if Mexico invaded Texas claiming it as some historic part of the Mexican empire which speaks Spanish and is aligned in culture, sing me up to fight to the death for Texas. There’s nothing I wouldn’t give for my State/Republic, and no amount of territory I would be willing to concede. Fuck the US or any other hegemonic power. Chalk me up as a statistic if you will, but I’ll die knowing I’m defending a place and a people and a way of life I believe in
