(Jul. 12, 2023) — Mexico has a new foreign minister.
Marcelo Ebrard recently stepped down from that post to run for president of Mexico.
His replacement is Alicia Barcena. Her most recent job was Mexican ambassador to Chile and she has also worked for the United Nations and the World Economic Forum.
On July 10, Foreign Minister Barcena wrote an op-ed in the prominent Mexican newspaper El Universal.
The piece is entitled, “De México al mundo: por una diplomacia de paz, efectiva y cercana a la gente” – “From Mexico to the World: For a Diplomacy of Peace, Effective and Close to the People.”
Barcena discusses Mexico’s relations with the U.S. and Canada, Latin America, Europe and other regions.
But the main country Mexico’s diplomacy focuses upon is the United States of America. That’s because of the large Mexican and Mexican-American population residing here.
The biggest consular network in the entire world is the Mexican consular network in the United States, with over 50 Mexican consulates on U.S. soil.
In the seventh paragraph of her op-ed, Barcena writes this: “Our country is strongly linked to the United States and Canada. With our neighbors to the north we are linked by commerce and an intense and constant dialogue on a diversity of issues, but we are also united by very rich framework of family and social relationships.”
The first part is clearly referring to the membership of Mexico, Canada, and the U.S. in the United States–Mexico–Canada Agreement (USMCA), which replaced NAFTA during the Trump administration.
But the last part talks about the “very rich framework of family and social relationships.” She appears to be referring to the large Mexican and Mexican-descended population in the United States.
By the way, in Mexico, American-born persons of Mexican descent are considered Mexicans, even though they were born in the U.S.
In the tenth paragraph, she writes, “Foreign policy should be a lever of development at the service of our connacionales…” That word literally means “fellow-nationals,” which, in this case, would signify “fellow Mexicans.” It is frequently used to refer to Mexicans living in the U.S.
Minister Barcena says Mexican foreign policy should be “at the service of our fellow-Mexicans (connacionales), close to the people and which defends the interests of Mexico and of Mexicans.”
Well, of course, Mexican foreign policy should defend the “interests of Mexico and of Mexicans.” The problem for us is that the Mexican government meddles in U.S. internal affairs, while our politicians (of both parties) seem to have no objection.
In the twelfth paragraph, the Barcena gets more specific.
“The historic vocation of Mexican diplomacy obliges us to empower the work of protecting the female and male connacionales [fellow Mexicans] who live abroad,” she writes.
There are small groups of Mexicans living in many countries. But about 98% of Mexicans residing outside Mexico live in the United States. So when they talk about “Mexicans living abroad,” they’re mainly referring to those in the U.S.A.
For full effect, allow me to quote her “historic vocation” sentence along with the sentence that follows:
“The historic vocation of Mexican diplomacy obliges us to empower the work of protecting the female and male connacionales [fellow Mexicans] who live abroad. Especially in upcoming months, when the electoral process in the United States will fan the flames of xenophobia and racism.”
The Mexican foreign minister confidently assumes that our election process will “fan the flames of xenophobia and racism.”
That sounds bad. What does it really mean?
Mexican government officials don’t think American citizen-voters really have the right to question our immigration system. In their minds, we certainly don’t have a right to demand our government control the borders, deport illegal aliens or reduce immigration.
Such things are, in the view of the government of Mexico, xenophobic and racist – and the Biden administration would agree.
So, remember, American voters – the government of Mexico does not want you questioning our immigration policy.
If you do, you are “xenophobic” and “racist.”
Whose country is this, anyway?

https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/racism :
“Racism and racist appear to be words of recent origin, with no citations currently known that would suggest these words were in use prior to the early 20th century.”
I am a racist; it is natural that I would be.
Therefore, you and I and all fully conscious humanity are racist since it is NATURAL that we would be.
On what day, in what year, at what hour in the evolution of man did “racism” sensations first begin? On what day, in what year, at what hour in the evolution of man will “racism” sensations cease to exist in any human thought anywhere on planet Earth? How will anyone know when that moment of racial sensation cessation arrives?
ANSWER: I now believe that the human sensations of “racism” always began/begin with the race of each human being’s own formative sperm to the egg. Every sperm for himself or herself, naturally, racing to the egg, and all the other sperms died during this Race of the Sperms that initiates the possible gestation-formation of human beings to possibly go on in time to be born, begin breathing the same atmospheric air that we all share on this planet, as we enter the Human Race.
So, whenever Al Sharpton and other “race hu$tler$” chide white folks for being racist, it is like he is chiding white folks for still breathing air after all these years! It’s like he’s condemning white folks for still being white-pigmented after all these years! IT’S LIKE HE’S CONDEMNING NATURE, FOR PROFIT, FOR MAKING HUMANS DIFFERENT AND NOT ALL THE SAME! 100% RIP-OFF NON$EN$E!

So, maybe we are hearing it first on this world-premier P&E website: Let’s now all accept that “racism” is as natural as “jealousy” and “adultery” and “lust”, et al, and, therefore, “racism” sensations have been, and always will be, a part of humanity, naturally, and it always is renewed with the “raceism” of our own natural race of our individual creating sperm to our mother’s egg, with each sperm desperately trying to excel, to get ahead of other sperms, to be superior to all competing sperms. – JD Mooers
“RACISM” IS NOT “GOOD” and neither is AFFIRMATIVE discriminACTION.
“RACISM” IS NOT “BAD” so don’t try to profit on solve-nothing rip-off “reparation$”, and other nefarious schemes.
“FORMATIVE RACEISM-TO-EVERYDAY RACISM” IS NATURAL since Nature Rules! and human nature follows, forever.
Arrest Al Sharpton and Alicia Barcena and all other race baiter$ for their attempted robbery of natural-reality for personal profit and promotion of harmful narrative-realities!
Human arrogance has no borders.
Arrogant-apparent Alicia Barcena, if you are reading this, look in the mirror someday and HUMBLY recite this ditty of HUMAN reality:
Racism is here to stay,
It’s always been that way;
No lofty legislations nor monied “reparations” nor hurled “racist” monikers can make it go away,
Because racism is as natural as jealousy and gravity and shadows on a sunny day!- JD Mooers
I intend to vote for Trump, which means I am already being called xenophobic and racist. When I consider who is doing the name calling, I would be more upset if they were not calling me names…….
