One thing you notice about online content from Latin America is that they love to roast each other for not being white Argentine content does this a lot But you also see similar videos or memes put out from Mexicans, Peruvians or Bolivians in this case "Haha Peruvians ain't as white as us Bolivians" Anyone who has been to Bolivia knows that's not true lol But this type of humor really aligns well with how the locals treat each other in real life based on skin color And also how Latin American humor can be less PC

When living in Latin America, you'll notice how "love tourism" is more out in the open The women and the men It sucks it happens Though one thing people say that I disagree with is that it is caused only by poverty Poverty isn't the main driver. Culture is IMO. Cartagena 🇨🇴 thrives on it while poor conservative Cusco 🇵🇪 has way less, despite heavy normal tourism. Thailand (relatively low poverty) is the love capital; conservative Iraq/Afghanistan resisted it. I'm not endorsing the activity. Just commenting on what I think is the bigger influence in Latin America and around the world Culture > Economics

"Why is Colombian food abroad only from Medellin" You notice this about Colombia's representation internationally Similar to when gringos think of Colombian women and they only think of paisa women with that "mi amooooor" accent Or how Colombia's crime situation is represented mostly by Pablo Escobar and Medellin Cartel Medellin is the Face of Colombia abroad 🇨🇴
