Why do Mexicans and Central Americans assimilate so poorly?

Because they don’t need to.

Why would they? We give them all kinds of shite, health insurance, don’t make them pay for having babies, etc.

Most frustrating is the educated ones, particularly from Venezuela that live in Houston. You’re a petro engineer living in a $550k house here, yet talk about chavez and maduro being for the people. Tards.

Hey, he's an idiot, but that's out of line.

I think the vast majority assimilate better than you think.

We have very different experiences with Mexicans and central Americans. The hard working ones I know fight to learn English quick as they can and do everything they can to blend into the land of their dreams

I have a client in one of my clinics I've needed to translate for for only about 2 months cause in that time she taught herself enough English to communicate w her sons therapists. I don't know many Americans who can learn another language functionally that quick

I know 2 Mexicans here legally. Thet both speak very understandable English and 1 is working 2 jobs. Got zero issues with people like that.

They love their country. You figure the rest out…

Perfectly normal. When you have slow immigration they assimilate. When you have rapid immigration they congregate in neighborhoods and cities with their own markets , customs, behaviors, language, etc...

Every country that has experienced immigration has the same problems. They come with their own values and have no reason to change.

France, Germany, UK, Netherlands, etc... ALL have huge areas where Muslims are doing their own thing including a judicial system of some type. The U.S. has large areas where Mexicans generally do their own thing. More recently Muslims. Most big cities have some form of Chinatown.

When millions come in rapidly there is no need to assimilate. No need at all.

That bonfire tragedy was so joyful for you people.

For the most part, in my experience, by second or third generation, Mexicans are fully assimilated.

Agreed, my ancestors were all still proud of where they came from, a generation later it was just heritage, generation after that it was just ancestry. It's the way with Irish, Italian, and Mexican, no different, all Catholic in culture.

Now, why have black Americans de-assimilated? I think that’s more tragic than the Mexicans. 1960s democrats policies???

That's the million dollar question...

Don’t have a lot of knowledge of South Americans. Really just speaking about the Mexican American families I’ve known my whole life.

Those I've known are similar to the rest of your poor immigrants. They might never fit in, but their kids will. English is hard, they try, they work hard, yea some are bitchy aholes, but that's just normal, yea there are criminals, but lets not forget the Italian and Irish mafias.

Muslim Somalians never will though, they try very hard to not fit in.

Imo this isn't true at all. Silver lining to have mostly Christian Mexicans invading us and not African Muslims.

Need to stop it and hopefully deport many of the men who have come the last 4 years. If we deport men only we can get away with it imo
