hot take: Pocho is the Mexican version of Cubas ‘gusano’

before you get upset hear me out

the american train of thought and education is set up to indoctrinate us at a young age, on top of that Mexican-Americas are raised under a reactionary system built on loyalty to the U.S.

so when people say ‘pocho’ most of the time they’re not talking about out language or culture (these topics do come up) they’re criticizing a mindset shaped by Americanzation, especially if they look down on Mexican, reject their roots, and repeat colonial language about Mex/Chic
