I have many conflicting thoughts about the Zapatista reorganization effort and their current gathering in San Cristóbal. At the same time, I am hesitant to share them. I've already lost friends and been canceled due to a mild critique of the Zapatistas I wrote about a year ago.
For some reason, to suggest that the Zapatistas do not in fact shit gold and that their word is not gospel is blasphemy in radical discourse, both in the U.S. and Mexico. In preferring hagiographic treatment rather than critical engagement, nothing is accomplished, nothing is learned. What to do?
