>>112594>bets are you're a chilango. Part of my family is (I don't even interact with them much), but I live in the south, so I will talk about the south.
Yes, there are poor/working class families here that are either very religious or have issues, and who are simply ignorant about socialism+consume internet propaganda or oppose socialism because of past anti-religious persecution+red scare Catholic propaganda. But there's also religious/poor people who support or are neutral towards socialism, Cuba, the Zapatistas, etc. And this includes peasants and people who come from rural areas as well as some teachers and students in the city. Although yeah, there's plenty of people here who don't really give much of a fuck about politics beyond treating parties in the elections like football teams, but they don't really feel strongly about politics either way. It's not as bad as it is with gringos, that's for sure.
>I live in the north east.fugg that explains it
I'm sorry for you, dude.
The "communism = no food" or "socialism = poverty" meme is mostly an upper class thing where I live and even then I barely hear it. I mean, it makes sense to me, since they do have something to lose if a revolution were to happen, they cling onto that myth more than poor farmers for example.
