R/mexico is so fucking insufferable
The subreddits for geographical locations are consistently some of the most reactionary cesspools on the site
City subreddits on a video of homeless people:
what's the thing about upper-class education and international english speakers?
Most english speakers in non-anglophonic global south coutries come from the rich upper-class or the urban middle class. The working class usually doesn't have time or how to study a new language when they barely have time to learn their own (this is not a huge problem in regions where one or two similar languages exist, since they can easily talk to eachother, but that does allow the local elite to communicate with the global north better than the working class).
agreed and exclusions apply for border cities/towns.
It applies to place subreddits in Anglophone regions too though, like US / Commonwealth cities
sure but you'd naievly expect anglos to be terrible while not expecting r/vietnam or the like to be where the children of traitors hang out and badmouth the revolution, but for the class character of english speakers who would use reddit. (to the extent that location sub users are even from there and not feds or basement nazis making shit up)
On the web you can connect to people from anywhere in the world, research anything you like, challenge your world view, find your blindspots, expand and update your mental model of the world.
Still some people just stay in their immediate geographical area and continue being ignorant and hateful and afraid.
I guess it makes sense that city subs are reactionary as fuck since that's where those people will cluster, forming the bulk of regular users.
Every latam subreddit is just full of chuds
Yep,
i'm happy to learn that it's not just me. lol
Absolute cesspool 99% of the time but worth a decent laugh when Sheinbaum does something especially cool
