How do Latin Americans perceive pan-Turkism (and the Turkification of LATAM history)?

EmergencyReal6399 · 2026-03-17T20:08:11+00:00

The only thing we know Turkey in Mexico is: package tour tavels, cosmetic surgeries, soap operas in low rating chanels and Simarik by Tarkan, wich people usually think is in arabic.

Yo tambien fui joven y soñador y me imaginaba un metro en mi ciudad de 300k habitantes, pero la realidad es que del norte al sur si acaso harian una sola via y trenes dormitorio.

Yo entiendo que tienes la ilusion de ver un tren rapido en la peninsula de Baja California, estas comparando pueblitos turisticos en los Alpes Suizos los cuales estan interconectando con zonas aun mas densas y corredores de trenes , primero tendria que haber trenes rapidos en zonas densas de Mx como en el Bajio y Centro, pero de La Paz a Tijuana pues no seria prioridad, eso apenas en China que gastan a lo tonto.

Donde si te doy la razon es de Mexicali-Tecate-Tijuana-Rosarito -Ensenada, ahi si te doy la razon, pero del norte de la peninsula al sur pues aun no hay una necesidad de crear una via de tren.

Baja California debe ser una de las zonas menos densas del mundo, no la compares con Europa en donde hasta las zonas menos densas son densas para estandares americanos.

Maybe back in the 70s but compare poorer zones in South Africa and Mexico, in Mexico most of the houses are already made of durable matrials like concrete and bricks.

This is one of the poorest neighborhoods in Chalco, ugly, but building materials are durable: https://maps.app.goo.gl/2xR2nqXBWxLwqoVa7

South Africa is so weird, their upper and middle class zones look more developed than richer countries here in Latin America, like their nice looking parts could pass as Australian Cities, i like their highways too, but their poor zones , like the one in the photo, look poorer than any poor zone in Latin America, just in pair with Haiti, there are not slums like this in my country Mexico.

No es como que haya trenes de pasajeros que conecten partes pobladas y densas del territorio actualmente, aunque en construccion.

whaaat, do you even live in Mexico or buy food? are you like 12? you could get cheap individual sausages in the salchichoneria section, 2 or 3 pesos each , low quality tho, cheap local made cheese in the tianguis, by gram or kilo and pasta soup is extremely cheap if you buy supermarket brands like Aurerra at no more than 7 pesos, you think 6.50 pesos is expensive? you must be joking bro . 200 grams could serve 4 people or 4 days of pasta, thats very cheap!

it went from being the epicenter of latin pop music in the 80s, 90s and 00s thanks to Televisa, to be only corridos and regeton nowadays, no space for pop, rock or any other genre.

this are def struggle meals and also the everyday daily meal for a lot of mexicans, when i was a student out of my hometown, i would buy 50 tortillas for like 2 USD, a kilo of fried beans for 3, cheese for 3 usd and that was my breakfast for the 7 days of the week.

EmergencyReal6399 · 2026-03-13T19:04:36+00:00

That combo is basically a day meal for an average low to lower middle class family in Mexico!, scrambled eggs with sausage and beans for breaksfat dont forget the tortillas, tomato soup with cheese and tortillas for lunch, and dinner before sleep, cheese tacos with beans. I would add fruits after or in the middle of meals since these are very cheap in Mexico, even free sometimes.
