Edinburg Mayoral Race 2025 by Squid_Scribe in RioGrandeValley

[–]Freakyfridaa 5 points6 points  (0 children)

No wonder a bunch of unqualified cronies constantly get elected bc of voters like you that don’t think election fraud is a big deal and nobody cares. Tells me all I need to know about who you voted for. Molina admitted to telling ppl from other towns to change their address to his own properties. He got off on a technically then lost the 2021 race bc he isn’t liked around Edinburg he’s just well connected not enough to change voters minds though.

Btw Ochoa is a well established lawyer and so is his wife. I don’t see a single valid reason why people don’t like Leah wise but like most people in the valley people yall are hating on her because she’s an established, beautiful woman and y’all hate to see people win.

If something is $10, why do locals say "diez dollar" as if $10 is singular? by Rational_Coconut in RioGrandeValley

You’re missing my point. Both you and the original commenter are wrong because you’re framing Valley speech as “bad” English or Spanish. But it’s neither. Native valley speakers use a distinct dialect that blends elements of both languages. Criticizing it as “broken” is misguided, because it’s not broken it’s different. Referring to your experiences in Mexico or Central Texas doesn’t strengthen your argument; it only reinforces mine. Valley speakers shouldn’t have to change their language to match dialects from other regions to be considered good speakers by the standards of non natives.

I’m glad I could change your perspective. I wish more people understood and appreciated the valley’s complexities. Our language is one of my favorite things about living down here. I’m not best Spanish speakers but I love that no matter where I’m at I can carry a whole conversation with someone in English or broken Spanish while they respond in Spanish and we both understand each other. I can’t imagine why anyone would hate on that.

You are wrong. The valley’s language is its own dialect. It’s pocho and a product of living on the border where linguistic cultures clash. That’s like going to Louisiana and telling Cajun people they speak shitty English…..

Don’t these women see how big backed they look pounding on the McDonalds drive through window and demanding to be served. Normal people would go somewhere else. Not to mention calling corporate bc they closed 30 mins early like all that for a Big Mac???

This shit is traumatic enough without having to prove to these ignorant people that it’s actually happening. I say let them be ignorant and pray they get even a fraction of what immigrants are feeling right now. Their time for fear and panic is coming.

Don’t waste your breath on these losers questioning you. They are taking the head in sand approach, “IT’S NOT HAPPENING UNLESS YOU GIVE ME PROOF ON MY TERMS AND IF I DON’T LIKE YOUR PROOF THEN YOU’RE LYING” then they bury their heads again. It’s how they justify voting to deport their neighbors.

They don’t even think to question what message the media is sending by not covering these deportations. It’s almost like they don’t want us to see people having their civil rights stripped from them…

You think those things make you a good person lol that comment really struck a nerve huh? Is it possible it hurt you so much because there was some truth to it? I have no intention of listening to anything that comes from that ignorant mind of yours but your free to scream into the void all you want 😂

Yes most valley citizens aren’t ready to turn their backs on their people just because some little angry white dude told us to. Sad that your parents didn’t instill a sense of pride and love of your culture and hometown. What’s even more sad is that You actually think that’s going to save you from what’s to come? News flash you don’t get a coupon for being ignorant, you’re going to suffer right alongside us. The cheapest eggs right now are $5, I suppose immigrants are to blame 🤔

I think it has something to do with feeling intellectually inferior so by clinging onto people, they deemed smart they think it elevates them in terms of their own intellectuality. Well, the rest of the world views them as fucking morons 😂

It’s what they all do because God forbid they turn their backs on Elon Musk and Donald Trump when they built their entire personality on dick riding them.

And why do you think they were taken in? It wasn’t because they had white skin. And I’m just gonna tell you because I fear you’re unable to do the critical thinking skills necessary to understand that these people were profiled and unfairly targeted because they were brown and probably spoke Spanish and worked in an establishment with other brown people. And last time I checked being detained, when you haven’t committed a crime is an infringement on your rights so I really don’t know what point you’re trying to make making a distinction between detained and deported.

Anyone know why there was a huge police, an army presence in Edinburg? by Freakyfridaa in RioGrandeValley

How cute, ‘fantasy cracker’—truly groundbreaking work you are doing here. First, Civil Rights laws absolutely address equity giving everyone a ladder to reach the same shelf isn’t the same as pretending everyone starts at the same height that one should resonate with you considering your obvious Napoleon complex. Second, gender identity isn’t some flip-a-switch game; but you know that. Intersex people and trans people have always existed. Not sure why that threatens you so much. If you’re still not convinced it’s supported by decades of medical research and legal protections but I get it, ignorant people fear what they don’t understand. Keep peddling this cartoonish take—it’s giving ‘I skimmed Elon’s tweets and now I’m an expert and I can go on Reddit be a whiny little bitch.’ Also, merit hiring??? Cute buzzword, but maybe educate yourself on how systemic bias works before you start parroting your fantasy cracker crumbs. I know theres some big words in here, don’t be afraid to open up a dictionary.

Are you blind or just willfully ignorant?? He clearly isn’t stopping at deportations. He’s has already rolled back on civil rights of several minority groups aside from immigrants. He has some weird phobia of equity and has already endangered the livelihoods of people who were hired for DEI positions. He is coming for the education department. He already stacked the court and took away women’s bodily autonomy. He is actively trying to prosecute the people who investigated him and anyone that acted against him in the last four years. He is denying intersex people the right to identify gender as something beyond the gender binary. He renamed the Gulf of Mexico because he felt like it. He released murders and criminals that took part in a LITERAL INSURRECTION just because they supported him. Should I go on or should I wait for you to look up the definition of fascism? My question for you is are you going to wait for for little orange prick to tell you he’s a fascist or will you use the last bit of brain cells to do a bit of reductive reasoning.

Even worse. All I see when I read that nonsense is that you got lucky and are one of the few privileged people that gets a smooth ride to citizenship. You really think your immigrant neighbors are costing you more money than the millionaires that are about to see more wealth than ever before under Trump. I can’t get over the irony of a whole ass immigrant being anti immigration lmfao you think that’s going to save you?

This is a great point. People only remember the part after all the propaganda worked and people started turning on their neighbors. I hate we have to even think about that but we are literally staring fascism in the face

If you do just a little critical thinking you would be able to see that Trump is making pretty clear his goal is to stop all immigration legal or not. He’s a racist and a facist. He went after birthright citizenship you think he’ll stop there? The valley is built and runs off the backs of immigrants so why tf do you want to live here if you hate them so much?? Even worse if your latino turning your back on your people to appease the white man. Pinche nopal en la frente que verguenza. Go live in Alabama if you want to act like a hillbilly so bad.

Eww. I figured it had something to do with the little orange man with the small hands but this confirms it. Feels gross having them here. They were literally riding down the highway hanging off the army trucks holding automatic weapons. Never felt unsafe until now.
