    Your writing and tone is rather dismissive. Maybe you should put your pride to the side and read about what I am saying that there is much more happening here than just the CIA

    Notice that I wrote about a Mayor and a 43? Those are morphing into a catch all of all kinds of violence and government and socity inability to reform. Not all of that has anything to do with the CIA.

      Still the same strawman. No one said tgat every problem is caused by the CIA or that Mexico has no problems of its own, so why are you still arguing against a position that no one holds?

        You framing the issues in terms of the CIA is dismissive of broader issues that these protest are taking on. By circling back to the CIA you are implicitly saying we don’t need to take this seriously its just the CIA. I am willing to believe that was not your intent, but you should take some self reflection of how your writing is being interpreted if that is the case.

          The article wasn’t about whatever grassroots grievances Mexicans may have; it was about astroturfing.

          If you want to have a discussion about broader issues in Mexico then post about them.

            Well, I guess I was wrong.
