Whether you or even Mexicans themselves want to admit it, we're half native and half conqueror in theory. You're right in that the first Mexican was born after the conquest. It's an identity crisis, but we have both sides in us and one is not more important or relevant than the other.
However, as soon as Mexicans were created, the land that is California, Arizona, etc., was Mexico. WE are native to this land as Native Americans, and again as Mexicans.
I don't give a fuck what goes on in South Dakota, but in California we're running shit whether folks like it or not. 2025 isn't too far away, Spanish will be a native language of Cali as well as English. Believe me.
LOL@ me not wanting to get into it on this thread. I guess I lied.
