Dear European Americans

If you are European American who is currently trying to escape the United States, and calling Mexico your new home, please stay. This one is for you.

There is a deep anger in me that I will try to put into gentle words so that you may understand it. Although I must admit this conversation is going to be difficult.

Dear European Americans, let me be clear, this is not a polite request, this is a reckoning. For generations your people have displaced, dehumanized, and erased mine.

Long before the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, you invaded Mexican territory with violent entitlement. You burned, lynched, and terrorized Mexican people in your pursuit of 'Manifest Destiny'.

You took half of our territory by force then had the audacity to treat the people you displaced as 'illegals' -- as outsiders -- in the very land that you stole from under their feet. After the treaty, you promised rights to Mexicans who suddenly found themselves living under the United States.

But instead, you delivered broken promises, racial violence, segregation, more land theft, and systemic exclusion. You lynched Mexicans by the thousands, you banned our language in schools, you denied us access to the institutions built on our very own land.

During the 'Great Depression' millions of Mexicans -- many of whom were US citizens – were 'repatriated' in mass deportations, meant to scapegoat us for your economic failures much like the 'Zio- cock lover small time Hitler wannabe', D̶o̶n̶a̶l̶d̶ Adolf Trump,

is doing today utilizing his terrorists, masked goons. We were used, discarded, and blamed; sounds awfully familiar, does not it?

And, yes, now under the thin skinned fascist bastards in the Trump Administration we are being hunted again: caged, separated from our children, our humanity questioned, our people made into political punching bags so white supremacy can breathe easier.

And while this war rages on against my people, many of you – the same ones who voted-in this Zio- Nazi regime, who is terrifying my people, who helped them orchestrate this cruelty -- are fleeing to Mexico, colonizing it again!

You come with your dollars, your airbnb's, your refusal to learn Spanish, your gentrifying process. You are displacing the very people your country is torturing. You inflate rents, drain resources, push out locals, and then demand to be served with the same entitled attitudes that stripped my ancestors off their land.

Do you see the cycle? Or do you just not care? Mexico is not your escape hatch, it is not a healing retreat for you, it is not a consolation prize, we are not your host.

If you truly loved your country, you would stay and fight. You would dismantle the systems that allow you to run when things get uncomfortable while we are forced to stay and suffer. You would resist instead of retreat.

Mexico is for Mexicans. And that is not a slogan. It is a truth born from blood, resistance, and history.

Let my people seek refuge in the land that birthed them. Let us have space to breathe, to heal, to live without the weight of your entitlement crushing us.

Once again. We have carried the burden of your comfort for way too long. Do not ask us to carry it across the border, too.

Again, we are not your host. We are the people who have endured centuries of displacement, violence, and theft. And we are asking you to s̶t̶o̶p̶ FUCK OFF.

Do not come to our land with your privilege and entitlement, acting as if Mexico owes you peace, safety, and hospitality. Let us have our land, our language, and our safety.

Sincerely, a descendant of resistance.
