Date: April 13th, 2026 12:32 AM Author: in the naked no. there is a far higher percent of native blood in mexico than in North America even among the "mestizos". And Mexico has a different policy than the US about what gets called "indigenous" or not. Anyone who lives in a modern city, speaks spanish, wears "modern" style clothes gets considered "mestizo" regardless of percent indigenous blood, but in mexico the mestizos can have high as like 80% indigenous (I think the avg is like 55% but it often goes up to 70-80% which is insane because even "native" classified peoples in the US are much lower). There are millions of mexicans that are as high as 100%, these are the ones that live in villages and speak indigenous languages and wear traditional clothing. They are the only ones who are actually classified by Mexico as indigenous. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5856259&forum_id=2ค1¤7PHPSESSID=188a95202f833e097d78c96d76bac3f6#49813551) |

Date: April 13th, 2026 6:58 AM Author: in the naked Yes for sure unequivocally. The Tlaxcalans who helped Cortes dismantle Tenochtitlan were not a genetically alien group it was the same genetic lineage, the Nahua speaking groups. Aztec was actually a more recent cultural/ethnic crystallization but same people, and they just get called mestizo or indigenous "mexicans" now instead of Aztec. Mayan populations in the Yucatan, Guatemala etc. have much stronger cultural/genetic continuity because the Spanish consolidation there was slower and patchier and met with more resistance. There are something like 8 million Maya speakers still around with significant genetic, cultural, linguistic continuity to the pre-columbian Mayan civs (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5856259&forum_id=2ค1¤7PHPSESSID=188a95202f833e097d78c96d76bac3f6#49813713) |

Date: April 12th, 2026 8:49 AM Author: ,.,..,.,..,.,.,.,..,.,.,,..,..,.,,..,.,,. genetics are part of it, but not the whole story, since pure natives like the mayans are among the most peaceable populations in modern mexico, as opposed to the absolutely buckwild mestizo cartel guys.
you also have different genetic expressions in different regions; brazilian violence has a very pronounced and explicit sub-saharan element (kind of like jamaica or something) while mexico and central america do not aside from belize and the caribbean coast.
the aztecs were famously violent, but also socialized in the sense that their society could act in a unitary fashion. meaning that if certain forms or types of violence were disallowed by the chief, those behaviors would stop.
this is similar in character to groups like chechens, who actually have a fairly low crime rate in their region when they aren't explicitly at war.
the 'mestizaje' process seems to have removed the cultural capacity to 'down-regulate' characteristics such as violence. mestizos in mexico have always had a high background rate of violence. historical estimates of the mexican murder rate a century ago put it incredibly high, up around 60 or 70 per 100,000. that was pre-cartel; proto-cartel structures as we know them didn't really emerge until the 1970's.
mexico's murder rate reached its modern lows somewhere around 15 per 100K in the early-2000's, prior to the cartel wars which largely kicked off in 2006. the rate could presumably drop that low again if the cartels reach a more stable configuration and stop fighting for territory all the time.
going lower than that would require the outright incarceration of somewhere between 3 and 5% of the male population, which would basically be the el salvador strategy. but mexico actually lacks basic state capacity over parts of its territory in places like guerrero or sinaloa in a way that el salvador never did. |
|
Date: April 12th, 2026 8:53 AM Author: Oneirine Thats kind of what I am alluding to--all the groups--pure Europeans, mestizos, and pygmies are all violent as furk. And I think it's because of the roots of the nations--Portugese and Spanish just looting the countries with no regards for forming coherent societies.
How is it that they are so much more violent than their host countries or prior civilisations? I can't even think of a country that runs as a democracy. |

Date: April 12th, 2026 8:57 AM Author: Big Clique Energy The crime you’re talking about was mostly caused by urbanization starting mid century or so. Mario Vargas Llosa wrote about this (as did many others). Those favelas and shantytowns outside every major LatAm city did not exist before massive population shifts of rural poor moving into cities. If you look at pics of Rio or Lima from the 1950s or so it looks like Europe.
It’s not to say those rural poor weren’t violent before but it was away from the cities so no one cared, plus it was not urban and organized.
Imagine if in North America we had 1000x as many Indians, they were never killed off, and around 1960 or so they all migrated to NYC, Chicago, etc. And since there were not enough jobs or housing they built permanent Hoovervilles in a ring around every downtown. Not enough work or welfare so they sell shit on the street everywhere, sell drugs, join gangs, etc. |
