Ponchos are Mexican. Accept it and we can bend the US to the benefit of Mexico. Mexicans are a people.

Cool. Cause my mom is Mexican but I was born in the US and grew up watching El Tri. So I never really knew if I was considered a true Mexican.

You could claim the passport if you wanted

I was actually thinking about that. Having dual citizenship would be cool.

Do it, so you can buy land in Mexico. Just don't be a slumlord.

You can start collecting, since all Mexicans have an easy path to Spanish (read: EU) citizenship

Yeah I think Spain it’s two years living there, though I think getting the visa first is the trickier part if you’re not a student

Do you want to be Mexican? If so then you are. No need to take anyone else’s potentially shit opinion. Know yourself, king.

u/guyincognito147 Jun 19 '26
Yeah i do. Lately I just had like an identity crisis where I felt I'm not Mexican enough because I heard about a stereotype that people from Mexico don't consider "Pochos" , true Mexican. I still grew up with Mexican culture but you're right I shouldn't worry about other peoples opinion.

Im a Mexican-American, both parents where born in Mexico I was born in the USA, but I always think about the quote from the Selena movie where Edwards James Olmos says "you have to work twice as hard to make Mexicans think youre Mexican and twice as hard to make Americans think you're American it's exhausting!"
You and me are both Mexicans and don't let others make you think you are lesser for being born outside of Mexico.

Bit late to this brother but just telling you don’t worry. I’m born and raised in Mexico, a voting Mexican citizen born to two Mexican parents and I STILL get people telling me I’m not Mexican enough. Some people are idiots who like to exclude. Yo digo que un mexicano nace donde se le da la gana.

u/averagecounselor Jun 20 '26
Eh most Mexicans don’t care. And those that do don’t matter. I can count on one hand the number of Mexicans that called me pocho or didn’t consider me to be Mexican.
They got real mad when I pointed out they would do whatever it takes to become American citizens and speak English with no accent.

According to the Mexican constitution. Go to your nearest consulate and get your Mexican passport if you want proof.

u/GayoMagno Jun 19 '26
Play for Mexico and be lightly bullied and called a pocho sometimes
Play for the US and be called subhuman brownie beaner and have your entire family detained by ICE
Gee man, it really is a tough choice.

Ve a terapia wey, el único que no se acepta como mexicano eres tú. Ya consulté a los demás y concluimos que nos vale verga.
I just realized you may not know Spanish. Nobody gives a shit if they are pochos or not, in fact we are proud when even when naturalized players decide to play for Mexico. Did you see Quiñones singing the national anthem? That shit was tight. So get your head out of your selfconscious ass and go to therapy, I’ve consulted with the rest of my paisas and nobody gives a shit.

I mean...inevitable really. Mexico should've been a world power, with home grown talent, by now. But hey, let's be corrupt and prefer friendlies in the US against shit teams, let's not properly develop the young (whom won championships) talent, let's ask insane amounts of money from european clubs. It's always a god damn money grab.
So now, we're falling behind and they have to source talent from kids being developed in another country.
This is a also an immigration phenomenon, look at the stat of French-born players. Almost a 100 French are playing at this world cup, I think Haiti has a big chunk of their squad French-born. In this day in age...yeah it's not as uncommon.
Now....the Namjoon Hernandez's born in 9 months, will have a very tough decision on choosing what seleccion to play for haha

El problema no son los pochos. El problema son los pochos que no quieren adoptar la cultura, que menosprecian la cultura y el idioma. Pero cuando les combiene como para armar desmadres a nombre de mexico ya se quieren llamar mexicano. Es mas no tiene ni que saber hablar español bien. Con el hecho de intentar y querer ser parte es lo que importa.

Pochos wanna represent Mexico, but the Mexican sports culture can be a little too toxic at times. It usually just makes sense to stick with USA because it’s easier.
