Mexico is a country south of the United States, and many US immigrants are Mexicans, yet saying the word "Mexico" and calling something "Mexico" has become derogatory in California, so when and how did that happen?

    the technological and scientific development level in all Spanish-speaking countries is about the same.

    Mexico would have developed better by speaking American English.

    This is just racist propaganda with no basis in fact. Blocked and reported.

    if the United States speaks Spanish instead of American English, it would certainly not have developed into the country it is today.
