    Perhaps also culturally within its identity- and the fact half of the US is essentially just stolen Mexico, and their proximity to and close interactions with the YanKKKee devil. These combined with the direct proximity (border) and sheer size means what problems the US stirs up in Mexico will find their way back home (IMO).

      I would be wary of the idea of America stealing Mexico, both states are on stolen land. Kinda like saying Michigan is stolen Canada.

      • While you are not wrong that mexico is stolen land, it does pant an artificialy narrow picture of the United States to refuse to entertain the idea that the US then stole about 1/3rd to 1/2 of its area from Mexico. By not entertaining this idea we are hiding a large part of the US’s Imperalism,
