Today, the Mexican Government introduced its new chocolate bar, priced at less than $1USD. Made of 50% cocoa, powdered milk, vanilla. No refined sugar, no artificial flavourings. (files.catbox.moe)

This is just bigotry. Just because a shitty megacorp makes shitty products that doesn't mean good chocolate or coffee don't exist here. You sound like the type of person who bases their views entirely on stereotypes.

    Oh no bigotry!
    It's not about 1 shitty company. OC in a large country there will be some individuals who get good coffee or chocolate.
    But the vast majority consume garbage quality.
    And it's OK bcs they are tasteless peasants.
    Drown it in sugar, or better their beloved corn syrup and they'll happily swallow it by the buckets.
    My view is based on all US products I had the misfortune to taste.
    Besides stereotypes are often true.

    You should rather pity them. It's like Platon's Shadow Cave, they've been fed lies, their entire lives, the few of them that actually get out of the USA will know the difference.. The sad thing is that if you try to convince the ones that have never left the country, they will die rather than admit defeat.

    I have moved beyond pitying.
    Maybe in 1930 where some people could be misled bcs of lack of information and really believed they did some good by putting on a nazi uniform is somewhat understandable.
    These days everyone has internet and can find out anything if they want to.
    Despite the vast propaganda and media control in the US it is no longer an excuse.
    They are willfully ignorant.
    Even when they get confronted online with unpleasant facts they get back in their trenches as you mentioned.
    So no sympathy here, they can stay in their cave and rot.

    What a moron. You chosing to consume shitty products is not an excuse to be a racist bigot, and you choosing to believing does not make them true, that's why they're stereotypes. You're sound exactly like nazi saying that the stereotypes about jews are often true or a white supremacist saying the stereotypes about black people are often true or a homophobic religious zealot saying that the stereotypes about gays are often true. You saying it so, doesn't make it so, the only thing it does is demonstrate your appalling ignorance.

    LOL so butthurt.
    Calm TF down clown.

    "you choosing to believing does not make them true"

    Stereotypes are not 'choosing to believing' whatever TF you're trying to say.
    I said they are often true.
    Like the groteskly obese american stereotype, proven by any study.

    I can see from other comments who say you are transphobic and a zionist 🤮 that I shouldn't care about your opinion.
    So fuck off, bye nazionist
