Zapata was the only good guy. Pancho Villa was a serial rapist with no other accomplishments aside from murdering a few innocent American settlers. Which is of course why moronic cholo Chicanos worship him instead.
Literally nobody likes the Federales kek, but it doesn't matter because the power base formed after the Revolution was much worse than the Porfiriato ever was.
>Pancho Villa? I just don't like 'im is all.
My great grandpa fought in a revolt against this dude in the 20s. Also:
>be me in senior hs history class
>learning about the Mexican revolution
>class is full of beaners
>Zapata mentioned
>literally who.jpg
>Villa mentioned
>Every beaner in class is jumping up and down claiming to be a descendant via their great grandmother's
>I open up and mention his various bands of rebels who went unchecked and given every liberty to rape and plunder by Villa himself
>every moron in class gives me a death stare for calling Villa what he really was
>after inadvertently admitting to being a rapebaby spawned from his raids
Based Zapata
A bunch of Mexicans I went to school with loved Zapata and would wear airbrushed shirts with him on it. I think it depends what state you’re from. Like if Americans wore Sherman and Stonewall Jackson shirts.
Beaners are dumb. I used to think those iq charts are fake. But the more I interact with beaners and blacks, the more I think they really are dumb as hell. No wonder they create shitholes wherever they live.
I'm Mexican, I ain't dumb
Even if that was true, so what? Are you every Mexican? Just stop dude, you're making yourself look dumber than you probably are.
my grandfathers grandfather almost got shot by pancho villa for being a drunkard and my grandfathers other grandfather was in the revolution fighting for pancho villa

We all know the REAL best option was restoration of the crown but it will never happen for some reason. Mexico only works when ruled by white people with an iron, oh bring back the monarchy PLEASE

How did the Revolution go from desposing Diaz to suddenly having an all out war with Cristeros
Trying to do land reform with the church responding by attacking with hordes of brainwashed terrorists
Why is land reform always a big deal during revolutions? Bc it's unequal owned? A small group own most of it? That's like taking factories from toyota bc they have too much and handing it over to other companies bc too many factories are in the hands of a few corporations. No wonder they lost.
>Why is land reform always a big deal during revolutions?
Because revolutions usually happen in backwards, agrarian countries where ~80% of the economy is agriculture, so "follow me and I will give you [your landlord's/Church-owned/gringo-owned] land" is a good draw.
The opposite is true. Revolution happens in urban areas and they drag the rural places into it. Land reform is about breaking down the peaceful countryside and creating conflict where there is none and also giving tracts of land to the street rat sympathizers from the cities who helped overthrow the previous regime. The Vendee in France, the high amount of loyalists in the agrarian American South, and the Soviet persecution of Kulaks all follow this pattern. Which makes the Zapatista movement a bit of an odd duck but it had within it for the reasons that it was a purely localized phenomenon and hyper focused on achieving local goals and Zapata’s participation at large was always limited and colored by this fact. In a lot of ways they were a Revolution within a Revolution and depending on one’s philosophical bent you could argue he was either the most revolutionary or least revolutionary leader at the time.
Dunno what that means m8
Mexico had haciendas which was like "you will own nothing and be happy," like a couple thousand people living in the equivalent of a company store in which they were in debt to for life, which also had their own private police or military force which would come grab you if you didn't pay up. It was highly exploitative and eventually exploded.
>settlers
>innocent
Filibustering was basically over by the time of the Revolucion and the border was settled once the last of the Apache were thrown onto reservations. Villa had nothing to gain from raiding American border towns.
it was 4d chess, albeit by a lunatic. he just wanted carranza to look bad any way possible, and being invaded by the US is a great way to make the mexican president look bad
Madero was too dumb to live
The mexican revolution literally accomplished nothing. Zero. Zip. Nada. Mexico is a worthless country and people to be honest with you anons. Those goblins are just a drug and crime factory.
Based. They make great food too. Good coke, good pot, good tacos, cold beer, pure kino. Being anti Mexico is like being anti fun.
You're an idiot. mexico is a poison selling terrorist state. They make SHIT beer, laced drugs and short fat ugly people. Frick off beaner. Mexican beer is trash man, just like their stock and culture.
If you wanted to out yourself as homosexual you could have made your post shorter than this.
>he’s never enjoyed a modelo negra and a plate of warm birria tacos
It's an interesting place to live, I love it, I hate it, I think it feels like residing in a kafka novel.
Food's good though.

Part of the problem of the war was mexico was quickly developing with tons of factories and rail being built. Yet the war destroyed all of that and sent the country backwards by 40 years. Something they still havnt recovered from.
Carranza, Obregon, and his siccesors and I'm tired of pretending anything else would have been better.
Zapata's ideas are all nice on paper but agrarianist folkish masturbation was already becoming dated by the 1920s and I doubt whatever the frick passes for the government after Zapata would have enough brain to course correct instead of stagnate and trying to fix all problems by doubling down,
This guy was EL BASADO, the rest were a bunch of liberals and socialists who didn't deserve the air they were breathing.
He was ahead of his time I'll give you that.
zapata was the clear good guy, carranza was clearly not reading the room, villa went nuts after his army started losing, obregon and de la huerta were the compromising centrists who finally stopped the bloodshed by not completely lying about land reform and making deals with the revolutionaries
>Be the only non-moronic Mexican leader during the revolution
>Also be the best politician, statesmen, and general
>Absolutely and effortlessly destroy Pancho Villa, something even the Americans weren't able to do, in the most one-sided battle of the war and earn the sobriquet 'Peacemaker'
>Actually start running the country efficiently as president and put forward labor-friendly reforms that address the issues that started the war in the first place
>Get assassinated despite deserving it the least out of every major figure of the revolution
>Be forgotten by Mexicans because you weren't a "iconic" based moron like all the other beaners involved
Mexico gets what it fricking deserves.
> who were the good guys
