... The demonstration is being promoted on social media by 8 million bots operating from outside the country, she said on Thursday during a daily news conference from the presidential palace.

"We agree with freedom of expression and freedom of demonstration if there are young people who have demands, but the issue here is who is promoting the demonstration," Sheinbaum said. "People should know how this demonstration was organized so that no one is used." ...

Yup ...

To Gaslighter these are online agitators....

Widespread protests in Mexico with Gen Z beating cops? Chants of "Fuera Morena" and "Narco-gobierno" say it all"burn the palace already. Escalating violence, corruption, and perceived government complicity with drug cartels under President Claudia Sheinbaum's Morena-led administration.

Nov 1st.

Carlos Manzo, mayor of Uruapan, #Michoacan, made a name for himself by criticizing his own party, #morena, for not doing enough against the cartels. He was just shot a few minutes ago and has been taken to the hospital in serious condition.

Its like Americans have no idea whats going on in Mexico, but somehow its got to be rightest or Trumps fault.

From everything I have seen Mexico, geography and climate is California, only bigger. Clean up the cartels and Mexico would be a Superpower in its own right.

@#4 ... Yeah sure blame outside agitators. ...

Your comment doe nothing to disprove what I posted. Indeed, it amplifies it, showing the results of that outside agitation.

Do try harder.

#4 #5 #6 ... There's a reason why Microsoft's "Clippy" was a failure:

Impotent suggestions and "facts."

Are you auditioning for Clippy 2.0?

The Gen Z anti-cartel protesters have managed to break through the police lines and into the Government Palace of Guadalajara at this moment.

Mexicans spray-painted "Jewish whore" on the National Palace gates in Mexico, following widespread discontent with Claudia Sheinbaum, the country's female Jewish president.

Almost certainly coming from a source aiming to destabilize "the west".

You Russians are always calling everyone you disagree with "Nazis".

That's what that stupid "Z" propaganda is all about. "We are 'Z', and everyone else is 'not Z'. Geddit?"
