Sorry to undo the effort of paying a domestic abuser $10 to own this poster, but I am going to lose my dang mind if I keep seeing multiple posters who appear to be Baloogan.

Being white in a Latin American country means you're more closely related to the original European settlers than anybody else, and in some countries that confers more privilege than others. The colonial period in Spanish countries enforced a very strict tiered caste system that was defined by your racial background, with blacks and natives on the bottom, mixed races in the middle, and whites on top.

In many cases it was impossible to hold a high office like being governor, unless you were a first generation Spaniard who was born in the homeland.

Her name is 100% Mexican, but also I've been following her and know she's Mexican-American. She's from the South Texas border, like me.

Yeah, light-skinned Mexicans definitely have it better and are seen as superior. Its not always the case, but there's definitely still a lot of racism in Mexico.

They're one of the best ways to effectively re-introduce segregation, defunding public schools into the ground in the process, so yes.

It's buried a few source links in but if their analysis and the evidence they are using is even close to correct, it's physically impossible for the hack to have been done by Russian hackers.

http://disobedientmedia.com/2017/07/new-research-shows-guccifer-2-0-files-were-copied-locally-not-hacked/
https://theforensicator.wordpress.com/guccifer-2-ngp-van-metadata-analysis/

The evidence indicates that the files were transferred using Linux cp commands to copy the files at speeds averaging 25 MB/s. The transfer speed alone would require either direct access to the server or somewhere else on the internal network. Considering that Linux was used, the most likely scenario is that someone with direct access to the server connected a USB drive with a Linux instance, rebooted that server, forced it to boot Linux, transferred the files, and rebooted to Windows. All done locally. Unless the Russians have secret technology from a reversed engineered space ship, it didn't loving happen.
