Summary
Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum dismissed reports of a potential U.S. “soft invasion” to combat cartels as “entirely a movie,” emphasizing Mexico’s sovereignty as a free, independent nation.
The Rolling Stone report claims Donald Trump’s incoming administration is considering covert military operations in Mexico, including airstrikes and assassinations of cartel leaders.
While Trump and key officials like Pete Hegseth and Marco Rubio support such measures, experts warn they could backfire by boosting cartel recruitment, undermining Mexican sovereignty, and fostering cartel-Mexican authority collaboration.
This response right here is the statement that makes the border just get more and more violent. The US is just going to start pulling a Poland and kill anyone who attempts crossing-no questions asked-unless mexico taskes some actual action against the Sinaloa and gulf cartels.
So far all they do is get in bed with them and let the problem spiral to the point where they don’t have to acknowledge law enforcement.
So call names and be racist all you want, this shit will happen regardless of what Mexico ‘wants’. They’re not powerful enough to get a say, that’s just the way it is.
So basically, the melian dialogue, might makes right, that’s where we’re at, right? Go ahead, treat the rest of the hemisphere as your private fiefdom, and then be surprised about antiamericanism. Look at the way you’re talking. It’s like the 19th fucking century all over again. “Racist”? What the fuck man. You got offended by “gringo”?! Really?! You’re talking like a United Fruit Company exec and you’re calling me a racist? You put “wants” in quotation marks and you call me a racist? As if what, Mexico is not a real country, right? They don’t get a say, right? Angloamericans know best. The rest are just pretend countries. I’m Canadian and even I vomit a bit with the imperialist attitudes being expressed in this thread, and your feefees got hurt by the word gringo? Tabarnak des maudits esti d’americains, calisse de caves.
Skepticism-deprived people — eager to believe and spread obvious untruths like what you’ve posted — are the biggest danger America faces.
