IMHO: Mexico is more racist hence in part why so many of the illegals from there have dark skin.
Despite color differences, I disagree with your statement. Unlike the U.S, Mexico's racism is not out in the open. It is rarely pointed out by anyone. Sure I will hear the occasional "Indigenous peoples are ugly compared to the lighter skinned ones", but thats about as bad as it gets. There are no real hate groups targeting indigenous peoples or any one of dark colored unless you go to Spain.
I think many of us who grew up around the regular "Mexican-Americans" have been shocked over the years to visit Mexico and see that all the better jobs are given to the more Anglo or "Spanish" looking types...I knew it was blatant racism as soon as I saw it.

It is in a way, but people don't really think about it that way. As an American, yes I do notice these things. But as an American, we are the only one who points out these things. So you tell me whats more racist, the things that are happening? Or us pointing them out?
I would think that pointing out how acclimated a society is toward racism is not racist at all. If Mexico is indeed a very racist nation, pointing out that fact is not racist. I don't know if Mexico is biased toward racism, I've never visited Mexico except for short business stays when I was much younger and such thoughts never came to mind.

Sorry but you just made no real sense at all. You seem to think it is ok for Mexicans to point supposed racism and/or bigotry they think has been shown them from an American but yet you say that we really should not say anything about Mexicans. How droll that is and shows your true feelings. Meixcans are far more racist and bigoted than any American.

I said that Mexicans don't point out racism like we in America do. And I still disagree with that Mexicans are more racist than Americans. They simply do not point it like we do.

Are you talking about Mexicans in living in Mexico? Or, are you talking about Mexicans in the States? Because, if you are talking about those in the States, you really need to come to Phoenix, or So. Cal - that is all they talk about is racist this, racist that -
