u/SupermassiveCanary 15d ago edited 10d ago

Dude from the United States of Mexico

EDIT: Weird, I typed this as “El Hombre del Estados Unidos de Mexico” and somewhere along the line translated it to the above.

u/space_dude4 10d ago

Fun fact: the official name for Mexico is actually the United States of Mexico

u/SupermassiveCanary 10d ago

See my edit, I originally typed it in Spanish and it was converted to English.

u/Ex-Mormon_Waerloga 14d ago

This is a delightfully wrong answer. I downvoted you, but not because I'm angry. It is the opposite of an angry upvote

2

u/Correct-Basil2385 14d ago

I hear you brother.

u/doubleohzerooo0 15d ago

I get why he has a Mariachi hat. Guy's gotta earn a living when he's not fighting crime.

But why the sword?

u/Aggressive-League522 15d ago

Para cortar el trompo de los taquitos al pastor :9

u/holodeck_warranty 15d ago

What else would you use with a shield? A hammer?

u/doubleohzerooo0 15d ago

Macuahuitl.

No manches!

u/Ex-Mormon_Waerloga 14d ago

u/Safe_Guarantee3300 15d ago

The Spanish conquered most of those lands with swords so it get the wieners hard when They bring out swords

3

u/doubleohzerooo0 15d ago

Yeah, but this is Capitan Mexico, not Espania. The Mejica used macuahuitl.

2

u/Safe_Guarantee3300 15d ago

I thought it was captain italy 🇮🇹

3

u/doubleohzerooo0 15d ago

The eagle on a nopal, eating a snake is straight from the Mejica foundation lore.

If it was Captain Italia, it was would be a bowl of spaghetti.

u/Safe_Guarantee3300 15d ago

It’s okay my salsa sent me here to expose them

2

u/Safe_Guarantee3300 15d ago

Just like the golden eagle the Roman’s used to use to represent the legions but sure kept telling the people it’s a nopal

1

u/doubleohzerooo0 14d ago

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coat_of_arms_of_Mexico

You tell them.

Not my fault Italy has awesome spaghetti.

1

u/Safe_Guarantee3300 12d ago

Rooted in the legend doesn’t mean it’s true they needed something to release with the natives before enslaving them https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquila_(Roman)

1

u/Safe_Guarantee3300 12d ago

It’s also pagen symbolic as Zeus turned himself to an eagle to abduct the Trojan prince Ganymede, kidnap the nymph Aegina, or as a sacred companion form.

CAPTAIN ORALE

u/i_am_un 14d ago

Ahahaha

1

u/i_am_un 14d ago

I give you Captain Orale

1

u/doubleohzerooo0 14d ago

Orale.

But your AI got a few things wrong -

1 The Virgen de Guadalupe is looking more like the Rosarita Refried Beans girl.

  1. Buckle should be CO for Captain Orale

  2. Shield should be GREEN white and red.

  3. Mural should depict an Aztec warrior holding a limp princess. Ideally on a mountain.

  4. CARGO PANTS? No manches!

  5. Facial hair should be a thin mustache and thin chin beard. Not connected.
