Thank you so much for the mention and the sats!

What came to my mind when creating the Mexico territory was that a lot of good content is still being posted in Reddit, but unluckily that place is turning quickly as woke as the opening ceremony of the current Olympic Games.

Also, I’m currently in Austin sorrounded by the people at PlebLab which are all super based. Back in Acapulco I don’t have that experience everyday. Sometimes I’d like to discuss topics for which you’d need to be well-versed the latest happenings in Mexico: how the president’s whim to build a refinery is a blessing (in disguise) while his new train track is a failure, how absurd electricity prices are in the country and what we could do about them, or how yet another famous person from the state of Jalisco turned out to be gay.

(That last one actually comes from the running gag that all men born in Jalisco, like my co-founder, are gay… I hope he reads this message… And serves as an example of the kind of banter that I just don’t feel explaining to non-Mexicans unless they specifically ask.)

Then, I believe that @k00b nailed it with the name. When he first told me ‘you can claim a territory’ something clicked in me: we are territorial beings, particularly men, and the lineage of Spanish conquistadores that composes most of my DNA made me straighten my spine, pull out my chest, look at the horizon and say ‘I’m gonna claim some territory.’

So, going back to the diagram, that’s the meaning and the thought for me… Possibly quite entangled.

Now, as for the action… I’ve always been the kind of bloke that when he sees something meme-able and relatable, he’s just gonna listen to the reptilian side of his brain and go for it.

I envision many more specialised territories in SN as more and more people abandon the wokeness of the competition.
