Is being antivaxxer liberal?
Is it liberal to give the milita full control of some goverment things and business (even if it’s unconstitutional)?
Is it liberal to destroy natural resources even if the court says it’s illegal and to stop it?
Is it liberal to cut funds from science, arts, school, medicine and public transportation?
Is it liberal to threaten people to vote for you or they lose that social support (we have a lot of bribes going)?
Is it liberal to claim being a feminist just because she is a woman, while she keeps protecting rapists and misogynists (making such comments herself)?
Is it liberal to destroy the previously independent organisms by filling them with your own people, defund them and then say they should close because they aren’t doing their job?
If so, then yes, she is extremely liberal because that’s just the tip of the iceberg…
They just elected Claudia Sheinbaum, who is seen as being extremely close to the outgoing president AMLO. Some people were suggesting that she was so close to him that it was really his way of getting another term as president, similar to how Putin stepped down as president of Russia to become PM while Dmitry Medvedev became president in name only.
How true is that? It’s hard to say. My guess is that a lot of it is sexism, thinking that a woman can’t think for herself and a woman president will turn to someone else for the important decisions.
But, it’s true that under AMLO, there was a lot of democratic backsliding in Mexico. OTOH, Mexico has been dominated by PAN and PRI for decades. In fact, PRI won 14 elections in a row between 1928 and 1994. It wasn’t until Vincente Fox in 2000 that PAN was even a factor. So, there’s a lot of the power structures in Mexico geared towards supporting PRI and PAN.
They were probably undermining a lot of the things AMLO wanted to accomplish. If he had followed all the rules and norms he might not have been able to accomplish anything because the establishment would have blocked everything he tried to do. That doesn’t excuse his rule and law breaking, but it does contextualize it.
We’ll see what happens with Sheinbaum. I, for one, am fucking thrilled that Mexico’s president has a PhD in energy engineering. The fact she’s a woman is also historical, but to me the doctorate is more important.
Thanks for proving my point, you have no idea what is going on inside my country, yet already stepped in to parrot the propaganda going all over Reddit and Lemmy.

Oh let me give you the missing piece, the Kks (aka. AMLO) is still living inside Palacio Nacional and forced Shitbaum to live there too (she said during her campaign she was analysing not living there and just going back to what previous presidents did), from there he’s still giving her instructions and telling her what to do and say.
Hence why we mexicans call her the presirvienta (like a presidential maid), as the expresident Kks is still calling the shots and telling her what to do and say, most of the picks for goverment positions were his picks, not hers, and she’s still working to make the expresident’s sons richer (example: they were ordered to give the vapes back to the black market because his son wanted that control and money, they passed it under the excuse of health reasons, but those same reasons could apply to tobacco and alcohol, but they feigned ignorance so by summer, any kind of electrical smoking device will be banned, yet they have caught the expresident’s son vaping multiple times).
My guess is that a lot of it is sexism, thinking that a woman can’t think for herself and a woman president will turn to someone else for the important decisions.
Please don’t swallow the Kool-Aid that deep, most people don’t give 2 shits if it’s a man or woman as president, but we care when the expresident Kks said she was gonna be doing what he started and she said it was right, she was gonna do what was already in movement, no analysis or question about it, just as she’s told to do (wish I was joking but that was her electoral platform).
She’s called a puppet or presirvienta because she acts like one, she doesn’t dare to stand up for herself (not even to apply the nepotism she wished to) because Morena and allies are a fucking cult.

This is true, the destruction of the mangle, burning fuel oil to stop the green energies, berating of the air space, worsening the educational curriculum, giving almost full control to the military and the electoral fraud, all those were things that the Kks wouldn’t have done if he followed the law, hence why his crussade agains the magistery has been consumated under the rule of Shitbaum (as she was ordered to do), now we will have people who have no idea about laws (some didn’t even knew they were nominated) voted in next summer, all so they can do as they please without being contested (and Lemmy users were celebrating this).
I mean, people criticize US for giving Trump full power by filling congress and such with Republicans and placing conspirationists in places of power, here is the same, everything is filled with Morena’s cultists, yet I don’t see them being criticized for passing everything without even reading it just because the Kks ordered to.
We’ll see what happens with Sheinbaum. I, for one, am fucking thrilled that Mexico’s president has a PhD in energy engineering.
Oh yes, a PhD she cheated to get, sadly the UNAM didn’t have the balls to act on it (if they had, she wouldn’t have been able to run for president) even when they had all the proof on their plate, they just waited until she was elected and buried it deep.
Even if it was a real PhD, what good is it? She already gutted the funds for science, art, medicine (vaccines for the newborns? medicine for the people with cancer? COVID vaccines? fuck them all, amirite?), schools, public transportation, general maintenance for public services, the organisms that are meant to keep goverment in check (CNDH, INAI, INE, IFT and such); she supports her boss’ antivaxx position, won’t be taking back power illegally given to the military and experimented with Ivermectin during covid on patients without their consent during her time as governor.
The fact she’s a woman is also historical,
And she already shitted all over that, during her time as governor she speciallized on throwing the special forces on the feminist protests to protect the image of the expresident.
During her election proccess she was the one making mysoginist remarks.
She refuses to meet with feminist movements or the mothers looking for their missing families and (as I said before) she’s keeping the CNDH (the organism that is supposed to keep the human rights for the citizens) defunded and paralized.
Everyone who isn’t licking their boots, is a traitor, a misogynist, a racist, ungrateful, fascist and many other insults she keeps slinging every day from her misinformation platform (again, something the Kks forced her to keep doing).
Just because she is a woman who claims to be feminist doesn’t mean she is one (just like when a populist claims to be from the left)… at least, her acts speak louder and against her.
but to me the doctorate is more important.
See my previous point on why it’s pointless wether she has one or not.
All in all, thanks for showing everyone why I can’t recommend my people to move to Lemmy, most of us complain about mexican reddit mods being in cahoots or too permisive when it comes to propagandists from our goverment, their comments might get buried and they might flail insults everywhere, but they aren’t even warned.
Here we have a lot of normal(?) users giving their uninformed opinion about our country and (as you can see) anyone who gets angry (with good reason) about it just gets downvoted to hell and just go source? source? source?, but guess what? the fucking sources are there but they are all in spanish (because mexican, lol) so it’s fucking pointless (also most of those claims aren’t hard to find, but, again, you have to speak spanish).
This is heaven for the propagandists.
I’ve talked with other mexican Reddit users and they don’t dare to create a community here for the same reason, we knew what happened to Mujico (again, they federate with grad so not a great example) and we fear to get overwhelmed by people who have no idea what’s actually happening in México, but they just have to parrot the propaganda.
Didn’t they just elect a fairly liberal president?

Just for the lols, let me drop some decent (maybe decent is a strong word, but you get the idea) critics of this goverment just in case someone actually understand spanish:
