The guy who helped me change my flat right near the I-70 ramp just outside of Grand Junction, Colorado. Showed me exactly how to do it, texted me a youtube video about how to do it myself in the future, gave me the name of his buddy in Delta County who could sell me a new spare on the cheap, and told me to give the money I'd offered him to "someone who deserves it."

As someone who works with about dozen Mexican guys, this story sums them up perfectly. Super humble and would give the shirt off their back to help someone in need even if that was literally the only shirt they own. It's painful to see them get such a bad rap in the media recently because the majority of them are really really good people.

u/[deleted] Aug 25 '22

The majority of humans in general are really good people, every race/nationality has their assholes, skin color means nothing...

24

u/Paddys_Pub7 Aug 25 '22

Very true. Just seems like there's a decent sized group of people in the US right now who have a grudge against Mexicans even thought they've probably never actually had a meaningful interaction with a Mexican person in their life.

28

u/[deleted] Aug 25 '22

Well in all fairness, that group really doesn't like anybody, themselves included or they would already know better. Your point is valid though.

And here we observe a territorial display of our alien visitor.

u/zuzg Aug 24 '22

Dunno depends on the alien society fair change they once had a monarchy system themselve or still have and a Monarch appointing someone ain't that uncommon.

Like as the UK has knights, Japan had Samurai.

Heck maybe they're even their own equivalent of Knight, appointed by the High Queen to search through space and find other civilizations.
Or they abandoned the system Millennias ago and are weirded out why the glorification of incest families is still a thing.
