One of the things I have always curiously noted about PC correctness in the US, is that the rest of the world is not at the same level of awareness. Homosexualism, racism, sexism and the like are very much every day joke material here in PR and I am sure in many places in Latin America and the rest of the world. Anyways, Vicente Fox, in an effort to praise and point out the importance of Mexican workers in the US, said something that triggered massive indignation from American black groups.
So, now Fox has apologized and nothing has happened. So the American public, be it black, white (white white as in British, or poor white Irish descent, or worse white Italian guido, etc and all these insane labels some people still attach to themselves after fifteen generations of living in continental US, ok, derailing rant here), Newyorican, Chicano, Jew or American Indian can pretend that the rest of the world is riding the same PC correct bus as them. Or that the PC correct bus will transport them to equality paradise, because what is not said in public is automatically erased from people's deep ingrained bias, and not passed on to children in the comfort of their own homes.
We go on our merry way and leave the PC people to their utopian dreams. I will stop my rant here, because just now they are showing Molotov's Frijolero video, and it is funny as hell:
"Don't call me Gringo, you f***ing beaner
Stay on your side of that goddamn river
Don't call me Gringo, you beaner."
Molotov - Frijolero lyrics
P.D.: My boyfriend is part of the African American community, so I understand the contributions people of African descent have made to the progress of humanity. I apologize for the condescending tone my offensive blog post has towards all these good multicolored, multisexed and multireligioned citizens of our Great Nation. It is God's will that we not fuck up erm, sorry, not waste this opportunity at the great glories of Babel. I disavow any unsavory. misguided comments that may offend you and not point out that maybe you have taken them to heart needlessly, or lost your grip on the reality of the size of the dot that marks your spot as seen from space. As always, your money is very welcome, thanks.
