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.
