You are moving the goalpost.
While what you are saying with the divorce rates is probably true but that is because a lot of men are doing things the dumb way. Sure if a westerner goes on Anastasia date to find a Botoxed Russian whore from Moscow to marry it will end badly but if he doesn't half arse things and does things the proper way it will most likely work out.
Small towns/cities, and I can only speak for Ecuador, do not tend to be as degenerate as major cities or provincial capitals. Also, the more rural you go, with the exception of certain indigenous areas, the more pleasant people tend to be moral-wise. The issue I've seen however is the younger generation, which due to the advent of smart phones is very much polluted with degenerate values and ideas. In a couple generations, assuming that the West doesn't collapse, even rural areas in Ecuador won't be safe from globohomo degeneracy, which exacerbates the more negative aspects of Latin American culture.
I concur. Colombian women, while attractive, have atrocious reputations for being whorish and manipulative. On the other hand, Colombian men outside of Colombia also have terrible reputations, though usually related to being criminals/loan sharks/thieves. I was constantly told as a child by my family members to avoid Colombians and actively mistrust them.
If even the Garden of Eden didn't have the best women, then I don't know where you would find one.
Right. I hate to say this, but Colombians are the Jews of Latin America. Colombians love their usury, even your average law-abiding one might be eager to lend you some money with worse-than-Jewish interest rates if he sees the chance, even if he's absolutely not a loan shark and has an actual job.
Really? I've literally never heard that. I don't know if it's true, so I'm not saying it's not.
Yes, I've noticed that from Peru. It's clearly a version of, as another poster who agrees with me but sees so many problems with our attempts at reasonable euro women (meaning they won't prioritize marriage or family early at all if good looking), their elation and your desperation. That's the problem with the race SMV difference; for most, it doesn't fit since it's hard to trade a better life for kids that are going to look worse and lose your rare traits overall. I'm just telling you how I feel since it's based in reality. Whether it matters is for you to decide.
This is the truth. What one needs is the combo of genes, some possible tradition to mold, and reliance on men. That's why EE is still the best, though yes it will have pitfalls and materialism. Beware of the duck faces, of course.
I disagree. There's not that much of a difference overall. The clever ones will crush you, but the quality overall is so much higher in terms of actual attractiveness and youth, you don't even play the game over here anymore, so it's irrelevant. The game's over before it started if women aren't young and/or good looking, at least for a few years.
I agree. That's why it's almost a weird duty to root for the collapse. I know it sounds weird, and of course I'm not God, but this stuff is getting so clowny it's amazing. I don't know why it's coming to my mind, but at least the Ninevites repented. Jonah was salty that they actually turned from their ways and weren't punished! Yet we talk about obvious things, and the society is so far gone, I don't even see a recognition of truth let alone turning from their ways. Control is a strange thing from on high at this point in modernity; it's pretty sickening.
Is this really true? I haven't noticed it when there but don't know and can't conclude you are wrong. I do know that a lot of the honest ones I know that came over, most of whom were in the medical field, were pretty solid people. But that's hard to disentangle from also coming because this is where the money is.
I spent 6 months in Colombia. It was very rare to find anybody under 50 that seemed like a decent human being.
I don't want to downvote you, but I don't find that to be true at all.
A lot of people have the facade of being decent until you get to know them better......
That was already why I had made a point of not going there.
Now I will definitely give it a wide berth unless I need to stop there to get to Antarctica one day.
That place might be interesting - the European space program launches its Ariane rockets from there. I met some French guys who were living and working there, they said the sea temperatures were very warm, it sounds positively tropical.
I think the European space program has fallen on hard times since SpaceX has made their old fashioned throw-away rockets unaffordable and obsolete.
Central America has always been the least developed (and this is saying something, only Haiti or the Guyanas are worse) portion of the region, and this is going back to the days of the Spanish Empire. The people that tend to come from the region are also know to be the most ignorant, in my experience, and prone to joining gangs. Also, this was and still is the backyard of big US agricultural companies (Dole, Chiquita, formally Standard Fruit and United Fruit) who have cajoled and manipulated the "republics" there since the 19th century, exacerbating the already latent corruption and poor living standards found in the region as a whole.
I agree with you, but cannot agree that it contains the most decayed societies period. I'd argue that what is found there is the same type of decay and degeneracy found in the West, the difference being that this is the Latin American flavor of it, with all that entails. Also coupled with poverty, especially in urban areas, the existence of this decay is more apparent than in Anglo America and Europe.
It's funny that you mention the 'Malicia Indigena'. In Ecuador and in other places in the rest of South America, that kind of philosophy/approach to life is called "Viveza Criolla", which supposedly comes from the example set by elites. I've also heard it called being "vivo", but usually from less educated people.
It's funny that you mention creole as part of it, as that seems to fit perfectly into the paradigm of what would be after the oligarchy, cultural setup, and admixture.
This post is late, but this is one of the best quotes I heard on the forum. "Pero solo creo en Dios" is absurdly accurate, LOL.
I'm actually not trying to be negative, just realistic. I personally think that traditional Hispanic (Spanish and Latin American) culture is great, and that there is a lot of good to be found in it. I do also think that there's certain places in the region, just like anywhere else, that are good to live in and decent enough to raise a family in.
I don't know about that, man. They pulled off the COVID hoax just fine almost everywhere, and it's hard to overstate how extreme it was, even if it wasn't as bad here as it was in the US or Australia.
Maybe in cities. In rural areas (I was visiting Ecuador during the time of the coof) literally no one cared. I went about my business in el campo no problem, only encountering masking and all that weird stuff when traveling to a large town or city, since the vast majority of people there are ignorant enough to believe the government with respect to such things (but not others! An absurd contradiction).
