Everything to do with the USA's own Imperial Backyard. From hispanics to the originary peoples of the americas to the diasporas, South America to Central America, to the Caribbean to North America (yes, we're also there).

Post memes, art, articles, questions, anything you'd like as long as it's about Latin America. Try to tag your posts with the language used, check the tags used above for reference (and don't forget to put some lime and salt to it).

Here's a handy resource to understand some of the many, many colloquialisms we like to use across the region.

Why is it that the stereotype is that liberals are smug, fart-sniffing know-it-alls?

As true as it may be, it pales in comparison to how libertarians genuinely delude themselves into thinking that everyone is braindead except for them. Ayn Rand named her ideology “objectivism” because she is that incapable of entertaining the idea she might not be omniscient.
