Too funny..... But once again happy bite, “If it doesn’t make you laugh, then it isn’t true”!! – Lenny Bruce And hey, change the name "Xi" in your statement to the CCP, and you’re undoubtedly getting closer to a direct Bulls Eye.

“Sorry, I don´t know what other topic heading to use for this.” Why not put it under the “Uplifting Sidebar” thread? As I had earlier sensed, it was only a matter of time before polemic American politics would eke its way back onto this México forum, again giving local expats ‘a gleeful outlet’ to release predictably pent-up animosities.

JFTR, “accepting vast swaths of refugees and Europeans” foreigners as NEW Norwegian residents under ANY situational characterization, IS quite normally referred to as “immigrants”…… Worldwide. And that is certainly no misconstruing. In fact, if in doubt, ask the Americans!!! ‘-oby por KR - Off-Topic Forum

And if any of your friends are 'late bloomers' (or at minimum, are Slow Learners) then perhaps your invitation may prove to eventually be a rather sensible one, AND, might well be duly accompanied by an inevitably requisite, and perhaps ever-welcome Exodus Pole Vault…..

“Nicaragua…… rather grimy and third-worldish which is not too surprising seeing its recent history, civil wars, earthquakes etc.” I especially adored the still proudly-worn (now rotting) Che Guevara ‘caps’, Gil, as yet another shining example of Successful Socialism at work!!

Definitely worth a visit, PA, and definitely small-town-ish 'sorta' like Puerto "20 years ago"...... at least like Zicatela.... though purportedly growing fast these days. While its been a few years since our last visit, San Juan del Sur is (or at least was) a bit timely to get to from Managua, though such back-then arduous travel was well worth the often Good surf and reguby por KR - Off-Topic Forum
Pursuant to a recent reference on our TZ Oaxaca forum, what is the actual current state of affairs with land title validity at Tenacatita? Have the Guadalajara developer's 'legal' land claims finally won-out, and have all earlier existing property owners conclusively lost their original titles (both Mexican national and foreigner land owners)?

"Rumor" has it, delmar, that Norteño migration is LARGELY due to A). the more solvent economic option / potential in The Land Of Opportunity, is B). a FAR more ‘safe’ environment in The Land Of Enforced Laws, and C). is a far, FAR more attractive ‘future’ in The Land Of Public Safety Nets…… primarily A+ modern healthcare access alone.by por KR - Off-Topic Forum
. Hopefully, México’s Indigenous Peoples will continue to learn as much historically from their northern indigenous neighbors, as obviously has the Mexican Fed from its northern Central Government neighbors…. “historically”! Commandeering water rights is A BIGGIE…… and Guererro alone is a prime example, fueled largely by foreign Canadian mining investment interests.by por KR - Off-Topic Forum
Incredible EH…… (but indeed stylish!!). Though, while the mandatory citizen autodefensas in Michoacán always had my vote, I would venture to predict that the article terribly misstated that “the Knights Templar has been gutted” in the area.by por KR - Off-Topic Forum
Aaaaaah, come on Derfie….. Live and Let Live, bra.

Actually “Mag”, I would guestimate that an independent thread of this caliber might well be FAR more productive if reserved solely for lodging complaints.
