Comment on comments

31 July 2010

One  Mex Files post is getting an unusual number of hits  based on a link in an anti-semitic and racist (as in the guy also linked to Aryan Nations material) post on a commercial public website.

I changed the comments settings to require approval from any new commentators and to flag some “key” words that might be used in normal discussions.  Since the post in question was about the role of the Conversos in colonial New Spain, many of the commentators are not regulars, but are interested in genealogy, or other legitimate interests that bring them here.   My apologies if it takes a while for your comment to appear.  If you’re one of the idiots who reads racist garbage and looking for confirmation of your moronic beliefs, there’s enough stupidity already in this world and you don’t need to add any more.

While I hope those that read through these posts learn something about Mexican history and culture, and welcome comments (even misguided ones), it’s my website, and I’m free to censure, censor and/or ridicule  as I see fit.

    This xenophobe is a familiar head case to many like myself who see his tired ass anti anything Mexican or Chicano on various websites, especially in the LA Calif area. His usual MO is to claim she/he is a Mexican him/herself and lives or experienced whatever the topic of the post is. Then one usually witness’s a backhand slap in the face or some ugly slanted testimony aimed at anything Mexican or Chicano. This troll is an sick individual who’s ultimate aim is to cause havoc and create an ugly reactions from other commentors that continue back and forth ad naseum until the shotcaller at the blog will stop all comments and shut down opinion from the commentors. It’s an old right wing Nazi tactic that is still used by fascist reactionaries to some degree of success.
    Don’t fall for it, just suggest the troll take a menudo enema and reread Mein Kampf. This suggestion for some reason will send him/ her into a rabid frothing rage that will be immediately apparent.
    Then just ignore the fool.

Leave a reply, but please stick to the topic
