She's already being divisive in a country where 60% of the people are mixed with Spaniard. She knows this will stir controversy and create sides amongst the population.

In Mexico as in America, you get what you vote for.
Without Spain, she wouldn't even exist... So maybe Spain *should * apologize.

I’m holding out for the Aztecs to apologize for human sacrifice.

Mexico should thank Spain for ending that practice.
The west needs to grow a backbone and put an end to this nonsense, otherwise it never stops. I hope Spain leads the way in this regard, Britain has crumbled when faced with similar situations. pic.twitter.com/hMk3QldVpO

Even the Aztecs were thankful for the colonizers— otherwise they’d have to put up with more human sacrifices, cannibalism, and slavery

Why is a Jewish woman telling Spaniards they have to apologize to Mexicans ? pic.twitter.com/P1B1t1af5S

Seems low priority and frankly modern Spain isn’t the same organization it was back then

Oh no Spain stopped human sacrifice from taking place! The absolute horror!!

Colonization isn't always a bad thing.
