Which is just continuously funny to me when it's said in a place that was Mexico. I really wish history was a bigger thing for everyone. It would really make our society advance rapidly.

these people forgot the damned ALAMO!!!!!!

Mass amounts of old Mexicans were allowed to stay after the war in which we took by force their land. And we were totally cool with that and them back then so I dunno what happened here. Often when talking to Hispanics you're talking to people whose families have literally been American longer than your white ass family whose great grand parents just immigrated here in like the late 1800s early 1900s or maybe even Grandpappy came over in WW2 like my fam lol.

I also love pointing out American history to ignorant Americans.

There's more than you'd be able to imagine, but less than what they think they have in self-support systems.

The conservative wing cultivates this ignorance in both their followers and as many others as they can force it on. Segregated schools was a that in action e.g. Defunding public schools in general now is the new tactic.
