I didn't quite get this article you sent the link to.

"For the past twenty days, Mexico has been living in a state of social unrest: Trump’s election stirred our spirit," it says.

But from the moment he announced a year and a half ago, Trump provoked a very sharp reaction. Just look at the sdozens of canciones and corridos on youtube about him. Even pitiyanqui sugarwater salesman Vicente Fox was moved to say, "We're not going to pay for your fucking wall."

México has been in a "state of social unrest" since, well, forever and certainly since Calderón sent the army to wage --and lose-- the war on drugs.

But there was a qualitative change with Ayotzinapa, it just tore the country's heart out. I heard it on the radio show I co-host every day, and we're all the way in Atlanta.

Brozo, in his last show last June, went over what they'd been covering for six years and listen to the part about ayotzinapa It starts a little before so you get the context):

So this article seems sort of detached from that whole context.
