Tips for an American visiting Mexico City?

Hey Jow Forums, I’m in a bit of a predicament. Maybe some of you guys can help me out here.

>be me
>American college student
>Politically I am right-wing, but my parents and entire family are shitlibs through and through.
>my parents know about our disagreements, and they hate me for it. The basically think I’m a fascist. (I mean I am, but I’ve only ever presented myself as a MAGA Alt-Lite supporter.)
>I came back from school this week for thanksgiving. I’ve been going to school far from where I’m originally from, so I haven’t seen my family in sometime.
>spending some time with my parents, thought we’d end up in another argument about politics at thanksgiving dinner, but we manage to steer clear the whole evening. >feels good man. I hate arguing with them.
>eventually, as things are rapping up for the evening and relatives are going home, my mother mentions a trip to me and my siblings.
>says she and our father have been wanting to go to Mexico City for sometime as a family, and how they’ve booked plane tickets for the two of them and all us kids in the spring.
>”uhhhhh... tf”

What should I do guys? The thought of going to Mexico with my liberal family is freaking me out. I’m white as can be, I don’t want to go to a country because my parents want to signal how cultured they are, and then die at the hands of some orc fuckers. I wish i could say no to them, but for reasons I can’t get into, I’m not in a position to do so.

Can any MexiBros or Anons who have been to Mexico, specifically Mexico City, give me any advice on how to survive a week in this country? What are safe places to visit? Where are the areas I should avoid? I may not be able to get out of this trip, but I’ll be able to influence my parents somewhat in terms of the trip itinerary.

Thx bros

>inb4 get beheaded

You're how old? You can't tell your parents your not going to fucking Mexico City?

I mean, they already paid for the plane tickets right? might as well check out this shithole filled with faggots, hipsters, homeless, assholes and niggers.

I was just there for three months. It wasn’t bad. Where are you staying? I was in Polanco/Santa Fe/Reforma mostly. Never did I feel that I was in danger. Everybody I worked with spoke English. Hire a driver, your American currency is useless down there, and get a Mexican burnerphone. You’ll get charged up the ass if you try to use data down there with a US carrier.

Yea, that’s pretty much why I can’t say no. But do you have any suggestions. I know I’m staying in the hipster section. How can I avoid niggers/spics as best I can?

Not sure yet, whatever the name of the Hipster district is.

You had less fags and hipsters than my city. I will admit the homeless people was like I’ve never seen before but they never did anything but ask for spare change or sleep for 18 hours a day.

You will be fine, just stay off the streets past 10pm. Also avoid public transit you will get shanked. Use taxis, theyre everywhere and for the most part dirt cheap. Make sure to negotiate everything you can get most prices reduced by at least 25%

You're a seditious cuck and a fucking pussy at the same time. I hope you get dysentery from "American" food you ate trying to avoid local cuisine.

Stay in Reforma and Polanco if you can. Most of the poorest people you see in CDMX don’t even live there. They live in Estado Mexico and drive or take the bus to the city for work. The two times I saw police with machine guns were because of protestors (which is common as fuck and nothing happens) and for a Pumas soccer game. There were like 200 cops outside the stadium on horseback, it was insane. Hire a driver when necessary. The rules of the road down there make no fucking sense and the mass transit is iffy. The great thing about Mexico City is there are parks everywhere and those are usually safe during the day and full of food stands and artist. The pollution is real. I was coughing up black phlegm my first week.

To be fair, I ate the local shit and got violently sick once. Luckily the pharmacies down there will sell anything for cheap and I got fixed up in a matter of days.

You won't die. Worst case scenario you can redpill your family

Good tip, thx.

Yea public transit in almost any part of the world at this point is going to be crawling with criminals and niggers.

Yea, I’ve heard great things about the public parks. When it comes to the air quality, I could always bring some medical masks I presume. Also, what do you think about the national parks they have? Seem like there’s some good places to go hiking an hour outside of the city as well

Never ever use an ATM in public. Even inside a bank is unsafe because somebody may be watching you and follow you outside to mug you. Keep your wallet in your front pocket. Taxis can be iffy because of the language barrier. If you had to use mass transit, the buses are okay but only during non-rush hour.

I hope and pray they see the light one day.

Who the fuck wants to go to Mexico City on vacation? Seriously. There is either something wrong with you or your family but most likely both.

Hiking is iffy because you’re isolated. I got warned by a qt Mexican girl because I asked the same thing. Try to find a tour/group to be with. Power in numbers.

just stay inside this circle and you'll be fine

>give me any advice on how to survive a week in this country?

don't buy drugs, hire prostitutes ( some of them are cartel's snitches ) and eat your frijoles

>What are safe places to visit?
Mexico city only got Polanco, Condesa, Reforma, the rest smells like sewer, it's full of smog.

>Where are the areas I should avoid?
You are going to one of the biggest cities in the world, filled with shitskins, some of them would want to be your friend and show you their favorite dishes but tell them to fuck off and only eat where this guy eats --> youtube.com/channel/UCuPOQ6ABnU3WQ5dCXEomuKA

There are many right wing Mexicans in Mexico city, too bad they are quite ashamed to admit it. There are even pro-Trump supporters, but they are affraid to show it off because Mexico city is the most degenerate shithole in this country.

Fuck off, we're full.

In all honesty it’s not that bad as long as you don’t fuck with anyone or do stupid shit you’re fine. Most Mexicans appreciate White people since they are usually nice. It might be possible you will get stopped by a cop for no other reason then they want you to give them money so that they let you go.

The parks are gorgeous. I was shocked how green the city was considering the pollution. When you say you’re going to be in the Hipster area, I’m guessing you’re talking about Coyoacán. That’s a safe area full of restaurants and a really nice park. Lots of starving artist live there.

Thank you, I appreciate the you putting a map together for me like this. Ill make sure every restaurant my parents want to go to is within this circle.

>ever considering taxis when uber exists

Hmm, hadn’t thought of it that way. This is “La Marquesa” Forrest park, a drives away the city. This is one of the spots I’d been looking into.

>Fuck off, we're full.
Full of Central Americans. We appreciate your sacrifice, amigo. Even if it's against your will.

Don’t drink the water

Don't use the metro. The pickpockets there are legendary

Damn shame. Shocking that Nexici doesn’t have a baser right wing movement at the moment. How many whites are there? I’ve heard they are 10% or so if the overall population, but I can’t find anything from the census.

Mexican*

Well, that’s good to know. That cop info is some 3rd world bullshit though lmao.

The red buses? I thought those were pretty nice. The older and smaller green buses looked way more sketchy.

You're full of us, don't forget your roots Panchito.

Forgot to include picture.

I’ll put that on my list. Thx user

it makes you forget

>Panchito
Cool word. Thanks for the vocab lesson, mijo.

Tell a driver to take you to pic related. Comfy park, wonderful bakery, good restaurants and an helado shop on the same block. It’s in the Coyoacán neighborhood.

if we're talking about chill places then valle de bravo its a nice place too, lots of things to do there

My whole family were shitlibs too. I lost them all this thanksgiving to a tragic axe incident after arguing politics about Trump

Anyway, Mexico is a shit hole. Don’t go, otherwise you’ll end up in a 30 second webm of your face getting cut off and then have it posted on here

General rule of thumb, if there’s a Starbucks nearby, you’ll be good. I wish I could remember the taqueria this lengua taco can be found at. It was kino.

>travel thousands of miles
>go to starbucks

I’m not telling him to go to Starbucks, but if one is nearby the neighborhood isn’t a dump. Pic related is better than Starbucks, historic, and a fraction the price.

Well, shit.

Thanks for letting me know about the Star bucks thing. And looks like I’ll have to check out this Cafe El Jarocho as well

bring dirty bob-omb and an hero yourself for the cause

I’ll look into it!

there are right wing movements, but not really much heard of. whites? don't know... but yeah, it's like 10%

I guess it doesn’t matter since Mexico isn’t a white country, but just in general, how is the nationalist/conservative scene doing in Mexico? Is there a viable path for a Trump-like (better yet, a Bolsonaro-type) figure to emerge there?

You can't, this is exico, if you want Whitenes you should go to Ensenada.

That is babby tier, Capital cities are always first world tier, even in shitholes.

As far as grocery shopping goes, Mexico City has Costco and Sam’s Club. Superama is a very nice grocery store chain down there too.

actual president have a lot of nationalistic plans for mexico, he just want us to mind our business, build some railroad to the mayan ruins, ignore the people that says he's maduro 2.0, maduro fucked his country by not investing in other things but oil.

Well that’s good to know. I know AMLO is a leftist but he’s very populist and protectionist, so I hope he does well for your country.

Why would you be scared of going to Mexico City?!? What a fag. Plan on moving there permanently in a few years.

Are you actually afraid like a little bitch to visit one of the largest cities in the world?

That's Metrobus. Metro is the orange train system.

AMLO is redpilling all of Mexico, specially the uneducated ( the people who voted for him ). We have 6 years with this guy and by the end of his administration, PRI will rule again

It's good that you're going back.

Actually, Yes. I am concerned that going to the country with the highest murder rate among American tourists may or may not be putting my life and the lives of my family at risk.

My last bit of advice for you. Try new food but don’t go overboard like I did. You WILL get rotavirus. You’ll be miserably sick for 3-5 days. I didn’t follow the advice of one of my co-workers but he ate one Pepto-Bismal every day for a week. Eventually your stomach will get assimilated. If you go to a restaurant and the ice is clear, you can use that ice for your drink. That means it was made with purified water. Don’t fall for the Argentinian steak house meme. They’re overpriced and not as good as an American steak house. Pic related in pancita. You’ll need to build up a tolerance before you eat shit like this. For what it’s worth, my favorite cheap beer down there as Victoria. A lot of people drink Indio but I didn’t care for it.

Lol stay away from the metro. Unless you’re late to the airport it’s a no no. Streets are full of people everywhere. Put you money on one back pocket while you put your wallet on the other buttpocket that way you confuse criminals into stealing a wallet with no money. Always leave your passport in safe locked. Don’t have a room safe? Reeee. Stay in nice neighborhoods like Polanco. I recommend palacio de hierro if you have the $$

>. I am concerned that going to the country with the highest murder rate among American tourists

I'll need a source on that, I always thought it was some North Mexican city with the highest murder rate for American tourists. If you're so afraid, go to San Miguel de Allende, it's like 15% American/Canadian retirees.

Well that’s great to know. Godspeed brother.

eat tacos de suadero

>I’m white as can be
prep lube for all senpai members

As long as you dont stay in Tijuana you are good. That place right now is a shithole with all the inmigrants.

There are some amazing places in mexico and good food. I recommend to just to and have fun.

Ya, dont

Back off Roberto

Gotch-ya. I’ve screencapped this.

The food really does sound amazing though, I got to say. What’s the dish in pic related?

No, i mean the subway. The train is always crammed with people and your pockets will be emptied with surgical precision.

Oh yeah, I never used the subway. I was warned in advance.

It’s a soup that they eat in the morning, or really any time of day, called pancita. It’s pretty good but pozole is safer if you have a hang up about eating strange cuts of meat. I had a great time while I was down there. The pyramids are cool, the churches like Basilica and the one in Zocalo are cool. My only regret was not checking out all the museums. I ran out of time and there are too many to count.

That’s cool. I may be iffy about Mexico City but I’ve certainly always been quite the foodie. A soup like that looks right up my ally.

based Chiapas del Sur

>my parents want to signal how cultured they are
>Where are the areas I should avoid?
Go to a place called "Tepito" if you want them to get redpilled. Avoid mexico city, it is trash. Go somewhere else.

>Is there a viable path for a Trump-like (better yet, a Bolsonaro-type) figure to emerge there?
After AMLOCO finish his term and bankrupts Mexico, perhaps.

t. naive chairo. Enjoy hunting for dogs and rats to fill your stomach at the end of his term.

AMLOCO is a senile commie. Our currency will suffer even more as soon he starts the gibs.

>PRI will rule again
El pri and morena will be gone by then.

Just remember the phrase Basado y rojopastillado if you see a MAGA hat.

Pretty much this.

Don't be a faggot OP. Mexico City is fine in the tourist parts. You will be fine.

Mexico has hipsters?!

yes, they're called chairos

Took a cruise with my family like 5 years ago. We went to cozemel and it was pretty obvious that shit was going down, when we reached the town there were army lads in trucks mounted with .50 cals stationed at all the road exits
My mom also almost bought a bong thinking it was a fish tank bubbler
It's pretty comfy, I bought a really cool hammock and a cool finger painting thing, lost them in the Harvey floods last year tho

That map is bs, there are many parts outside that map that are pretty safe and beautiful, also a few parts in that map that are dangerous as fuck.
If you go downtown it's overall safe for tourists, just be extremely careful about pickpocketing there.

Is red bus is called metrobus and it's also full of thieves, they're usually women. Be careful with them.

Imagine being such a cuck you still let your parents tell you what to do and then come on Jow Forums and larp about not being a cuck

Jesus Christ why would you go there out of all the amazing places in Mexico to see?

Dont do stupid shit and you'll be fine, also enjoy the best tacos in the fucking world.

1- don't

In mexico city, yes. That city doesn't feel like Mexico specially in richest areas.

Guaranteed this cucked up gringo will come back an SJW calling for an end to ICE

Best taco stands are on the strip Eat some after you get drunk just don't go anywhere alone or fuck without a condom on

la condesa is literally paved with dog shit.
