs.
Wow a person with a German last name in LATAM who’s actually based? Strange times we live in.
She is Jewish. Her parents came from Bulgaria and Lithuania, to escape the nazis. Weird, but former Brazilian president, Dilma Rouseff, was also Bulgaria and her mom or dad were a member of the Bulgarian Communist Party.
Oh sorry the “Baum” just screamed German to me
Jews in german speaking nations were only allowed a few jobs so a lot of them have surnames relating to their location. Hence a lot of jewish surnames ending in -baum, -thal or -stein. The non-jews got surnames relating to their profession like Schmidt, Müller and Meier.
what’s the difference between “de-privatize” and “nationalize”? is this some weasel word bullshit or did something substantial actually happen here?
Death to America
The more that I think about it, the more I like the term “de-privatize”. It explicitly lays out that it’s a return to what should have been the normal state of affairs.
Also remember that “privatization” was coined to describe what the Euro fascists did in their economy. So “deprivatize” is essentially “antifa”
I think it is because they were nationalized in the past, so it is undoing the later privatization.
They were never private. They are run by their respective trade unions, wich in practice work more like medieval guilds, were positions in the company can be inherited, sold, etc.
Sometimes the companies subcontract stuff, and those are awarded to the families of other guild members.
There are also a lot of benefits for high ranking members like I limited free electricity for life. On the other hand if I exceed my allowed use I get fined into space.
There were some reforms made by the libs to make the companies more competitive, by bringing some accountability, but they were mostly half assed. And never did anything. Except annoy the most reactionary sectors in Mexican society, who all support amlo.
This reform doesn’t do anything except give them a guarantee that things will stay as they are. Rigthnow Mexico has oil for 15 years or so. And the government invests more money in pemex than it gets out, so it basically is subsidizing the high living standards of high ranking guildsmen.
Death to america, of course
This reform doesn’t do anything except give them a guarantee that things will stay as they are.
so this is indeed a bullshit headline.
Death to America
Not necessarily. It seems like a very strong guarantee. Any change as to how they are run, or movement towards privatisation would be almost imposible now, wich is both good and bad.
Death to america of course.
ah ok so it’s not so much a swing to the left as it is a prevention of a future swing to the right, if i’m understanding correctly. i guess that’s something to celebrate? i really just can’t figure out why mexico – its leaders but especially its people – aren’t more left-wing, given how much they suffer due to yankkkee imperialism, so i’m kind of at a loss as to why they aren’t more based
Death to America
Yhea exactly, it however also benefits some very reactionary local interests, so it balances out.
I think the yanks just have too much influence.
Besides that, Mexico has a propensity for fascism, it’s one of those countries were the modern state developed alongside a warlord class instead of a capitalist class, so the state was modernity and the middle classes were beourocrats. So there wasn’t the progressive force of new production arrangements, and similar to turkey this resulted in the warlords just assimilating into the resources of the modern state.
As of now I think our biggest problem is organized crime, wich is backed by
And ignored by the Mexican government. Mostly due to collusion.
Death to america of course
no more half measures walter
no more half measures walter
she gonna get the allende treatment
The US is go-fund-me-ing their assassination attempts nowadays, I think she’s safe.
You love to see it
I may not be Mexican or live in Mexico but she’s my president
Same. all my presidents are named Claudia!
when i heard of this i was like fuck that another shitty wannabe socdem.
but this looks actually big, and right on the empire’s porch. is there a catch? there has to be a catch.
the us will try another pinochet wont it? are they prepared to defend themselves?
de-privatizes
are we avoiding the word “nationalize” so the CIA doesn’t shoot her?
EDIT: answer to my question is explained well here elsewhere in thread
