Mexican cartels are worse than you think
In this clip, I sit down with Jacabo to dive deep into the complex issues of violence and cartel influence in Mexico. Jacabo shares his perspective on the reality behind the headlines, explaining that while some areas are indeed dangerous, others are safe and even feel more secure than certain parts of the U.S. We discuss how the media often amplifies fears about Mexico, painting a picture that's not entirely accurate. Jacabo emphasizes the regional differences—there are communities where cartel presence is a real issue, yet other regions, especially popular expat areas, remain peaceful and well-protected.
We also touch on the ongoing efforts by the Mexican government to improve security, although Jacabo is cautious about how effective these efforts will be. When I ask if Mexico could take the same approach as El Salvador in combating crime, Jacabo explains that such tactics are unlikely due to political and human rights concerns. Our conversation then explores the U.S.-Mexico relationship, with Jacabo highlighting that much of Mexico’s challenges stem from U.S. demand for drugs and the flow of American-made firearms to cartels. He points out the irony of how U.S. politicians often blame Mexico for these issues while overlooking their own role.
Jacabo urges for a cooperative approach, noting that the blame game only hinders real progress. This is a complicated issue with no easy answers, and Jacabo brings a grounded view of the situation, expressing both frustration and hope that change is possible. Check out the full interview to hear Jacabo’s nuanced take on violence, cartels, and the path forward for Mexico and the U.S.
