Kat watches Fox News for a living, 7 00:00:22,360 --> 00:00:26,119 Speaker 1: so occasionally needs to do something else. 8 00:00:26,160 --> 00:00:29,360 Speaker 2: As my theory, yes, I love doing things that aren't 9 00:00:29,440 --> 00:00:32,960 Speaker 2: that steph my personal time and things that aren't my job. 10 00:00:33,200 --> 00:00:33,600 Speaker 2: It's great. 11 00:00:33,680 --> 00:00:38,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, you can go watch Kat talk about Fox News 12 00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:40,200 Speaker 1: and then you don't have to watch Fox News, which 13 00:00:40,240 --> 00:00:41,639 Speaker 1: is a nice advantage to. 14 00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:43,960 Speaker 2: All of it. I recommend to everyone to not watch it. 15 00:00:45,040 --> 00:00:48,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, there was. When I was a kid, there's 16 00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:51,200 Speaker 1: all these like Simpsons jokes where they make fun of Fox, 17 00:00:51,360 --> 00:00:53,280 Speaker 1: and I never got it because I didn't watch anything 18 00:00:53,320 --> 00:00:57,120 Speaker 1: else on Fox besides Simpsons. And then, like now, retroactively, 19 00:00:57,160 --> 00:00:59,160 Speaker 1: all of the jokes making fun of their network make 20 00:00:59,200 --> 00:00:59,920 Speaker 1: a lot more sense. 21 00:01:00,720 --> 00:01:02,880 Speaker 2: They're evergreen too, that's true. 22 00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:08,080 Speaker 1: I'm afraid to rewatch old Simpsons. Actually I haven't, and 23 00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:09,920 Speaker 1: I don't know what will happen if I. 24 00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:12,800 Speaker 2: I've never seen an episode of the Simpsons. 25 00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:16,640 Speaker 3: Brave honestly, honestly, of the programs on Fox. That that 26 00:01:16,800 --> 00:01:21,000 Speaker 3: is the route that you went on Brave never seen 27 00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:21,800 Speaker 3: an episode? 28 00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:27,360 Speaker 1: Well, the other voice you're hearing is Sophie. I Sophie's 29 00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:28,440 Speaker 1: a producer. 30 00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:29,920 Speaker 3: In a way, I feel like you have seen an 31 00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:31,000 Speaker 3: episode of The Simpsons. 32 00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:35,040 Speaker 2: Oh everyone has seen an episode together?

That was the joke I 49 00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:18,600 Speaker 1: wrote into the script. I kind of haven't. 50 00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:21,280 Speaker 2: A pop great joke. 51 00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:25,640 Speaker 1: Thanks. Instead, I want to talk about a Mexican revolutionary's 52 00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:28,440 Speaker 1: been dead for one hundred and one years. 53 00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:32,920 Speaker 3: Oh hell yes, I enjoyed that. I enjoyed that like 54 00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:34,880 Speaker 3: so much. Thank you for doing that transition. 55 00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:37,919 Speaker 1: Yeah, I wrote that joke. And as we were talking 56 00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:41,480 Speaker 1: about things beforehand, because Ariana Grande came up. Have you 57 00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:44,320 Speaker 1: ever heard of a man named Ricardo Flores Macgone, I 58 00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:49,440 Speaker 1: have not, excellent, I'm excited to tell you about this man. Today. 59 00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:51,800 Speaker 1: We are talking about a man who was convinced that 60 00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:55,480 Speaker 1: the people of Mexico could indeed overthrow their dictator. So 61 00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:59,120 Speaker 1: he spent every hour of his life chainsmoking over a 62 00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:03,320 Speaker 1: typewriter until he convinced everyone else that they could overthrow 63 00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:07,040 Speaker 1: the dictator. And then they did so it worked. 64 00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:08,400 Speaker 2: Its amazing. 65 00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:12,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, he's really fucking interesting. It didn't go the way 66 00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:15,359 Speaker 1: he wanted it to, and I doubt that he would 67 00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:17,359 Speaker 1: be very happy that a lot of his words ended 68 00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:22,519 Speaker 1: up word for word or rapidly paraphrased in the Mexican Constitution, 69 00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:26,359 Speaker 1: because he had an incredible amount of influence on the 70 00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:30,960 Speaker 1: Mexican Republic after the revolution, which is interesting because he 71 00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:34,520 Speaker 1: was part of a thousand strong anarchist movement called the Maganestas, 72 00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:37,840 Speaker 1: and he hated that they were called that. And this 73 00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:41,320 Speaker 1: story will start where every story in the Western Hemisphere starts, 74 00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:48,880 Speaker 1: which is Europeans showing up and fucking over everyone. In 75 00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:53,120 Speaker 1: this case, it was Fernando Cortez in fifteen eleven who 76 00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:55,720 Speaker 1: showed up in what's now Mexico and he was like, 77 00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:59,400 Speaker 1: this is Spain. Motherfuckers, get in line and or die. 78 00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:02,920 Speaker 1: So he did that. That was bad. That lasted a 79 00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:06,960 Speaker 1: few hundred years. It was called New Spain, and then 80 00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:09,760 Speaker 1: eventually people were like, all right, fuck this, and they 81 00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:14,320 Speaker 1: wanted to have some independence. I really like doing all 82 00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:17,520 Speaker 1: the crazy background context. Mcgon isn't even alive during anything 83 00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:18,960 Speaker 1: that I'm going to be talking about for the next 84 00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:22,320 Speaker 1: little bit. So, like a lot of revolutions, the Mexican 85 00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:24,440 Speaker 1: War for Independence started off with people doing a bunch 86 00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:27,160 Speaker 1: of rad stuff, and then, like a lot of revolutions, 87 00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:30,040 Speaker 1: it was co opted by boring and or bad people. 88 00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:35,200 Speaker 1: So in the early eighteen hundreds, there's Enlightenment ideas going 89 00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:38,280 Speaker 1: around Mexico and these are referred to there as liberal ideas, 90 00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:42,760 Speaker 1: and they're coming creeping over to the colonies. So there's 91 00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:45,320 Speaker 1: a liberal book club and in it is a Catholic priest. 92 00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:49,360 Speaker 1: His name is Miguel Hidalgo. Like all the best book clubs. 93 00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:51,920 Speaker 1: This one went from reading books to plotting the overthrow 94 00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:57,919 Speaker 1: of colonial government. And Miguel Hidalgo wanted good things, but 95 00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:02,520 Speaker 1: in the least radical way that one could want good things. Right, 96 00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:06,479 Speaker 1: he called for a quote gentle and gradual means to 97 00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:11,320 Speaker 1: abolish the quote horrible right of territorial property, perpetual, hereditary, 98 00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:13,840 Speaker 1: and exclusive. Basically, he was like, we need to get 99 00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:17,120 Speaker 1: rid of the fucking hereditary land ownership where some people 100 00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:22,240 Speaker 1: own everything and everyone else's fucked right, which is increasingly 101 00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:26,440 Speaker 1: what we're coming back to. It's really fun. There's still time, 102 00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:28,480 Speaker 1: I think, to get rid of the hereditary upper class. 103 00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:32,479 Speaker 1: But it's been two hundred years since id the all go. Unfortunately, 104 00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:36,480 Speaker 1: a bunch of his friends get arrested for plotting revolution. 105 00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:39,280 Speaker 1: So he shows up to the church, he rings the bell, 106 00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:41,520 Speaker 1: he calls everyone out to him to give a speech. 107 00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:47,080 Speaker 1: And this speech, have you heard much about the Mexican 108 00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:50,200 Speaker 1: You get the Mexican Warfare, independence, and one hundred years later, 109 00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:53,240 Speaker 1: the Mexican Revolution. I hadn't known too much about it 110 00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:53,760 Speaker 1: with how I. 111 00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:56,120 Speaker 2: Grew up, but everything that I knew is I grew 112 00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:58,720 Speaker 2: up in Dallas, Texas, and you take like a Texas 113 00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:00,640 Speaker 2: history class, and so I know a lot like Santa 114 00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:08,720 Speaker 2: Ana and general you know, Texan being mad at Mexico history. 115 00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:12,159 Speaker 1: But that's fine, okay. Mcgon spent a lot of his 116 00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:15,839 Speaker 1: life in Texas and mostly San Antonio. 117 00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:17,800 Speaker 2: San Antonio is nice. 118 00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:20,800 Speaker 1: It is nice. I had a good time there. I 119 00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:24,800 Speaker 1: once tried to sleep in my van outside a convention, 120 00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:27,240 Speaker 1: but there were too many cops, so I went and 121 00:06:27,279 --> 00:06:31,240 Speaker 1: slept in a closet in the con suite. That's my 122 00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:33,599 Speaker 1: story about San Antonio. That's the main story I have 123 00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:34,640 Speaker 1: about San Antonio. 124 00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:35,880 Speaker 2: It's gone lovely. 125 00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:39,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, it was nice, nice closet. So there's going to 126 00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:41,400 Speaker 1: be this Mexican war for independence, and so he goes 127 00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:43,920 Speaker 1: and he this this Catholic priest, and he goes and 128 00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:46,560 Speaker 1: he gives what's remembered as El Grito de Dolores, the 129 00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:51,640 Speaker 1: Cry of Dolores, And no one actually knows what he says, right, 130 00:06:51,839 --> 00:06:54,000 Speaker 1: but it's repeated like every year, and so they have 131 00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:56,800 Speaker 1: a version of what he said that someone later wrote down, 132 00:06:57,120 --> 00:06:59,280 Speaker 1: and it goes something like, will you free yourselves? We 133 00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:01,880 Speaker 1: recover the land and stolen three hundred years ago from 134 00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:05,760 Speaker 1: your forefathers by the hated Spaniards, and he's religious, so 135 00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:08,280 Speaker 1: he says, long live our Lady of Guadalupe, Death to 136 00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:12,280 Speaker 1: bad government, death to the goshupenas gosh penis being a 137 00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:16,280 Speaker 1: slur for the nobility the peninsulares the people who were 138 00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:21,040 Speaker 1: born in Spain, because New Spain had this super elaborate 139 00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:25,520 Speaker 1: racial and ethnic hierarchy that put born in Spain folks 140 00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:30,960 Speaker 1: the pensil Peninsularis at the top, then their white descendants, 141 00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:33,920 Speaker 1: then the mixed folks way below them, then way down 142 00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:37,440 Speaker 1: at the bottom indigenous folks and black folks and everything 143 00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:40,280 Speaker 1: in like the legal system in New Spain was built 144 00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:47,200 Speaker 1: out of this racial hierarchy. So this priest is like, hey, 145 00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:49,640 Speaker 1: we don't like that. He's kind of saying we just 146 00:07:49,680 --> 00:07:51,400 Speaker 1: do not like the top layer of it. He's not 147 00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:54,440 Speaker 1: saying like we should totally abolish it, which makes sense 148 00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:59,800 Speaker 1: because he's the next level down himself. Just think, is 149 00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:01,640 Speaker 1: what's that soften? 150 00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:02,240 Speaker 2: How it goes? 151 00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:06,920 Speaker 1: Yeah? Yeah, exactly, And this guy was his whole thing 152 00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:08,680 Speaker 1: isn't as like pure and great as it could be. 153 00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:13,000 Speaker 1: It wasn't just like let's be free, fuck colonization. It 154 00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:15,040 Speaker 1: tied into some stuff that goes way over my head 155 00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:17,760 Speaker 1: about the king had just been overthrown by Napoleon, and 156 00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:21,240 Speaker 1: it was also about defending the Catholic faith and all 157 00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:24,920 Speaker 1: this stuff. But overall, I give it like a B 158 00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:27,280 Speaker 1: minus because it's better than anything I've ever done. I 159 00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:30,920 Speaker 1: want to like be the cast the first stone, but 160 00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:35,920 Speaker 1: I've never overthrown a government. I don't know about you. 161 00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:37,240 Speaker 1: You shouldn't tell me if you have. 162 00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:40,040 Speaker 3: But just there's still time. 163 00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:43,160 Speaker 2: There's still time, baby steps. 164 00:08:42,880 --> 00:08:45,040 Speaker 1: That's true, that's true. I forgot to write down how 165 00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:46,719 Speaker 1: old this guy was when he overthrew me. 166 00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:48,720 Speaker 2: I was about to ask, because if he was like sixty, 167 00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:49,680 Speaker 2: that plenty of time. 168 00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:54,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, thanks, at least five years. He gives this speech, 169 00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:58,120 Speaker 1: and the revolution is on, and they all go march 170 00:08:58,160 --> 00:09:01,560 Speaker 1: around and take over towns. Importantly, indigenous folks show up 171 00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:03,959 Speaker 1: in large numbers and are like, yeah, all right, we'll 172 00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:05,920 Speaker 1: give this a shot. It seems like the best thing going. 173 00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:08,920 Speaker 1: And so they're all marching around into this priest general 174 00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:11,760 Speaker 1: and there's storming places with like fucking literal sticks and 175 00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:14,280 Speaker 1: stones and winning. There's like all of these description of 176 00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:17,920 Speaker 1: battles where they'll win by like ambushing people very carefully 177 00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:20,160 Speaker 1: or just sometimes just like charging in and having a 178 00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:24,400 Speaker 1: fuck ton of people, you know, his followers liberated property 179 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:28,160 Speaker 1: held by the white Spaniards. This is a recurring theme 180 00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:31,160 Speaker 1: throughout this week's episode, is that a small class of 181 00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:37,439 Speaker 1: people owns like all the goddamn land, and he promises anyone, 182 00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:40,760 Speaker 1: He promises that anyone who doesn't immediately free their slaves 183 00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:44,360 Speaker 1: is going to get fucking killed, which is cool. He 184 00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:47,120 Speaker 1: also says that Jews don't have to convert to Christianity, 185 00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:51,120 Speaker 1: which is cool. He also probably and this might have 186 00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:53,800 Speaker 1: been slander used against him by the Inquisition later, but 187 00:09:53,840 --> 00:09:56,040 Speaker 1: I want it to be true. He also probably was 188 00:09:56,040 --> 00:09:58,880 Speaker 1: telling everyone that there's no such thing as hell, which 189 00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:04,120 Speaker 1: is like really fucking based for mister Catholic priest. He's 190 00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:08,360 Speaker 1: also producing illegitimate children, which of course Catholic priests aren't 191 00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:11,080 Speaker 1: supposed to do. But he's having a good time. He's 192 00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:14,680 Speaker 1: fucking he's having a revolution. He's freeing people at gunpoint, 193 00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:18,240 Speaker 1: are freeing. The gunpoint is not at the people, it's 194 00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:21,120 Speaker 1: at the owners of the distensible owners of the people. 195 00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:29,000 Speaker 1: And he gets excommunicated. This is not particularly surprising, right, No, 196 00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:31,280 Speaker 1: But I don't know if you knew this no. 197 00:10:30,800 --> 00:10:33,760 Speaker 3: No, I was just saying no, based on that list, 198 00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:37,280 Speaker 3: I'm gonna say, those are a few rules that are 199 00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:40,040 Speaker 3: not meant to be broken. 200 00:10:40,760 --> 00:10:43,280 Speaker 2: I feel like the illegitimate children one flies okay with 201 00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:47,199 Speaker 2: the Catholic Church. But yeah, past that, you know, that's 202 00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:48,040 Speaker 2: a lot of stuff. 203 00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:50,560 Speaker 1: Yeah that I think that wasn't on the list of 204 00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:54,800 Speaker 1: what he got ex communicated. I think it was pays 205 00:10:54,840 --> 00:11:00,880 Speaker 1: off again. Yeah, but he gets excommunicated, you know, for 206 00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:03,440 Speaker 1: all the heresy or whatever. But did you know that 207 00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:06,920 Speaker 1: in God and with one hundred thousand arm peasants, all 208 00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:10,920 Speaker 1: things are possible. He finds a bishop and he forces 209 00:11:10,920 --> 00:11:14,240 Speaker 1: the bishop basically a gunpoint, to rescind his excommunication. And 210 00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:16,599 Speaker 1: now he's back in that church. Is good graces. 211 00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:17,880 Speaker 2: Oh my god, I love this too. 212 00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:21,439 Speaker 1: It's awesome. Yeah, at least for a while. So they 213 00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:23,440 Speaker 1: march in and they get to Mexico City, and then 214 00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:27,160 Speaker 1: they turn away. And now, depending on which book you read, 215 00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:29,640 Speaker 1: no one agrees as to why he turned away from 216 00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:33,320 Speaker 1: Mexico City. People like to argue about it. Maybe the 217 00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:36,680 Speaker 1: priest was like, everyone keeps rioting and looting and killing prisoners, 218 00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:38,280 Speaker 1: and we shouldn't do that to a whole last city. 219 00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:41,880 Speaker 1: But that one, that take seems to come a little 220 00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:45,320 Speaker 1: bit more from the kind of like good white priest, 221 00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:50,160 Speaker 1: scary indigenous people making up the army kind of thing. 222 00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:53,640 Speaker 1: The other take that I'm lean a little bit more 223 00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:56,360 Speaker 1: towards was he was like, oh, we have sticks and 224 00:11:56,440 --> 00:12:00,720 Speaker 1: they have guns. He turns away. Some people think that 225 00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:02,880 Speaker 1: his turning his back is why the war took so long. 226 00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:05,040 Speaker 1: It's also completely possible it's the only reason it was 227 00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:08,120 Speaker 1: ever possible to win it, you know, because everyone wasn't 228 00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:11,640 Speaker 1: just slaughtered right there. His army goes and holes up 229 00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:18,400 Speaker 1: in Guadalajara and like they you know, show up and 230 00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:20,640 Speaker 1: are attacking him and shit, and he gets often a pardon. 231 00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:22,920 Speaker 1: He gets offered a pardon in exchange for surrender, and 232 00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:25,199 Speaker 1: he's like, if fuck off, I'm not gonna do that. 233 00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:27,640 Speaker 1: Like I've come this far, he is not backing down. 234 00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:31,480 Speaker 1: People refusing pardons and pensions and all kinds of awards 235 00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:33,920 Speaker 1: from the government will come up a lot this week. 236 00:12:36,360 --> 00:12:39,000 Speaker 1: So he gets captured. It doesn't go well for him. 237 00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:43,520 Speaker 1: Within a couple months, he is defrocked, excommunicated by the inquisition. 238 00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:46,559 Speaker 1: This time just again a step up. If you have 239 00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:50,280 Speaker 1: to get the whole ass inquisition to kick you out. 240 00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:54,880 Speaker 1: They decide to extra deepeat priest him, so they flay 241 00:12:54,920 --> 00:12:57,000 Speaker 1: his hands and this has something to do with like 242 00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:01,320 Speaker 1: some symbolic mark left on your hands when you become 243 00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:03,840 Speaker 1: a priest, at least at this time and place. And 244 00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:09,040 Speaker 1: then he's executed July twenty seventh, eighteen eleven, which is 245 00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:13,360 Speaker 1: not a really good day for him, except I don't know, 246 00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:15,400 Speaker 1: he's like Catholic and he gets martyred, right. 247 00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:18,040 Speaker 3: Really back by not a good day for him. 248 00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:21,360 Speaker 2: I think it sounds like fun. It sounds like the 249 00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:22,800 Speaker 2: best day ever I know. 250 00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:25,520 Speaker 1: Well, I mean like this might have been the best 251 00:13:25,559 --> 00:13:28,280 Speaker 1: day of his life. He's a Catholic and he gets martyred. 252 00:13:29,160 --> 00:13:32,480 Speaker 1: The Catholic Church rarely considers people they kill to be martyrs, 253 00:13:33,920 --> 00:13:35,080 Speaker 1: but Jonah. 254 00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:35,600 Speaker 2: And he's considered a martyr. 255 00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:38,040 Speaker 1: Now I don't know if he's considered a martyr by 256 00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:43,600 Speaker 1: the Catholic Church, he's absolutely a martyr in like Mexican history, right, yeah, 257 00:13:43,679 --> 00:13:47,160 Speaker 1: I'm not sure, but yeah. And his last words are, 258 00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:51,120 Speaker 1: though I may die, I shall be remembered forever, you 259 00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:54,839 Speaker 1: all will soon be forgotten, which is just fucking true. 260 00:13:56,880 --> 00:13:59,640 Speaker 1: This man I guess still exists. We talk about him. 261 00:13:59,679 --> 00:14:02,600 Speaker 1: I didn't down the name of the guy who killed him. 262 00:14:02,760 --> 00:14:05,120 Speaker 2: Hell yeah, we're talking about him in twenty twenty three. 263 00:14:05,559 --> 00:14:08,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, his head was put on a pike and left 264 00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:12,480 Speaker 1: on display. And I want to compare really quick. He 265 00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:17,240 Speaker 1: gets called Mexico's Father of the nation, right, and he 266 00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:19,320 Speaker 1: was a priest who carried a lance and freed the 267 00:14:19,320 --> 00:14:22,880 Speaker 1: slaves at gunpoint. The US is father of the nation. 268 00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:26,520 Speaker 1: Is George Washington, who literally wore teeth he had ripped 269 00:14:26,520 --> 00:14:28,240 Speaker 1: out of the mouths of living slaves. 270 00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:34,920 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, it's not great, no, no. 271 00:14:35,400 --> 00:14:41,520 Speaker 3: And and spun a lie that most people believe that 272 00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:42,800 Speaker 3: he had wooden teeth. 273 00:14:43,720 --> 00:14:49,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, totally.

There's thirty five years of chaos basically, 435 00:23:28,600 --> 00:23:31,439 Speaker 1: with various emperors and tyrants and occasionally some like republic 436 00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:34,919 Speaker 1: people sneak in. Most are corrupt as shit. They get 437 00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:38,280 Speaker 1: rich selling off the nation's natural resources to foreigners. You 438 00:23:38,320 --> 00:23:40,280 Speaker 1: get this one cool moment where an old rebel leader 439 00:23:40,280 --> 00:23:44,840 Speaker 1: abolishes slavery along the way the US invades and steals 440 00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:48,040 Speaker 1: half the country eighteen forty six, eighteen forty seven. This 441 00:23:48,119 --> 00:23:49,520 Speaker 1: is like always one of my I mean, I know 442 00:23:49,560 --> 00:23:51,320 Speaker 1: it's sort of a cliche, but the like the border 443 00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:55,679 Speaker 1: crossed US thing is just very very literally true. You know, 444 00:23:55,840 --> 00:23:58,600 Speaker 1: a huge chunk of well all of Texas and all 445 00:23:58,640 --> 00:24:02,119 Speaker 1: of the Southwest was part of Mexico and before that, 446 00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:06,520 Speaker 1: obviously Mexico's also stolen land. But you know, and the 447 00:24:06,600 --> 00:24:08,640 Speaker 1: reason that they US came and stole all this land 448 00:24:08,800 --> 00:24:11,080 Speaker 1: was pretty much to expand the slave state. 449 00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:11,680 Speaker 2: Right. 450 00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:16,040 Speaker 1: They weren't allowed above a certain line. I didn't write 451 00:24:16,040 --> 00:24:17,600 Speaker 1: this into the script. You weren't allowed to have a 452 00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:19,600 Speaker 1: slave state above a certain line in the US. And 453 00:24:19,640 --> 00:24:21,760 Speaker 1: so they were like, all right, we'll take all this shit. 454 00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:25,040 Speaker 1: But they didn't take really far south. I didn't know 455 00:24:25,080 --> 00:24:27,960 Speaker 1: this part. The reason they didn't take all really far south. 456 00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:29,639 Speaker 1: I like read all these quotes from them, is that 457 00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:31,400 Speaker 1: they were like, well, we want land, but we don't 458 00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:35,280 Speaker 1: want free black people and Mexican people in the United States. 459 00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:37,120 Speaker 1: That sounds terrible to. 460 00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:39,520 Speaker 2: These races so American, Oh my god. 461 00:24:39,720 --> 00:24:43,520 Speaker 1: It really is. We're like, we could conquer all of Mexico, 462 00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:47,080 Speaker 1: but I don't know, we're just too racist for it. 463 00:24:49,960 --> 00:24:53,840 Speaker 1: So your personal hero Santa Ana was in charge in 464 00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:58,000 Speaker 1: the eighteen fifties for a while. I know fucking nothing 465 00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:00,679 Speaker 1: about Santana. Like literally, this is the old mention of 466 00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:04,920 Speaker 1: him in my script, is that the revolutionaries don't like him. 467 00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:09,720 Speaker 2: Fun fact there is I'm not sure if you've seen 468 00:25:09,720 --> 00:25:11,560 Speaker 2: the King of the Hill episode, but I can't remember 469 00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:14,320 Speaker 2: which state as it. They had like something from Santa Anna, 470 00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:16,560 Speaker 2: like a part of his body or something, and Texas 471 00:25:16,600 --> 00:25:19,440 Speaker 2: keeps asking for it back and they won't give it back. 472 00:25:20,520 --> 00:25:22,000 Speaker 2: There's a whole King of the Hill episode about it, 473 00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:23,920 Speaker 2: and we talked about it in fourth grade Texas history, 474 00:25:23,920 --> 00:25:26,080 Speaker 2: but I can't remember it for the life of me. Obviously, 475 00:25:26,119 --> 00:25:29,320 Speaker 2: I care very much my personal hero. He also wore 476 00:25:29,320 --> 00:25:31,040 Speaker 2: a lot of red and all the paintings. So, okay, 477 00:25:31,080 --> 00:25:32,600 Speaker 2: there's your Santa Anna briefer. 478 00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:36,280 Speaker 1: And you saw the shirts that say his bones belong 479 00:25:36,359 --> 00:25:37,080 Speaker 1: in Texas. 480 00:25:37,920 --> 00:25:45,600 Speaker 4: Yes, exactly inside Texas. Yes, so ass on the bones. 481 00:25:50,040 --> 00:25:52,080 Speaker 4: The main leader of this new batch of eighteen fifties 482 00:25:52,119 --> 00:25:55,600 Speaker 4: revolutionaries is a guy named Benito Juarez who's an indigenous 483 00:25:55,640 --> 00:25:58,400 Speaker 4: guy who found himself an orphan young so he walked 484 00:25:58,400 --> 00:26:00,280 Speaker 4: to the big city. I think this is Ohaka City 485 00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:02,320 Speaker 4: and he became a lawyer for the downtrodden. He was 486 00:26:02,320 --> 00:26:05,119 Speaker 4: the first indigenous lawyer in Mexico. So he starts off 487 00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:07,920 Speaker 4: great and he ends up middling in terms of his 488 00:26:08,359 --> 00:26:12,320 Speaker 4: legacy and stuff, right, but he genuinely is working to 489 00:26:12,359 --> 00:26:12,920 Speaker 4: improve things. 490 00:26:12,960 --> 00:26:13,160 Speaker 3: Right. 491 00:26:14,160 --> 00:26:16,320 Speaker 1: He goes on to become the governor of Ohaka, and 492 00:26:16,359 --> 00:26:20,639 Speaker 1: he's like, I hate Santa Anna, and it works. He 493 00:26:21,320 --> 00:26:24,919 Speaker 1: takes charge. There's no more immunity for military and church people. 494 00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:26,960 Speaker 1: They have to be held to the same law as 495 00:26:26,960 --> 00:26:31,639 Speaker 1: everyone else, and by eighteen sixty one Mexico's democracy. One 496 00:26:32,040 --> 00:26:35,240 Speaker 1: weird thing along the way is that there's all these 497 00:26:35,280 --> 00:26:38,880 Speaker 1: well intentioned laws. You know how liberals do well intentioned 498 00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:41,639 Speaker 1: laws and then they have negative effects. Sometimes that's all 499 00:26:41,680 --> 00:26:45,399 Speaker 1: liberals do. Yeah, yes, So they passed this law that 500 00:26:45,440 --> 00:26:48,240 Speaker 1: basically was like pretty much like kind of like only 501 00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:50,760 Speaker 1: people can let own land. Corporations can't have huge chunks 502 00:26:50,800 --> 00:26:53,440 Speaker 1: of land. The church can't own huge, huge chunks of land, 503 00:26:53,880 --> 00:26:57,440 Speaker 1: which sounds great. The problem is that indigenous people held 504 00:26:57,440 --> 00:27:01,800 Speaker 1: their lands in common and took all their land away 505 00:27:02,119 --> 00:27:04,040 Speaker 1: or huge chunks of their land. 506 00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:06,879 Speaker 2: It stripped was that intentional? 507 00:27:07,800 --> 00:27:13,879 Speaker 1: I don't know, I think, you know, I don't really 508 00:27:13,960 --> 00:27:17,840 Speaker 1: super hard want to conjecture. I suspect that many of 509 00:27:17,880 --> 00:27:20,000 Speaker 1: the people involved in doing it knew that that was 510 00:27:20,040 --> 00:27:22,600 Speaker 1: going to happen, and we're happy for it. I think 511 00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:24,800 Speaker 1: a lot of it was like the liberalization kind of 512 00:27:24,840 --> 00:27:28,639 Speaker 1: a like, well, if we make, you know, the like 513 00:27:28,680 --> 00:27:32,520 Speaker 1: bringing indigenous people into the like capitalist culture as like 514 00:27:32,680 --> 00:27:35,199 Speaker 1: progress kind of thing. I know that a version of 515 00:27:35,240 --> 00:27:38,560 Speaker 1: it happened in the nineteenth in the early twentieth century 516 00:27:38,560 --> 00:27:39,720 Speaker 1: in the US, And I don't have this in my 517 00:27:39,760 --> 00:27:42,040 Speaker 1: script at all, but the first indigenous man who was 518 00:27:42,119 --> 00:27:45,240 Speaker 1: vice president of the United States in the twenties or thirties, 519 00:27:45,280 --> 00:27:47,280 Speaker 1: I don't remember his name. I'm completely running off of 520 00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:50,280 Speaker 1: old memory. He did a very similar thing in the 521 00:27:50,359 --> 00:27:56,400 Speaker 1: United States about privatizing indigenous vice president Yes, oh my god, 522 00:27:56,400 --> 00:27:57,320 Speaker 1: we should look this up. 523 00:27:58,600 --> 00:28:04,640 Speaker 2: Charles Curtis was Herbert Hoover's vice president. 524 00:28:04,960 --> 00:28:07,400 Speaker 1: What years is that, uh. 525 00:28:07,800 --> 00:28:11,879 Speaker 2: Nineteen twenty nine to nineteen thirty three. Bummer that he 526 00:28:12,040 --> 00:28:17,280 Speaker 2: is Herbert Hoover's vice president And he's the only mixed 527 00:28:17,359 --> 00:28:20,239 Speaker 2: race vice president in American history until the inauguration of 528 00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:23,480 Speaker 2: Kamala Harris in twenty twenty one. Oh, this is the 529 00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:27,000 Speaker 2: first US vp' to ever open the Olympic Games. Yes, id, 530 00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:27,640 Speaker 2: what's up? 531 00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:31,080 Speaker 3: I literally fucking hate this country. 532 00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:40,680 Speaker 1: I just read was so annoying. Yeah, the only thing 533 00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:42,840 Speaker 1: I'd ever read about him was this thing where he 534 00:28:43,600 --> 00:28:45,680 Speaker 1: sold off a lot of tribal lands in order to 535 00:28:45,800 --> 00:28:49,320 Speaker 1: like privatize it and then like gave people some money 536 00:28:49,360 --> 00:28:51,960 Speaker 1: instead of them having access to the means of production, like. 537 00:28:51,920 --> 00:28:55,040 Speaker 2: They Yeah, he's three eights native American. I don't know math, 538 00:28:55,080 --> 00:28:56,080 Speaker 2: I don't know how that works. 539 00:28:56,120 --> 00:29:04,480 Speaker 1: But yeah, so so this happens in Mexico. Then during 540 00:29:04,520 --> 00:29:07,040 Speaker 1: all the chaos times, Napoleon the Third invades. They kick 541 00:29:07,080 --> 00:29:08,840 Speaker 1: him out on the fifth. Well, they have a big 542 00:29:08,880 --> 00:29:11,600 Speaker 1: fight on the fifth of May eighteen sixty two, which 543 00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:14,440 Speaker 1: is where Cinco de Mayo comes from. The guy who 544 00:29:14,680 --> 00:29:19,240 Speaker 1: led that fight was named Porfio Diaz, Porfirio Diaz, and 545 00:29:19,600 --> 00:29:21,400 Speaker 1: he's going to be important in a minute. He is 546 00:29:21,440 --> 00:29:24,440 Speaker 1: fucking ruthless. Even if he's ostensibly liberal, he's a little 547 00:29:24,480 --> 00:29:28,960 Speaker 1: bit iron dragony. He's kind of a sophie, is what 548 00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:32,160 Speaker 1: I'm saying. I now feel bad about this because this 549 00:29:32,280 --> 00:29:35,360 Speaker 1: is literally the main antagonist of this week is Portfolio Dias. 550 00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:39,200 Speaker 1: But you know, cool just is what it is. You're 551 00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:39,800 Speaker 1: a baddie. 552 00:29:40,240 --> 00:29:41,600 Speaker 2: Oh my god, thank you so much. 553 00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:45,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm welcome. This is the first time this has 554 00:29:45,840 --> 00:29:51,800 Speaker 1: ever happened to me. So two folks in that battle 555 00:29:52,040 --> 00:29:56,360 Speaker 1: wind up important later. One has the Spanish version of 556 00:29:56,400 --> 00:29:59,080 Speaker 1: the best name ever, which is to say, her name 557 00:29:59,160 --> 00:30:05,680 Speaker 1: is Margarita Margariteo. Yeah, I know, right, Margarita Magone and 558 00:30:05,920 --> 00:30:10,240 Speaker 1: Teodora Flores. And they meet and fall in love because 559 00:30:10,240 --> 00:30:12,360 Speaker 1: they're fighting the French in hand to hand combat in 560 00:30:12,400 --> 00:30:16,360 Speaker 1: the streets. Yeah, and they get together and have a 561 00:30:16,360 --> 00:30:18,400 Speaker 1: bunch of kids who are the main subject of this 562 00:30:18,400 --> 00:30:22,520 Speaker 1: week's story, but we'll get to them later. It takes 563 00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:25,080 Speaker 1: Mexico until eighteen sixty seven to drive out there would 564 00:30:25,080 --> 00:30:28,760 Speaker 1: be Emperor and execute him. Mexico returns to being a republic. 565 00:30:29,000 --> 00:30:31,680 Speaker 1: They start teaching science over religion in schools, this free 566 00:30:31,680 --> 00:30:34,440 Speaker 1: school for all the kids. Like you know, some progresses 567 00:30:34,480 --> 00:30:39,280 Speaker 1: being made along the way. A new radical tendency shows 568 00:30:39,320 --> 00:30:43,560 Speaker 1: up in Mexico, socialism, and it's not just any socialism. 569 00:30:43,840 --> 00:30:47,480 Speaker 1: Mexico gets anarchist socialism. It gets though, what if we 570 00:30:47,520 --> 00:30:51,479 Speaker 1: had a horizontally organized society? Kind And it shows up 571 00:30:51,480 --> 00:30:53,680 Speaker 1: from a really interesting source from my point of view, 572 00:30:53,720 --> 00:30:55,400 Speaker 1: somebody who likes to nerd out about this kind of shit, 573 00:30:55,920 --> 00:31:00,240 Speaker 1: which hopefully at least some of you all are. There's 574 00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:05,040 Speaker 1: a Greek doctor and his name is a Plotino Rodocanati, 575 00:31:05,800 --> 00:31:08,480 Speaker 1: and he was born into the Greek aristocracy. But he's like, 576 00:31:09,480 --> 00:31:12,480 Speaker 1: what if I just run around throwing down in every 577 00:31:12,480 --> 00:31:15,400 Speaker 1: revolution that Europe has to offer. So he does that, 578 00:31:15,520 --> 00:31:19,000 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, and including the Hungarian War for Independence in 579 00:31:19,040 --> 00:31:21,760 Speaker 1: eighteen forty eight, which inspired a lot of revolutionaries at 580 00:31:21,800 --> 00:31:25,280 Speaker 1: the time. Then, at least according to one of the 581 00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:27,840 Speaker 1: sources I read, there's a couple different versions of how 582 00:31:27,840 --> 00:31:30,760 Speaker 1: he got really interested in Mexico. He started reading about 583 00:31:30,760 --> 00:31:34,160 Speaker 1: indigenous Mexican struggle, and specifically he started reading about their 584 00:31:34,160 --> 00:31:39,600 Speaker 1: autonomous villages and communal agricultural practices, and he was like, oh, 585 00:31:40,200 --> 00:31:43,640 Speaker 1: this fucking rules. Around the time, he had become a 586 00:31:43,680 --> 00:31:47,880 Speaker 1: Christian anarchist, and he was like, I'm going to move 587 00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:50,760 Speaker 1: to Mexico because I want to know more about this shit. 588 00:31:51,080 --> 00:31:53,800 Speaker 1: And so in eighteen sixty one he moves to Mexico. 589 00:31:54,320 --> 00:31:56,960 Speaker 1: He goes to Mexico City and he starts doing two things. 590 00:31:57,520 --> 00:32:00,720 Speaker 1: First and foremost, he's a doctor, right, so he just 591 00:32:00,720 --> 00:32:04,280 Speaker 1: starts treating people for free, and that's what he spends 592 00:32:04,840 --> 00:32:08,920 Speaker 1: most of his time doing. But he's also super educated 593 00:32:08,960 --> 00:32:11,520 Speaker 1: because he's from the aristocracy. He speaks seven languages, and 594 00:32:11,520 --> 00:32:15,040 Speaker 1: he's like verse in philosophy and shit. So he starts 595 00:32:15,040 --> 00:32:18,560 Speaker 1: a free school and he's running it and he's teaching it. 596 00:32:18,640 --> 00:32:21,280 Speaker 1: Soon the free school becomes a mutual aid society, which 597 00:32:21,360 --> 00:32:25,160 Speaker 1: soon becomes a resistance movement. For a while, all of 598 00:32:25,160 --> 00:32:27,320 Speaker 1: the people he teaches are like, oh, this is great, 599 00:32:27,520 --> 00:32:29,560 Speaker 1: let's go get guns and fuck up the landowners. And 600 00:32:29,560 --> 00:32:31,760 Speaker 1: he's like, wait, no, I'm kind of like a Christian 601 00:32:31,800 --> 00:32:33,880 Speaker 1: pacifist the anarchist. And they're like yeah, but we're not 602 00:32:34,280 --> 00:32:37,800 Speaker 1: so fuck off. And then later he kind of comes 603 00:32:37,800 --> 00:32:40,920 Speaker 1: around actually the more radical side of things, or the 604 00:32:40,960 --> 00:32:41,920 Speaker 1: more militant side of. 605 00:32:41,880 --> 00:32:46,200 Speaker 3: It, and Magpie explains like some deep history like drama, 606 00:32:46,680 --> 00:32:52,000 Speaker 3: like it was a fight in middle school, and like 607 00:32:52,080 --> 00:32:55,400 Speaker 3: I understand it better. I'm like, yeah, that makes sense. 608 00:32:55,440 --> 00:32:58,480 Speaker 3: They were in front of their lockers exactly. He's this 609 00:32:58,600 --> 00:33:01,600 Speaker 3: dictator and a locker. Yeah sprayed him in the face 610 00:33:01,680 --> 00:33:06,800 Speaker 3: with back's body spray. Yeah one percent. Yeah, thank you, Magpie. 611 00:33:06,960 --> 00:33:09,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, you're welcome. He has a work rage against the 612 00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:13,680 Speaker 1: machine shirt on this entire time. It's actually impressive. Absolutely, 613 00:33:16,040 --> 00:33:18,360 Speaker 1: so this guy, Uh, he spends about twenty five years 614 00:33:18,360 --> 00:33:21,560 Speaker 1: in Mexico teaching and healing, and then in eighteen eighty six, 615 00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:23,120 Speaker 1: I'm just gonna like because he's not gonna be in 616 00:33:23,120 --> 00:33:24,160 Speaker 1: the story of the rest of the time. But he's 617 00:33:24,160 --> 00:33:27,080 Speaker 1: an interesting enough guy. He just disappears from the historical 618 00:33:27,080 --> 00:33:29,840 Speaker 1: record in eighteen eighty six. Some say that he went 619 00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:31,680 Speaker 1: back to Greece. Some say that he moved into the 620 00:33:31,760 --> 00:33:35,880 Speaker 1: hills to become a farmer. No one knows. And the 621 00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:39,640 Speaker 1: Christianity that he was into was a Christianity without dogmar institution. 622 00:33:39,840 --> 00:33:45,600 Speaker 1: He refused both Protestant and Catholic affiliation. He also tried Mormonism, 623 00:33:45,720 --> 00:33:49,000 Speaker 1: which is the first like cool Mormon I've ever had 624 00:33:49,040 --> 00:33:49,960 Speaker 1: On this show. 625 00:33:51,280 --> 00:33:55,280 Speaker 3: We're really excited about this, like a week or two ago. 626 00:33:55,720 --> 00:33:58,720 Speaker 3: Margaret was like, hey, and you know that I'm serious 627 00:33:58,760 --> 00:33:59,960 Speaker 3: because I'm calling her Margaret. 628 00:34:00,800 --> 00:34:02,600 Speaker 1: Margaret was like, guess. 629 00:34:02,320 --> 00:34:03,200 Speaker 2: What, And I was like what. 630 00:34:03,920 --> 00:34:07,160 Speaker 3: Margaret was like, I think I found our first cool Mormon. 631 00:34:07,240 --> 00:34:08,560 Speaker 3: And I was like, no, you didn't. 632 00:34:09,200 --> 00:34:09,480 Speaker 1: Man. 633 00:34:09,840 --> 00:34:12,040 Speaker 3: Margaret was like, wait and see, and. 634 00:34:12,040 --> 00:34:18,000 Speaker 1: Here we are Mormon. Tell us. So he joins the 635 00:34:18,040 --> 00:34:20,359 Speaker 1: Church of the Latter day Saints because the Protestants are 636 00:34:20,360 --> 00:34:22,920 Speaker 1: too materialist, and he can't be a Catholic because the 637 00:34:22,920 --> 00:34:25,160 Speaker 1: Catholic Church is like one of the primary institutions of 638 00:34:25,440 --> 00:34:29,200 Speaker 1: domination and destruction in Mexico at the time, and so 639 00:34:29,239 --> 00:34:32,000 Speaker 1: he leads his his thing, and apparently he's kind of 640 00:34:32,280 --> 00:34:36,520 Speaker 1: part of bringing Mormonism to Mexico. But he couldn't get 641 00:34:36,560 --> 00:34:38,279 Speaker 1: the Church of Latter day Saints to agree to his 642 00:34:38,360 --> 00:34:41,240 Speaker 1: plan to overthrow the Mexican government to institute a classless 643 00:34:41,239 --> 00:34:42,640 Speaker 1: society built on mutual aid. 644 00:34:43,600 --> 00:34:46,719 Speaker 2: So he left because it's priority street. I got I 645 00:34:46,800 --> 00:34:47,480 Speaker 2: gotta say that. 646 00:34:47,719 --> 00:34:52,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, He's like, will Mormons helped me make like decolonize 647 00:34:52,520 --> 00:34:56,120 Speaker 1: Mexico into a like anarchist space And they're like no, 648 00:34:56,320 --> 00:35:01,239 Speaker 1: and he's like, all right, see you. He himself didn't 649 00:35:01,320 --> 00:35:05,879 Speaker 1: lead social struggle. The students that he taught did. They 650 00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:09,839 Speaker 1: fought alongside indigenous rebels generally, who collectively started both the 651 00:35:09,840 --> 00:35:12,600 Speaker 1: agrarian land reform movement in a modern sense and the 652 00:35:12,680 --> 00:35:17,360 Speaker 1: labor movement of Mexico from eighteen sixty seven to eighteen seventy. 653 00:35:17,480 --> 00:35:21,000 Speaker 1: One of his students, Chavez Lopez or Lopez Chavez newspapers 654 00:35:21,040 --> 00:35:24,399 Speaker 1: wrote it both ways. I guess that's what happens when 655 00:35:24,400 --> 00:35:29,120 Speaker 1: you do last names other and fifty others men and women. 656 00:35:29,560 --> 00:35:31,759 Speaker 1: And this is like the main thing that I keep 657 00:35:31,840 --> 00:35:34,840 Speaker 1: running across it's always one guy written down in history, 658 00:35:35,280 --> 00:35:37,240 Speaker 1: and so I had to I just want to shout 659 00:35:37,239 --> 00:35:40,360 Speaker 1: out Luisa Cavada, who has written down as some guy's 660 00:35:40,400 --> 00:35:42,560 Speaker 1: wife during all this struggle, even though she was as 661 00:35:42,600 --> 00:35:46,800 Speaker 1: much a fucking part of it.

They terrorized the land of 668 00:36:06,400 --> 00:36:08,719 Speaker 1: elite in the country after someone drained a lake and 669 00:36:08,760 --> 00:36:12,840 Speaker 1: displaced fifteen hundred peasants. They go around and they expropriate 670 00:36:12,880 --> 00:36:16,560 Speaker 1: the huciendas, which are basically the plantations. And they're not 671 00:36:16,680 --> 00:36:18,759 Speaker 1: just like looting, right, They're not just like, oh, we're 672 00:36:18,760 --> 00:36:20,120 Speaker 1: going to take all this stuff, right, because there's a 673 00:36:20,120 --> 00:36:22,040 Speaker 1: lot of bandits in Mexico throughout all this time and 674 00:36:22,080 --> 00:36:25,239 Speaker 1: who sometimes do cool things, sometimes do shitty things. But 675 00:36:25,400 --> 00:36:28,640 Speaker 1: instead they divvy up the land and give it back 676 00:36:28,680 --> 00:36:31,120 Speaker 1: to everyone so that everyone has an equal opportunity to 677 00:36:31,160 --> 00:36:34,440 Speaker 1: grow food and live. This makes them popular. If you 678 00:36:34,440 --> 00:36:36,719 Speaker 1: want to know a way to be popular. You find 679 00:36:36,760 --> 00:36:40,680 Speaker 1: someone who has like ten million acres and you take 680 00:36:40,719 --> 00:36:43,520 Speaker 1: it from him with a sword and then give it 681 00:36:43,560 --> 00:36:45,719 Speaker 1: to everyone. 682 00:36:45,960 --> 00:36:48,719 Speaker 2: Great strategy, I know, I know. 683 00:36:48,960 --> 00:36:52,359 Speaker 1: It's a lot of folks who joined them did so 684 00:36:52,400 --> 00:36:54,680 Speaker 1: specifically because they were like, oh, finally we can do 685 00:36:54,760 --> 00:36:57,120 Speaker 1: things the old way again, right and having communal land 686 00:36:57,160 --> 00:36:59,480 Speaker 1: practices and all the stuff that they grew up with 687 00:37:00,040 --> 00:37:04,279 Speaker 1: their families grew up with a slight majority of this crew, 688 00:37:04,360 --> 00:37:06,440 Speaker 1: the like fifty plus people get away. In the end, 689 00:37:07,200 --> 00:37:09,960 Speaker 1: many see death by firing squad or die in battle. 690 00:37:11,160 --> 00:37:14,960 Speaker 1: Chavez gets executed. His last words are long lived Socialism. 691 00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:18,960 Speaker 1: His death in eighteen sixty eight didn't stop the rebellion 692 00:37:19,040 --> 00:37:22,400 Speaker 1: because he wasn't in charge. It went on twice as 693 00:37:22,440 --> 00:37:25,319 Speaker 1: long without him as it did with him. And three 694 00:37:25,320 --> 00:37:27,680 Speaker 1: of the survivors of his band, including our girl Louisa, 695 00:37:28,400 --> 00:37:31,560 Speaker 1: they go to Chiapas in southern Mexico and they get 696 00:37:31,560 --> 00:37:35,320 Speaker 1: involved in the indigenous uprisings there of eighteen sixty nine. Basically, 697 00:37:35,360 --> 00:37:38,480 Speaker 1: they show up and give weapons trainings, and folks are 698 00:37:38,520 --> 00:37:41,359 Speaker 1: like and they give weapons trainings and like, all right, now, 699 00:37:41,400 --> 00:37:43,160 Speaker 1: what should we do? Whatever you decide to do, We're 700 00:37:43,160 --> 00:37:46,960 Speaker 1: in it, which was attack those who have stolen all 701 00:37:47,000 --> 00:37:51,520 Speaker 1: the land for themselves and distribute it fairly again. So 702 00:37:51,560 --> 00:37:54,520 Speaker 1: they go and do that. And it was this agrarian 703 00:37:54,560 --> 00:37:58,200 Speaker 1: movement of combined anarchist and indigenous and anarchist indigenous struggle 704 00:37:58,400 --> 00:38:01,719 Speaker 1: that influenced the later movement of Emiliano Zapata is a 705 00:38:01,719 --> 00:38:04,120 Speaker 1: revolutionary war hero will be part of another week's episode, 706 00:38:04,160 --> 00:38:05,800 Speaker 1: but we can't don't have time to get to him 707 00:38:06,040 --> 00:38:08,040 Speaker 1: this week, And I'm sad. This was almost like a 708 00:38:08,080 --> 00:38:10,200 Speaker 1: six parter that I dragged you into and then realized 709 00:38:10,239 --> 00:38:13,880 Speaker 1: I should not do that, I should divide it in 710 00:38:13,920 --> 00:38:19,319 Speaker 1: a more natural way. And therefore this struggle in Chiapas 711 00:38:19,480 --> 00:38:23,439 Speaker 1: influenced the pata and then influence the Zapatistas, who now 712 00:38:23,600 --> 00:38:27,360 Speaker 1: control huge chunks of Chiapas in an autonomous way. So 713 00:38:27,440 --> 00:38:31,680 Speaker 1: that's fucking cool.

So in the city 763 00:41:31,080 --> 00:41:34,040 Speaker 1: you get the start of the labor movement in eighteen 764 00:41:34,120 --> 00:41:36,319 Speaker 1: sixty five, you get what's called the first strike in 765 00:41:36,360 --> 00:41:40,880 Speaker 1: Mexican history. This isn't true except by a technicality. Every time, 766 00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:46,799 Speaker 1: every book is always like the first, the biggest, the longest, 767 00:41:46,800 --> 00:41:50,360 Speaker 1: like some super superlative, and I always google it and 768 00:41:50,400 --> 00:41:53,680 Speaker 1: it's never true. But this one might be true by 769 00:41:53,680 --> 00:41:56,280 Speaker 1: a technicality, because there was a strike in New Spain 770 00:41:56,920 --> 00:42:01,840 Speaker 1: ninety nine years earlier among silver miners. But eighteen sixty 771 00:42:01,840 --> 00:42:03,880 Speaker 1: five you get the start of the modern Mexican labor movement. 772 00:42:04,320 --> 00:42:07,240 Speaker 1: And this was anarchist at two different textile plants, one 773 00:42:07,360 --> 00:42:09,960 Speaker 1: of men, one of women in Mexico City. On June tenth, 774 00:42:10,040 --> 00:42:13,840 Speaker 1: eighteen sixty five, the government showed up with rifles and 775 00:42:13,880 --> 00:42:18,799 Speaker 1: they shot people and the strike was broken, so they 776 00:42:18,800 --> 00:42:19,600 Speaker 1: all gave up. 777 00:42:20,040 --> 00:42:20,120 Speaker 2: No. 778 00:42:20,320 --> 00:42:23,560 Speaker 1: In eighteen sixty eight, the struggle moved to Tolonta Pontla 779 00:42:23,560 --> 00:42:25,839 Speaker 1: de Bas, which used to be more of its own 780 00:42:25,840 --> 00:42:28,080 Speaker 1: city but is now part of the greater Mexico City area. 781 00:42:28,680 --> 00:42:31,120 Speaker 1: And you have four factories of anarchist textile workers. I 782 00:42:31,120 --> 00:42:34,040 Speaker 1: believe all women who go on strike. Before the strike, 783 00:42:34,080 --> 00:42:36,160 Speaker 1: they worked fourteen hour days in the summer, twelve hour 784 00:42:36,239 --> 00:42:39,319 Speaker 1: days in the winter. They were allowed five minutes each 785 00:42:39,400 --> 00:42:42,439 Speaker 1: day to eat. It's sony because things are so bad 786 00:42:42,520 --> 00:42:44,359 Speaker 1: right now, and so there's all of this like rise 787 00:42:44,440 --> 00:42:46,719 Speaker 1: of the modern labor movement. I'm really excited about it, 788 00:42:48,600 --> 00:42:50,840 Speaker 1: and I still like sometimes read all this stuff and 789 00:42:50,840 --> 00:42:53,759 Speaker 1: I'm like, I mean, we just shouldn't let things get 790 00:42:53,800 --> 00:42:56,520 Speaker 1: this way, right, But it's like that's not sure. I know, 791 00:42:56,560 --> 00:42:58,560 Speaker 1: people will work fourteen hour days and shit and just 792 00:42:58,600 --> 00:43:01,480 Speaker 1: have to do fucking a million different jobs and like 793 00:43:01,920 --> 00:43:04,360 Speaker 1: drive uber eats and shit. I don't know whatever. Anyway, 794 00:43:05,480 --> 00:43:09,960 Speaker 1: it's fucking bad, so they strike. They win. This is 795 00:43:10,000 --> 00:43:13,600 Speaker 1: the first successful strike in Mexican history. Again, skeptical first, 796 00:43:13,600 --> 00:43:18,160 Speaker 1: but whatever, it fucking rules. After this, anarchist projects crop 797 00:43:18,239 --> 00:43:21,359 Speaker 1: up everywhere. It's mostly put folks pushing for worker cooperatives 798 00:43:22,360 --> 00:43:27,400 Speaker 1: and the socialist groups. They let any worker in, and 799 00:43:27,440 --> 00:43:30,160 Speaker 1: they even allow some employers. And you can only be 800 00:43:30,239 --> 00:43:32,879 Speaker 1: in the socialist group if your employees vouch for you 801 00:43:32,920 --> 00:43:37,880 Speaker 1: as like actually a decent boss, right oh hell yeah yeah. 802 00:43:37,920 --> 00:43:40,840 Speaker 1: And it's like it's mostly these artisans, like some shoemaker 803 00:43:40,880 --> 00:43:44,440 Speaker 1: who hires assistance or whatever is like, hey, like I 804 00:43:44,480 --> 00:43:46,359 Speaker 1: want to be part of this too, and just ask 805 00:43:46,440 --> 00:43:49,160 Speaker 1: the assistants.

And once we get to the Maganesis, 840 00:45:24,680 --> 00:45:27,320 Speaker 1: there's gonna be a few more women by name, literally, 841 00:45:27,320 --> 00:45:30,520 Speaker 1: because the most recent and best book about the Maganistas is, 842 00:45:32,360 --> 00:45:35,840 Speaker 1: which I'll talk about in a bit. Actually, someone already 843 00:45:35,880 --> 00:45:38,480 Speaker 1: did the work of writing all the women who were 844 00:45:38,480 --> 00:45:41,239 Speaker 1: central to the story back into the fucking story. The 845 00:45:41,239 --> 00:45:45,640 Speaker 1: first two books I read about the Maganestas fucking didn't anyway. Whatever, 846 00:45:45,920 --> 00:45:50,880 Speaker 1: I'm not bitter, Wait, yeah, I am okay. In the meantime, 847 00:45:51,520 --> 00:45:54,400 Speaker 1: our man portfolio Diaz, the hero Sinco de Maya. He 848 00:45:54,480 --> 00:45:56,480 Speaker 1: is not our man. He is a fucking bastard, not 849 00:45:56,520 --> 00:45:59,560 Speaker 1: even a baddie, as I have learned, He's just a bastard. 850 00:46:00,280 --> 00:46:00,959 Speaker 1: He comes to pass. 851 00:46:01,120 --> 00:46:02,480 Speaker 2: Let's let me see if he's a baddie. How do 852 00:46:02,480 --> 00:46:03,120 Speaker 2: you spell his name? 853 00:46:03,160 --> 00:46:09,960 Speaker 1: Oh? Portfolio okay, so po r f I r io. 854 00:46:11,120 --> 00:46:13,680 Speaker 2: Okay cool. Oh he is not a battie, you know, 855 00:46:13,760 --> 00:46:15,800 Speaker 2: he's definitely not a batty. He's a bastard. 856 00:46:16,320 --> 00:46:18,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, No, Kata is confirmed. 857 00:46:18,120 --> 00:46:19,000 Speaker 3: Kata is confirmed. 858 00:46:19,600 --> 00:46:25,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm I'm double checking and I agree completely. So 859 00:46:25,640 --> 00:46:29,160 Speaker 1: he sucks. He runs on a like I'm a cool 860 00:46:29,200 --> 00:46:32,160 Speaker 1: liberal and I'm the guy from Cinco de Mayo, you 861 00:46:32,200 --> 00:46:34,799 Speaker 1: should vote for me. And he runs on a no 862 00:46:34,840 --> 00:46:37,759 Speaker 1: one should be president twice campaign, and that's like his 863 00:46:37,880 --> 00:46:41,120 Speaker 1: whole thing. He loses a couple of times, so he 864 00:46:41,200 --> 00:46:45,760 Speaker 1: stages a coup and then wins, which is a way 865 00:46:46,080 --> 00:46:49,239 Speaker 1: that people in the US have tried recently to win. 866 00:46:49,480 --> 00:46:52,760 Speaker 1: But he becomes a dictator for more than three decades. 867 00:46:53,040 --> 00:46:55,359 Speaker 1: He absolutely does not keep to his no one should 868 00:46:55,360 --> 00:46:58,839 Speaker 1: be president twice thing. He just slowly extends the like 869 00:46:59,239 --> 00:47:01,520 Speaker 1: how long the pre it's allowed to be president. Basically, 870 00:47:02,600 --> 00:47:04,759 Speaker 1: it'll take a revolution to knock him out. He is 871 00:47:04,800 --> 00:47:08,520 Speaker 1: sometimes called a constitutional dictator because technically he was just president, 872 00:47:09,480 --> 00:47:11,960 Speaker 1: but he rigged every single election. He jailed and killed 873 00:47:11,960 --> 00:47:15,040 Speaker 1: his opponents. His legislative branch didn't have any real power. 874 00:47:15,320 --> 00:47:18,720 Speaker 1: He was a fucking dictator. And you can totally tell 875 00:47:19,680 --> 00:47:22,880 Speaker 1: the tone of what Mexican history thing you're listening to 876 00:47:23,280 --> 00:47:25,239 Speaker 1: based on how they treat this guy. There's a lot 877 00:47:25,239 --> 00:47:28,560 Speaker 1: of people handwave about like, well he brought stability and prosperity, 878 00:47:29,040 --> 00:47:31,640 Speaker 1: and then people are like everyone starved to death under him. 879 00:47:31,719 --> 00:47:36,040 Speaker 1: He literally just increased, like the GDP, right, the actual 880 00:47:36,080 --> 00:47:39,800 Speaker 1: wages for people went down under him. Everyone was poorer 881 00:47:39,840 --> 00:47:44,480 Speaker 1: and more fucked than during the like decades of chaos. 882 00:47:45,120 --> 00:47:47,720 Speaker 1: I don't really like him, is what I'm trying to say, Margaret. 883 00:47:47,719 --> 00:47:51,880 Speaker 2: Have you considered that maybe the rich people really benefited 884 00:47:51,920 --> 00:47:53,359 Speaker 2: from that system? Huh? 885 00:47:53,440 --> 00:47:57,200 Speaker 1: Oh there were winners. 886 00:47:57,000 --> 00:47:59,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly, So you can't be mad. You know, you 887 00:47:59,120 --> 00:48:01,960 Speaker 2: got to take someone, Yeah, takes them? Yeah, whatever the 888 00:48:01,960 --> 00:48:03,880 Speaker 2: other one is, I'm tired. 889 00:48:04,000 --> 00:48:06,160 Speaker 1: And also he was he was mestizo. He was he 890 00:48:06,280 --> 00:48:12,080 Speaker 1: was not entirely white. And although he hired a bunch 891 00:48:12,120 --> 00:48:15,360 Speaker 1: of race scientists that he called his Scientific Council or 892 00:48:15,400 --> 00:48:18,600 Speaker 1: whatever the fuck who claimed that Mexico needed the European 893 00:48:18,680 --> 00:48:24,879 Speaker 1: race to rule it, and he removed limits on land 894 00:48:24,880 --> 00:48:28,560 Speaker 1: ownership and seized even more fucking land from indigenous people 895 00:48:29,520 --> 00:48:32,720 Speaker 1: causing huge uprisings, one of which I the Yachi people. 896 00:48:32,760 --> 00:48:34,640 Speaker 1: I want to like, I think that might be a 897 00:48:34,680 --> 00:48:36,719 Speaker 1: totally separate thing. I thought about diving more and more 898 00:48:36,719 --> 00:48:38,279 Speaker 1: into them, but then the more I dove down that 899 00:48:38,360 --> 00:48:40,040 Speaker 1: rabbit hole, I was like, this is his own fucking 900 00:48:40,120 --> 00:48:41,719 Speaker 1: amazing story. Does this? 901 00:48:42,000 --> 00:48:45,680 Speaker 3: Does this fucker like die painfully? Like what's happening? 902 00:48:46,800 --> 00:48:49,600 Speaker 1: Oh my god, I remember how the person who replaces 903 00:48:49,680 --> 00:48:53,319 Speaker 1: him dies. I don't, off the top of my head, 904 00:48:53,320 --> 00:48:56,560 Speaker 1: don't remember how he dies. I know, which means it's. 905 00:48:56,400 --> 00:48:58,960 Speaker 3: Probably all exiles. 906 00:48:59,040 --> 00:49:02,719 Speaker 1: Cool. Okay, Wait one we're finding out because this is 907 00:49:02,760 --> 00:49:03,600 Speaker 1: the kind of thing that. 908 00:49:04,760 --> 00:49:10,239 Speaker 3: Yeah, you're talking about someone who truly fucking sucks.

I mean he died 912 00:49:16,880 --> 00:49:19,799 Speaker 3: in exile in France. Yeah, I want to see how 913 00:49:19,840 --> 00:49:23,120 Speaker 3: he died. Yeah, because being exiled and then you're in 914 00:49:23,280 --> 00:49:24,600 Speaker 3: France not that. 915 00:49:24,600 --> 00:49:29,680 Speaker 2: Bad, mainly to old age study doc. 916 00:49:30,880 --> 00:49:36,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, damn it, magpie, I mean exile. Cool. 917 00:49:37,840 --> 00:49:42,440 Speaker 2: Oh, officially this is from Britannica. Officially, he died of 918 00:49:42,480 --> 00:49:46,000 Speaker 2: a heart attack that it was speculated he'd been murdered 919 00:49:46,000 --> 00:49:48,520 Speaker 2: by prison guards or died of medical neglect. 920 00:49:48,719 --> 00:49:51,680 Speaker 3: Yes, there it is, baby like, No, this is totally 921 00:49:51,719 --> 00:49:52,880 Speaker 3: this is a different person. 922 00:49:54,360 --> 00:49:54,760 Speaker 1: Character. 923 00:49:57,000 --> 00:49:58,800 Speaker 2: I got it. He just had that with Paris, probably 924 00:49:58,800 --> 00:50:00,080 Speaker 2: got like a stipend or something. 925 00:50:00,120 --> 00:50:03,439 Speaker 3: Fuck this Yeah, oh I was excited, all right, all right, 926 00:50:03,680 --> 00:50:04,760 Speaker 3: fucking old age. 927 00:50:05,000 --> 00:50:09,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, the before I ideas, it's called the porfiato porfuriato. 928 00:50:10,280 --> 00:50:14,160 Speaker 1: This period he modernized Spain and offered its stability by 929 00:50:14,200 --> 00:50:17,920 Speaker 1: killing everyone he didn't like. When he first came to power, 930 00:50:17,960 --> 00:50:20,279 Speaker 1: he ran as a liberal right originally, and so the 931 00:50:20,280 --> 00:50:23,880 Speaker 1: moderate socialists supported him because he made vague promises about reform. 932 00:50:23,920 --> 00:50:26,399 Speaker 1: He kept none of them. The anarchists, of course, didn't 933 00:50:26,400 --> 00:50:29,640 Speaker 1: support him. They didn't support his opponents either, They supported 934 00:50:29,680 --> 00:50:32,839 Speaker 1: not having a ruler. Fortunately, the split didn't last too long. 935 00:50:32,880 --> 00:50:35,120 Speaker 1: After Diaz comes to power and he shows his true color, 936 00:50:35,200 --> 00:50:40,319 Speaker 1: the socialists are back to being united and people, you know, 937 00:50:40,360 --> 00:50:42,319 Speaker 1: they get together and they're like really excited about all this, 938 00:50:44,239 --> 00:50:47,120 Speaker 1: but they're actual actions. The socialists actual actions, both labor 939 00:50:47,160 --> 00:50:50,719 Speaker 1: actions and the agrarian revolts are met with brutal repression. 940 00:50:51,440 --> 00:50:53,800 Speaker 1: From eighteen seventy eight eighteen eighty four, there are several 941 00:50:53,920 --> 00:50:58,200 Speaker 1: armed anarchists slash indigenous peasant uprisings. The ideological leaders are 942 00:50:58,280 --> 00:51:03,399 Speaker 1: killed and the movements continue. The article I read refers 943 00:51:03,440 --> 00:51:06,080 Speaker 1: to them as getting snuffed out. These uprisings. It's a 944 00:51:06,080 --> 00:51:09,600 Speaker 1: combination of executions and exile. The strikes were put down 945 00:51:09,600 --> 00:51:14,280 Speaker 1: by troops. Agrarian revolters were hunted down. Leftists were killed, 946 00:51:14,400 --> 00:51:18,279 Speaker 1: often by what was called leg or fuga. It's the 947 00:51:18,320 --> 00:51:21,879 Speaker 1: fugitive law, which means you're allowed to kill anyone who's 948 00:51:21,920 --> 00:51:25,960 Speaker 1: trying to escape, which means they're like, oh, no, he's 949 00:51:26,080 --> 00:51:28,680 Speaker 1: running away. Like literally, as long as you shoot someone 950 00:51:28,680 --> 00:51:31,560 Speaker 1: in the back, it's legal, which is a pretty wait. 951 00:51:31,680 --> 00:51:33,440 Speaker 2: Escape from Mexico no. 952 00:51:33,440 --> 00:51:36,440 Speaker 1: Like escape from captivity. Like if a cop comes up 953 00:51:36,440 --> 00:51:37,759 Speaker 1: to you and he's like come with me, and you're 954 00:51:37,760 --> 00:51:40,120 Speaker 1: like I don't wanna, then they can be like, ah, 955 00:51:40,160 --> 00:51:41,719 Speaker 1: well now I get to kill you. Right. 956 00:51:42,320 --> 00:51:44,680 Speaker 2: Oh that's so strange and only happens in this one time, 957 00:51:44,760 --> 00:51:45,000 Speaker 2: I know. 958 00:51:45,040 --> 00:51:49,319 Speaker 1: That's what's Yeah. Ten thousand people met their death to 959 00:51:49,480 --> 00:51:55,440 Speaker 1: leif fuga. The only place that I get so angry 960 00:51:55,440 --> 00:51:58,880 Speaker 1: about that. I hate whenever people are like, but he 961 00:51:59,000 --> 00:52:01,440 Speaker 1: was running away, and you're like, do you hear yourself, 962 00:52:01,680 --> 00:52:05,920 Speaker 1: Do you hear what you just said? Like? Why would 963 00:52:06,120 --> 00:52:12,760 Speaker 1: that anyway? Whatever? Okay, the left doesn't give up anarchist 964 00:52:12,760 --> 00:52:14,839 Speaker 1: ideas wind up influencing a huge number of the later 965 00:52:14,840 --> 00:52:20,360 Speaker 1: revolutionary leaders. Many go on to advocate for states. They 966 00:52:21,080 --> 00:52:23,920 Speaker 1: but even the revolutionary leaders who advocate for states, they 967 00:52:24,000 --> 00:52:27,000 Speaker 1: end up more focused on regional autonomy and land reform 968 00:52:27,160 --> 00:52:32,239 Speaker 1: as a result of all of this socialism, and eventually 969 00:52:32,640 --> 00:52:36,000 Speaker 1: the left goes into decline under Diaz because open organizing 970 00:52:36,080 --> 00:52:39,239 Speaker 1: is just too fucking dangerous. Everyone's just being murdered. There's 971 00:52:39,239 --> 00:52:42,560 Speaker 1: all these wildcat strikes, particularly among textile workers who just 972 00:52:42,600 --> 00:52:44,839 Speaker 1: fucking rule and just keep wanting to strike no matter what. 973 00:52:45,800 --> 00:52:47,400 Speaker 1: Until we get to the main point of the story, 974 00:52:47,560 --> 00:52:49,680 Speaker 1: until we get to a grouchy and unpleasant man who 975 00:52:49,760 --> 00:52:52,400 Speaker 1: put his entire life, body, and soul into the movement. 976 00:52:53,200 --> 00:52:55,760 Speaker 1: He wound up being called the forefather of the Mexican Revolution, 977 00:52:56,440 --> 00:52:59,239 Speaker 1: even it wasn't anything like the revolution that he fought for. 978 00:53:00,040 --> 00:53:02,600 Speaker 1: Until we get to the Maganistas. This would be where 979 00:53:02,600 --> 00:53:04,680 Speaker 1: we make you wait till next week. But there's more, 980 00:53:04,840 --> 00:53:10,200 Speaker 1: because I naha a lot in this one. 981 00:53:10,520 --> 00:53:11,160 Speaker 2: Let's get it. 982 00:53:11,320 --> 00:53:15,240 Speaker 1: Ricardo Flores macgone was born in Ohaka on September sixteenth, 983 00:53:15,280 --> 00:53:18,239 Speaker 1: eighteen seventy three. His father was indigenous from the Zappa 984 00:53:18,320 --> 00:53:21,160 Speaker 1: Tech people, and his father had been a soldier but 985 00:53:21,320 --> 00:53:24,279 Speaker 1: was cut off from his pension when the bureaucracy was like, oh, 986 00:53:24,320 --> 00:53:26,279 Speaker 1: we like totally lost the records that you fought you 987 00:53:26,280 --> 00:53:30,960 Speaker 1: should bring those records. But the dad lost his pension 988 00:53:31,000 --> 00:53:33,520 Speaker 1: records as well as his first wife and his mother 989 00:53:33,560 --> 00:53:38,799 Speaker 1: in law to a house fire. Mcgone's father had a 990 00:53:38,840 --> 00:53:41,040 Speaker 1: really fucking rough life. 991 00:53:41,239 --> 00:53:42,080 Speaker 2: That's so sad. 992 00:53:42,239 --> 00:53:47,799 Speaker 1: Yeah, so he common in law Marys Ricardo's mother, who 993 00:53:47,880 --> 00:53:51,160 Speaker 1: is Mestizo, part Indigenous, part Spanish, one white ancestor. But 994 00:53:51,200 --> 00:53:53,839 Speaker 1: that's enough to like elevate you in the social weird 995 00:53:53,920 --> 00:53:57,319 Speaker 1: hierarchy classes. His parents were common in law married. They 996 00:53:57,400 --> 00:54:01,160 Speaker 1: never had a ceremony or anything official, I think because 997 00:54:01,160 --> 00:54:02,560 Speaker 1: of not really wanting to have much to do with 998 00:54:02,600 --> 00:54:08,440 Speaker 1: the Mexican state. And Ricardo grew up understanding that the 999 00:54:08,480 --> 00:54:10,840 Speaker 1: indigenous forms of mutual aid, where no one in his 1000 00:54:10,880 --> 00:54:12,840 Speaker 1: town was rich and no one in his town was poor, 1001 00:54:12,960 --> 00:54:15,040 Speaker 1: was the way the world ought to work. He grew 1002 00:54:15,120 --> 00:54:17,279 Speaker 1: up in a town with no judges, no jails, and 1003 00:54:17,320 --> 00:54:23,759 Speaker 1: no cops, and he's basically like, obviously this Diez's appropriation 1004 00:54:24,000 --> 00:54:27,320 Speaker 1: of rural lands meant that capitalism was creeping ever closer 1005 00:54:27,440 --> 00:54:31,600 Speaker 1: to what Ricardo saw as his anarchist, communist indigenous upbringing. 1006 00:54:33,440 --> 00:54:36,239 Speaker 1: There was actually an uprising there. This is after he 1007 00:54:36,360 --> 00:54:39,040 Speaker 1: leaves right like right near the birth town where he 1008 00:54:39,239 --> 00:54:41,200 Speaker 1: lived for a little while. That is interesting enough that 1009 00:54:41,239 --> 00:54:43,960 Speaker 1: I want to stick it in. The folks there were like, 1010 00:54:44,120 --> 00:54:47,440 Speaker 1: we don't like our priest. We like our local holy figure, 1011 00:54:47,440 --> 00:54:50,640 Speaker 1: who is a teenage healer named Teresa Area, the Saint 1012 00:54:50,640 --> 00:54:53,719 Speaker 1: of Kabora. And so they're like, we don't want the 1013 00:54:53,719 --> 00:54:57,319 Speaker 1: Catholic church. Fuck off, We've got our saint. So they 1014 00:54:57,400 --> 00:55:02,560 Speaker 1: kick out the priest. The state burns down the village. 1015 00:55:02,680 --> 00:55:06,880 Speaker 1: They kill three hundred people. They just destroy this village 1016 00:55:07,080 --> 00:55:10,879 Speaker 1: for kicking out the church. The survivors flee to the US. 1017 00:55:10,960 --> 00:55:14,200 Speaker 1: I'm like, this is a cool story. It's interesting. The 1018 00:55:14,239 --> 00:55:18,000 Speaker 1: survivors flee to the US, including Teresa, who continued to 1019 00:55:18,120 --> 00:55:21,640 Speaker 1: organize against the Diaz regime support union activity. She go 1020 00:55:21,680 --> 00:55:24,120 Speaker 1: around on like speaking tours and then she give all 1021 00:55:24,160 --> 00:55:28,600 Speaker 1: of her money to the poor. She dies of friend 1022 00:55:28,640 --> 00:55:32,880 Speaker 1: of the pod tuberculosis in nineteen oh six, and it 1023 00:55:32,920 --> 00:55:35,640 Speaker 1: took me. As I mentioned, the third book I read 1024 00:55:35,800 --> 00:55:39,600 Speaker 1: to read about the women related to any of this uprising, 1025 00:55:40,360 --> 00:55:42,719 Speaker 1: and that book that I recommend to everyone is called 1026 00:55:42,719 --> 00:55:46,399 Speaker 1: Bad Mexicans by Kelly Leidel Hernandez. That is the book 1027 00:55:46,440 --> 00:55:50,200 Speaker 1: to read about maganestas. It's worth reading. Like there's some 1028 00:55:50,239 --> 00:55:52,880 Speaker 1: other books that like collect the writings of a lot 1029 00:55:52,960 --> 00:55:54,640 Speaker 1: of these people and that's like really cool too, like 1030 00:55:54,680 --> 00:55:58,520 Speaker 1: primary source stuff. But if you want to not be 1031 00:55:58,600 --> 00:56:01,560 Speaker 1: written out of history, Bad Mexicans, this is your book. 1032 00:56:03,239 --> 00:56:06,000 Speaker 1: The older mcgon brother, his name is Hajzus, he goes 1033 00:56:06,040 --> 00:56:08,280 Speaker 1: to jail for writing about what happened in that uprising 1034 00:56:10,080 --> 00:56:12,799 Speaker 1: along the way before the burning of the town. Their 1035 00:56:12,800 --> 00:56:16,160 Speaker 1: father dies because he had a fucking hard life, and 1036 00:56:16,200 --> 00:56:18,120 Speaker 1: the mother moves them to Mexico City so that her 1037 00:56:18,160 --> 00:56:22,560 Speaker 1: children can get an education. Ricardo goes to law school. 1038 00:56:22,960 --> 00:56:25,800 Speaker 1: When he's seventeen, he's arrested for the first time alongside 1039 00:56:25,800 --> 00:56:30,520 Speaker 1: his brother Hazus for protesting against reelection, and he's set 1040 00:56:30,560 --> 00:56:34,239 Speaker 1: free because other protests gets so hot and demand the 1041 00:56:34,280 --> 00:56:37,040 Speaker 1: release of prisoners, and so a lot of the prisoners 1042 00:56:37,040 --> 00:56:38,719 Speaker 1: get set free, which is a thing that's happened a 1043 00:56:38,760 --> 00:56:40,960 Speaker 1: lot in history, and I think that Americans should consider 1044 00:56:42,080 --> 00:56:45,040 Speaker 1: His brother stays behind bars for a while longer. So 1045 00:56:45,120 --> 00:56:47,239 Speaker 1: Ricardo drops out of school. He drops out of law school, 1046 00:56:47,239 --> 00:56:49,160 Speaker 1: and he gets in the newspapers. First, he edits for 1047 00:56:49,239 --> 00:56:52,480 Speaker 1: the El Democrata, which was shut down by Diaz. When 1048 00:56:52,520 --> 00:56:55,200 Speaker 1: the newspaper was raided after only three months of existing, 1049 00:56:55,560 --> 00:57:00,839 Speaker 1: Ricardo escaped by jumping out of a window. And then 1050 00:57:00,880 --> 00:57:03,680 Speaker 1: he becomes a wanderer. He has the rough six years. 1051 00:57:04,080 --> 00:57:06,680 Speaker 1: He works odd jobs. He has a job banana carrier 1052 00:57:07,080 --> 00:57:11,399 Speaker 1: and job ice vendor, and he's sending money back. 1053 00:57:11,440 --> 00:57:15,799 Speaker 2: So a very old timey Mexican job. Absolutely, it's like 1054 00:57:15,840 --> 00:57:18,240 Speaker 2: the equivalent of like being in New York in nineteen twelve, 1055 00:57:18,280 --> 00:57:19,840 Speaker 2: and it's like button cleaner. 1056 00:57:19,760 --> 00:57:23,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, exactly where it secretly means that you go 1057 00:57:23,240 --> 00:57:25,120 Speaker 1: into the sewers and pull the buttons out of like 1058 00:57:25,240 --> 00:57:30,640 Speaker 1: human group. Yep. And so he sends a bunch of 1059 00:57:30,640 --> 00:57:32,880 Speaker 1: money back to his mother. I believe different sources talk 1060 00:57:32,920 --> 00:57:35,480 Speaker 1: about this period of his life differently. He gets into 1061 00:57:35,480 --> 00:57:38,400 Speaker 1: the CD side of life. He's drinking and gambling and fucking. 1062 00:57:39,320 --> 00:57:42,040 Speaker 1: He is both befriending and hiring sex workers. I think 1063 00:57:42,120 --> 00:57:46,080 Speaker 1: unrelated to the two. He does wind up with an 1064 00:57:46,120 --> 00:57:50,320 Speaker 1: STI that leaves him sterile during this period of his life. 1065 00:57:50,560 --> 00:57:52,440 Speaker 1: And it's during this period of life that he like, 1066 00:57:53,240 --> 00:57:54,880 Speaker 1: it's funny because they're like, during this period of life, 1067 00:57:54,920 --> 00:57:56,240 Speaker 1: he sees how bad people have it. And I'm like, 1068 00:57:56,320 --> 00:58:00,120 Speaker 1: he grew up in a town that got burned out anyway, 1069 00:58:00,280 --> 00:58:03,240 Speaker 1: but he sees just how fucking bad. And maybe it's 1070 00:58:03,240 --> 00:58:05,200 Speaker 1: because he's from more of an indigenous background that like 1071 00:58:05,240 --> 00:58:06,880 Speaker 1: where folks were able to take care of each other, 1072 00:58:07,160 --> 00:58:09,520 Speaker 1: and he sees how bad the fucking working class has it. 1073 00:58:10,400 --> 00:58:13,120 Speaker 1: So in eighteen ninety nine, he's like, all right, what 1074 00:58:13,200 --> 00:58:17,560 Speaker 1: about revolution, revolution in newspapers, let's fucking go. Also, I 1075 00:58:17,600 --> 00:58:19,880 Speaker 1: want to be a bohemian, wear all black, talk about 1076 00:58:19,880 --> 00:58:23,160 Speaker 1: politics and cafes, and read poetry. So he does what 1077 00:58:23,160 --> 00:58:25,040 Speaker 1: everyone does when they want to be a bohemian and 1078 00:58:25,080 --> 00:58:28,040 Speaker 1: they don't come from money. He moves in back with 1079 00:58:28,080 --> 00:58:32,920 Speaker 1: his mother because Margaret's are always there for you and 1080 00:58:32,960 --> 00:58:38,560 Speaker 1: we won't let you down. In nineteen what's his last name, Floresmagon. 1081 00:58:39,840 --> 00:58:41,600 Speaker 2: We're doing a batty test on this guy. 1082 00:58:41,720 --> 00:58:45,440 Speaker 1: His brother's hotter. His brother, Enrique is definitely hotter. 1083 00:58:46,160 --> 00:58:46,520 Speaker 3: Damn. 1084 00:58:46,720 --> 00:58:49,120 Speaker 2: If he just like didn't have the mustache, I could 1085 00:58:49,160 --> 00:58:54,120 Speaker 2: totally see. Oh yeah, here's his brother. His brother's definitely hotter. 1086 00:58:56,760 --> 00:58:58,600 Speaker 3: I like that magpipe predetermined. 1087 00:58:58,920 --> 00:59:01,920 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, no, you were totally right. 1088 00:59:02,040 --> 00:59:03,600 Speaker 1: I look up photos of the good guys. 1089 00:59:05,520 --> 00:59:07,920 Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, okay, they passed the batty test, especially if 1090 00:59:07,880 --> 00:59:09,760 Speaker 2: you know't you're dressing an all black hang out with 1091 00:59:09,800 --> 00:59:14,080 Speaker 2: your mom. Yeah hey yeah, sex workers Yeah yeah, all right, 1092 00:59:14,440 --> 00:59:15,080 Speaker 2: body approved? 1093 00:59:15,160 --> 00:59:18,280 Speaker 1: Yeah no, I yeah, so. 1094 00:59:20,280 --> 00:59:20,520 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1095 00:59:21,480 --> 00:59:23,840 Speaker 1: In nineteen hundred, he and Jesus start a paper that 1096 00:59:23,920 --> 00:59:28,280 Speaker 1: changes the world, is called regeneration On and it was 1097 00:59:28,320 --> 00:59:31,320 Speaker 1: mostly originally a legal paper. It covers issues the miscarriage 1098 00:59:31,320 --> 00:59:34,400 Speaker 1: of justice under Diaz because his brother's a lawyer. It's 1099 00:59:34,400 --> 00:59:36,600 Speaker 1: basically if the National Lawyer's Guild started a newspaper that 1100 00:59:36,680 --> 00:59:41,640 Speaker 1: led to the overthrow of a dictator. In nineteen nineteen 1101 00:59:41,720 --> 00:59:44,720 Speaker 1: hundred and one, people were like, what if we didn't 1102 00:59:44,720 --> 00:59:47,000 Speaker 1: have a right wing dictator and called for a liberal party. 1103 00:59:47,600 --> 00:59:50,440 Speaker 1: So they had a congress, And when they called for 1104 00:59:50,480 --> 00:59:53,920 Speaker 1: the congress that's surrounded by angry army officers. More than 1105 00:59:53,960 --> 00:59:57,440 Speaker 1: one hundred and fifty people, including Jesus and Ricardo, crossed 1106 00:59:57,480 --> 01:00:00,280 Speaker 1: the line of army officers to go openly partic pat 1107 01:00:00,280 --> 01:00:04,240 Speaker 1: in a seditious congress. Ricardo is there to speak for 1108 01:00:04,240 --> 01:00:07,880 Speaker 1: a liberal student group and for his newspaper, just to 1109 01:00:07,920 --> 01:00:10,840 Speaker 1: show how different the word liberal, like what liberal meant 1110 01:00:10,880 --> 01:00:14,520 Speaker 1: in nineteen oh one Mexico to now. The Liberal Congress 1111 01:00:14,520 --> 01:00:17,480 Speaker 1: started with a quote from the anarchist Max Stirner. The 1112 01:00:17,560 --> 01:00:20,840 Speaker 1: quote is tyrants appear great because we come to them 1113 01:00:20,840 --> 01:00:26,200 Speaker 1: on our knees. Let us rise. I feel like I 1114 01:00:26,240 --> 01:00:30,000 Speaker 1: didn't actually name this episode. Liberals ain't what they used 1115 01:00:30,000 --> 01:00:35,160 Speaker 1: to be, but that's the subtext. The guy who called 1116 01:00:35,160 --> 01:00:37,760 Speaker 1: for the conference was from a wealthy family, but he 1117 01:00:37,800 --> 01:00:39,520 Speaker 1: read a lot of Marx and Bakunin, and then he 1118 01:00:39,520 --> 01:00:42,640 Speaker 1: blew all of his inherited wealth on revolution, including running 1119 01:00:42,640 --> 01:00:45,040 Speaker 1: a book club and taking care of several destitute peasants 1120 01:00:45,040 --> 01:00:47,600 Speaker 1: who had a mind for theory and practice, which is 1121 01:00:47,760 --> 01:00:50,800 Speaker 1: likely where Ricardo started reading about anarchism. Are these book clubs? 1122 01:00:51,320 --> 01:00:54,960 Speaker 1: Which is this is what you should do. If you've 1123 01:00:54,960 --> 01:00:58,560 Speaker 1: inherited a bunch of wealth. You should pay proletarian organizers 1124 01:00:58,560 --> 01:01:02,080 Speaker 1: to live and spend their money on and tools for 1125 01:01:02,120 --> 01:01:04,880 Speaker 1: revolution and social change, whatever tools are appropriate in the 1126 01:01:04,880 --> 01:01:09,960 Speaker 1: context where you live. My favorite attendee of the conference 1127 01:01:10,480 --> 01:01:15,400 Speaker 1: was a woman named Juanna Belen Guterrez de Mendoza, and 1128 01:01:15,440 --> 01:01:19,520 Speaker 1: she was indigenous. She's from the Coxcuin people. Her father 1129 01:01:19,600 --> 01:01:23,000 Speaker 1: had been a landless rural blacksmith. She didn't know her 1130 01:01:23,000 --> 01:01:26,160 Speaker 1: birth date, but she got arrested all the time, so 1131 01:01:26,200 --> 01:01:29,000 Speaker 1: the state made one up for January twenty seventh, eighteen 1132 01:01:29,040 --> 01:01:33,200 Speaker 1: seventy five. She was arrested again and again advocating for 1133 01:01:33,320 --> 01:01:36,880 Speaker 1: mine workers like her husband, and whenever she was arrested 1134 01:01:37,280 --> 01:01:39,280 Speaker 1: and asked to write down her name on the booking form, 1135 01:01:39,320 --> 01:01:45,880 Speaker 1: she wrote to Desicion Rebellion, Yeah, that's awesome. And then 1136 01:01:46,000 --> 01:01:48,720 Speaker 1: I'm also really excited because I'm very mad. I think 1137 01:01:48,760 --> 01:01:50,840 Speaker 1: people know this. I literally have the words sedition tattooed 1138 01:01:50,880 --> 01:01:54,280 Speaker 1: on my knuckles, and I got really mad about January 1139 01:01:54,280 --> 01:01:59,760 Speaker 1: sixth because of this. I'm like really fucking bitter. 1140 01:02:00,720 --> 01:02:04,680 Speaker 2: They ruin everything. Fine, you know, it's just like, come on, guys. 1141 01:02:04,440 --> 01:02:04,680 Speaker 3: I know. 1142 01:02:07,720 --> 01:02:10,920 Speaker 1: Then her husband died and she started an anarchists feminist 1143 01:02:10,960 --> 01:02:14,280 Speaker 1: paper called Vesper, which told men they better step up 1144 01:02:14,400 --> 01:02:17,000 Speaker 1: lest the women run the revolution alone. It was like 1145 01:02:17,000 --> 01:02:20,920 Speaker 1: a whole thing in like nineteenth century feminist revolutionaries. A 1146 01:02:20,920 --> 01:02:24,080 Speaker 1: lot of it was basically being like you fuck it. 1147 01:02:24,120 --> 01:02:29,000 Speaker 1: They would like play to the machismo of the culture 1148 01:02:29,000 --> 01:02:32,320 Speaker 1: they're in and be like, you fucking cowards, we're doing it. 1149 01:02:32,360 --> 01:02:34,360 Speaker 1: Fuck's wrong with you? And I've seen this in a 1150 01:02:34,360 --> 01:02:36,160 Speaker 1: bunch of different countries. I really like it. 1151 01:02:37,920 --> 01:02:40,800 Speaker 2: That's awesome. You don't want the women to run things? Yeah, 1152 01:02:40,800 --> 01:02:42,760 Speaker 2: I get them to run the revolution with you. 1153 01:02:42,960 --> 01:02:47,280 Speaker 1: Yeah. Later, she's going to join a Miliano Zapata's army 1154 01:02:47,280 --> 01:02:49,040 Speaker 1: and fight in the revolution and go to her grave 1155 01:02:49,080 --> 01:02:51,400 Speaker 1: in nineteen forty two, still fighting for land in liberty. 1156 01:02:52,360 --> 01:02:56,240 Speaker 1: She runs papers for decades. She translates Pacunan, Cropocin, and 1157 01:02:56,280 --> 01:03:03,240 Speaker 1: Prudana into Spanish. Yeah, she's at this fucking congress. Most 1158 01:03:03,280 --> 01:03:05,560 Speaker 1: of the delegates are trying to play it safe. Most 1159 01:03:05,600 --> 01:03:08,360 Speaker 1: of them are only critiquing the church or mine owners 1160 01:03:08,440 --> 01:03:12,040 Speaker 1: rather than Diaz directly, because they don't want to be killed. 1161 01:03:13,560 --> 01:03:17,400 Speaker 1: Ricardo doesn't care. He's a fucking bohemian. He takes the stage. 1162 01:03:17,440 --> 01:03:20,120 Speaker 1: He's probably wearing like a big black baggy sweater because 1163 01:03:20,120 --> 01:03:22,360 Speaker 1: that was his style at the time, and he gets 1164 01:03:22,440 --> 01:03:25,280 Speaker 1: up there and he shouts the administration of Beforeio Diaz 1165 01:03:25,360 --> 01:03:28,760 Speaker 1: is a dena FEBEs, and everyone hisses at him because 1166 01:03:28,760 --> 01:03:30,200 Speaker 1: they're like, Noah, you can't fucking say that with the 1167 01:03:30,280 --> 01:03:32,680 Speaker 1: fuck oh shit, you know, so he just yells it 1168 01:03:32,720 --> 01:03:36,160 Speaker 1: again and again, and finally the third time he fucking 1169 01:03:36,240 --> 01:03:40,120 Speaker 1: yells it, people find their courage and met a statement 1170 01:03:40,160 --> 01:03:46,320 Speaker 1: with applause and rarely like like speak truth the power, 1171 01:03:46,320 --> 01:03:48,200 Speaker 1: et cetera, et cetera, is like it's like one of 1172 01:03:48,200 --> 01:03:52,080 Speaker 1: these like watered down phrases. It's possible that in the 1173 01:03:52,120 --> 01:03:56,080 Speaker 1: single act, Ricardo Florismagon forced the ostensible opposition to the 1174 01:03:56,120 --> 01:03:58,280 Speaker 1: dictator to admit to all the world that they weren't 1175 01:03:58,280 --> 01:04:04,480 Speaker 1: an ostensible opposition, they were actually in opposition. He like 1176 01:04:04,520 --> 01:04:07,560 Speaker 1: this kind of okay, the revolution doesn't start for ten years. 1177 01:04:07,640 --> 01:04:10,560 Speaker 1: This is what makes everyone have to actually start working 1178 01:04:10,600 --> 01:04:15,760 Speaker 1: for it. It's also by shouting this to the rooftops, 1179 01:04:15,800 --> 01:04:18,240 Speaker 1: he basically sets it up that he's going to spend 1180 01:04:18,240 --> 01:04:20,040 Speaker 1: the majority of the twenty one years left in front 1181 01:04:20,040 --> 01:04:23,200 Speaker 1: of him in prison as a result of ten different convictions. 1182 01:04:23,960 --> 01:04:26,040 Speaker 1: I made up the number ten because I don't remember. 1183 01:04:26,160 --> 01:04:28,640 Speaker 1: It's a bunch of fucking convictions. I just don't want 1184 01:04:28,640 --> 01:04:33,080 Speaker 1: to be give a specific And then okay, So Regeneracion 1185 01:04:33,320 --> 01:04:36,280 Speaker 1: becomes the main liberal newspaper and it calls for the 1186 01:04:36,280 --> 01:04:39,160 Speaker 1: Constitution to be respected and for Diaz to stop bringing 1187 01:04:39,160 --> 01:04:42,840 Speaker 1: the elections, and it calls to support strikes and land reform. 1188 01:04:44,040 --> 01:04:46,080 Speaker 1: So it didn't take long for Ricardo and his brother 1189 01:04:46,160 --> 01:04:48,920 Speaker 1: Hazus to go back to jail. They were apparently the 1190 01:04:48,960 --> 01:04:52,520 Speaker 1: first newspaper there we go with first to openly criticize 1191 01:04:52,520 --> 01:04:55,160 Speaker 1: not just the actions of the government, but the legitimacy 1192 01:04:55,160 --> 01:04:58,440 Speaker 1: of the government. They're also finally covering all the stories 1193 01:04:58,440 --> 01:05:02,040 Speaker 1: of sexual violence at the State and Act did and 1194 01:05:02,080 --> 01:05:04,920 Speaker 1: it was there. Hey, this particular political boss guy is 1195 01:05:04,960 --> 01:05:07,400 Speaker 1: a fucking rapist story that got them thrown in prison. 1196 01:05:08,040 --> 01:05:10,800 Speaker 1: Several of the times that macgone and one at least 1197 01:05:10,800 --> 01:05:14,440 Speaker 1: one of his other brothers go to prison is specifically 1198 01:05:14,640 --> 01:05:20,000 Speaker 1: for calling out sexual abuse and things like that from 1199 01:05:20,120 --> 01:05:26,360 Speaker 1: the Diaz regime. So they're in jail. Fortunately they only 1200 01:05:26,360 --> 01:05:27,760 Speaker 1: got two of the brothers in jail. They have a 1201 01:05:27,800 --> 01:05:33,320 Speaker 1: third brother, so Enrique, he starts publishing the paper. Jesus 1202 01:05:33,360 --> 01:05:36,680 Speaker 1: and Ricardo write for it from jail, and while they're 1203 01:05:36,720 --> 01:05:42,960 Speaker 1: in their mother dies. Marguerita's sons got her fierceness from her. 1204 01:05:43,160 --> 01:05:45,960 Speaker 1: As far as I can tell, the government had tried 1205 01:05:45,960 --> 01:05:48,080 Speaker 1: to convince her on her deathbed to convince her sons 1206 01:05:48,120 --> 01:05:50,800 Speaker 1: to give up their activism. Basically, they're like, she's like 1207 01:05:50,840 --> 01:05:54,080 Speaker 1: fucking dying, and the government's like, look, we'll set your 1208 01:05:54,080 --> 01:05:56,200 Speaker 1: sons free and they can be with you when you 1209 01:05:56,320 --> 01:06:01,680 Speaker 1: die if you tell them to just fucking stop. Her 1210 01:06:01,760 --> 01:06:06,200 Speaker 1: quote to them is, quote, tell President Diaz that I 1211 01:06:06,320 --> 01:06:09,520 Speaker 1: choose to die without seeing my sons, and tell them this, 1212 01:06:10,040 --> 01:06:12,160 Speaker 1: I'd rather see my sons hang from a tree or 1213 01:06:12,160 --> 01:06:15,200 Speaker 1: a hanging post than for them to retract or repent. 1214 01:06:17,960 --> 01:06:18,520 Speaker 2: That's awesome. 1215 01:06:18,640 --> 01:06:22,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, she fucking goes hard.

Yeah, because she does. 1220 01:06:32,520 --> 01:06:35,360 Speaker 2: How much it means to her, to so many other 1221 01:06:35,400 --> 01:06:36,560 Speaker 2: people and to her sons. 1222 01:06:36,680 --> 01:06:39,320 Speaker 1: Yeah awesome. Yeah, this is we'll talk about a little 1223 01:06:39,320 --> 01:06:42,160 Speaker 1: bit later, but this is the revolution that the quote 1224 01:06:42,280 --> 01:06:44,000 Speaker 1: it's better to die on your feet than live on 1225 01:06:44,000 --> 01:06:48,120 Speaker 1: your knees comes from, and it just it comes again 1226 01:06:48,160 --> 01:06:53,560 Speaker 1: and again. A few days later, her two older sons 1227 01:06:53,600 --> 01:06:56,400 Speaker 1: are sentenced to two years in Bellum prison, and Bellum 1228 01:06:56,400 --> 01:06:58,360 Speaker 1: Prison is where they actually already are, but they get 1229 01:06:58,400 --> 01:07:00,800 Speaker 1: convicted there. It's a cess pit of a prison in 1230 01:07:00,800 --> 01:07:03,480 Speaker 1: a very literal way. There's no plumbing, people shit and 1231 01:07:03,560 --> 01:07:06,360 Speaker 1: overflowing holes in the ground, and it's where they throw 1232 01:07:06,480 --> 01:07:11,760 Speaker 1: like the like people who have no like, the sick 1233 01:07:11,960 --> 01:07:14,840 Speaker 1: and the homeless and the drunks and all of that stuff.

I'm not turning 1240 01:07:37,840 --> 01:07:40,000 Speaker 1: my back on any of this. I'm going to be 1241 01:07:40,000 --> 01:07:42,200 Speaker 1: a lawyer, and I'm going to marry my fiance of 1242 01:07:42,200 --> 01:07:44,400 Speaker 1: eleven years who's been fucking waiting. 1243 01:07:46,920 --> 01:07:48,520 Speaker 2: How long were they in jail for eleven years? 1244 01:07:48,720 --> 01:07:51,680 Speaker 1: No, he goes to jail a lot. They've been engaged 1245 01:07:51,720 --> 01:07:55,600 Speaker 1: for eleven years. That particular stint was like two years. 1246 01:07:56,640 --> 01:08:00,600 Speaker 1: So yeah, Jesus never becomes a radical again. He stays 1247 01:08:00,600 --> 01:08:03,560 Speaker 1: a liberal and like literally a revolutionary and he ends 1248 01:08:03,640 --> 01:08:07,560 Speaker 1: up in the government of the first There's a lot 1249 01:08:07,560 --> 01:08:10,400 Speaker 1: of different governments that happen during the revolution, and he 1250 01:08:10,480 --> 01:08:13,840 Speaker 1: ends up the government post for a little while. He 1251 01:08:13,880 --> 01:08:16,080 Speaker 1: does offer his brother's legal help over the years, but 1252 01:08:16,120 --> 01:08:18,720 Speaker 1: they would get into screaming matches about how to get 1253 01:08:18,760 --> 01:08:21,000 Speaker 1: things done.

Enrique steps up and now Ricardo and Enrique 1255 01:08:28,000 --> 01:08:30,519 Speaker 1: they take over another paper since their papers shut down 1256 01:08:30,520 --> 01:08:33,000 Speaker 1: for the moment, so they get arrested again because they 1257 01:08:33,479 --> 01:08:35,360 Speaker 1: that's what they do. They go back to bell in prison. 1258 01:08:35,920 --> 01:08:37,519 Speaker 1: A lot of the other liberals are waiting for them, 1259 01:08:37,600 --> 01:08:39,679 Speaker 1: including that rich guy with all the cool anarchy books. 1260 01:08:39,680 --> 01:08:43,360 Speaker 1: His name is Ardiaga, and Adiago was offered to be 1261 01:08:43,439 --> 01:08:46,200 Speaker 1: freed if he would just stop funding the revolution.
