Some things are impossible to explain
Nearly? Where do they disagree?
I think there’s one situation where the border was defined by the river but then the river moved, and some Americans ended up on the Mexican side of the river. I’m not sure if this is an active border dispute or not.
I think there are some semi active disputes going about the possibility that some American water management activities in the watershed may cause the river to shift more. For reference, the headwaters of the Rio Grande are deeper into US territory, not on the border
Florida. Mexico aint touching florida
Where the Mexican border ends? The us southern border still exists when not in contact with mexico.
Oddly enough, this is not true between Belize and Guatemala.
Because border conflicts between nation-states are pretty pretty pretty common.
This more looks like how I remember it from my timeline, with a big river between the US and Mexico.
Cool racism your trying to promote
I hope this is Poe’s Law at play. I literally don’t know what that even means if it’s meant seriously
As a Mexican I also have no idea what that guy is talking about. My best guess is that he thinks it’s racist because it just mentions Mexico at all?
I’m interested in understanding why you feel like this is racist.
Continental drift in its current form was theorised by Alfred Wegener. Wegener was a citizen of the German empire. Empires were invented by Rome. Rome shares two letters with Race. Race is a social construct that allows for racism. Therefore all Mexicans who have allowed their border to continentally drift away from Merica are racist.
That’s my best guess, anyway
Ah, I didn’t know we were using the “why fire trucks are red” argument. I see now why it’s racist
They’s borderline
I want to learn more about you
My trying to promote?
Oooh you meant you’re.
