I'm just saying there's no reason to even have a border with a country so hosed up that a crime organization is stronger than the government

one of the entire purposes of the war on drugs is to create lucrative black markets that destabilize foreign governments

you think your government is stronger? typical american arrogance

they don't need to do this in the U.S. because you're the customer

you think they haven't figured out how to flip border patrol agents? hahahahaha

this industry is worth billions

you build a wall, they go under, over it or around it (via the sea)... or through the front door

because all it takes is flipping one agent. not much different from how all it takes is one prison guard to flood una prisión con drogas

you literally wouldn't have any loving "cartels" in the first place without the war on drugs.

instead we'd have more corporations legally loving people over and ruining lives. HOly gently caress capitalism andthe usa are soo cool

i don't respect all this negative talk towards mexican fashion though. mexico is the only country in the world where german vampire-themed disco-goth bands can perform on television

i don't have a problem with bad taste. i like bad taste, especially refined bad taste. that frees people up while so many fuddy-duddies want to tighten people up. no taste is what i'm against.

lol i said "el komander!" and he went "el komander?" like he was kinda pissed and offended like joe pesci in goodfellas. then it took a second for him to kinda get out of "i'm going to smash this guy" mode and kinda shrugged it off and smirked and gave a tug on his shirt. what can you say, i'm kind of a bad boy, but you knew that already

criminal organisations are often some of the most brutal capitalist enterprises around. even militant left organisations that decide to enter criminal smuggling/dealing operations often degenerate into non-political gangs

how do you think this happened? just by being local entities that can spread money around their heartlands in a way the central state might not?
