MUNICH — In a bold declaration against colonial imperialism, U.S. Congresswoman Alexandro Ocasio-Cortez spoke out this week to condemn Spain for stealing Mexico's language.
According to AOC, Spain is a racist, dirty, white colonialist old power and should repatriate the Spanish language back to Mexico, where she said it originated.
"How dare you appropriate Mexico's native tongue?" AOC berated the Spanish prime minister, shaking her head in disbelief. "I can't believe you would stoop to such lows. How do you even steal an entire language? It's worse than Ocean's Eleven. What's going to be next? Stealing the recipe for Tex-Mex chicken enchiladas or copying Catholicism from Mexico and taking it to Europe? Check your privilege, bigot."
The New York congresswoman further castigated Spain for plagiarizing the idea of cool horsemen with ponchos and guitars from Mexico back in the 16th century.
"Everyone forgets about these historical travesties, but not me," AOC said. "I won't stay quiet any longer and watch as Spain continues to get off the hook for the atrocious thefts of the early modern period. Who came up with caballeros in the first place, anyway? I know it was Mexico, since I've heard ABBA's 'Fernando' just as much as anyone. Plus, the word 'caballero' is Spanish, which is Mexican."
At publishing time, AOC had called upon world leaders to support her efforts by renaming the language "Mexicanian."
Protect yourself from the modern day gestapo!
