Why Is It So Dangerous To Tell The Truth In Mexico?

“Sol Prendido” for Borderland Beat




Stop for a second, because what you are about to see—there are those who would prefer it didn't exist. May 3rd: World Press Freedom Day. A day that sounds like an established right—yet in Mexico, it is lived out amidst grave danger. 


Today, press freedom is commemorated in a country where telling the truth can cost you your life; where stories vanish if no one steps up to tell them. 


"I want my daughter because she was admitted here, and she has to be released from here." 


Disappearances, corruption, violence—realities that those in power often attempt to conceal


"Tomorrow marks three months of this corruption that kills regarding the derailment of the interoceanic train."


But when someone decides to tell the story, everything changes. 


"The corruption witnessed here is truly staggering—and it was all captured on camera."


For the truth doesn’t simply appear on its own; it is investigated, it is documented, and today—more than ever—it is shared. 


"They took them alive. We want them back alive." 


This May 3rd isn’t just about journalists. 


"The Izaguirre Ranch in Techutlán, Jalisco: it isn’t merely a criminal extermination site. It also bears signs that the very notions of truth and justice are being systematically eradicated."


It’s about everyone who chooses not to remain silent. 


"Even if it’s just a tiny bone—a single fragment to hold onto—it means knowing that they are there. Why are a man and a woman so weary? They are the parents of those caught up in the reality we are currently enduring."


It’s about those who transform their pain into a public outcry. 


"Maricela Escobedo had become a social activist, demanding justice from the authorities."


Press freedom is not merely a concept; it is the force that renders the truth visible. 


"I came to confront the government. We do not want their dictatorship—we do not want it.”


In view of this, the truth must be told, every single day. What do you think? Without a free press, would we know everything that’s going on, or just what they want us to know?

  1. This is also true about America and speaking bad about its politicians and wealthy people like Epstein's friends.
    Also true about not admitting many if not most wealthy are and have always been heavy drug users and more so those living in big cities!

    2. Yeah, American reporters are being murdered, kidnapped, disappeared and threatened on an almost weekly basis!

      Most self-censor, paid off by criminal cartels and many seek asylum in Mexico.

      All because of Epstein!

      You’re not stupider because you’re already Mexican, you’re an immoral, low IQ, violent people incapable of logical thought and civilized conduct.

    3. Who was murdered for talking about politicians, the wealthy or whatever the Hell 66IQ point you're shoehorning in your mentioning of Epstein?

      It's crazy that TDS has found its way onto the borderland beat comment section.

  4. Report, but keep your name to yourself...azteca noticias is infested by the limes of Aristegui who has forgotten the persecutions she suffered courtesy of FECAL, genarco gar ia luna and epn, official informative "noticieros" are mad with motena givernme ts be ause they are ot getting paid millions of dollars worth of chayote, blaming President and anybody they find missing on the chayote line where they want to collect their millions of dollars, no peisos.
    All the motherfuckers with a little name as journos want to extort or campaign against the "criminal narco-government" and ma y het paid ot expect to get paid by ricardo salinas pliego who refuses to pay his 2 billion dollar taxes he owes to the mexican treasury. More to the point, they toe the line of VOX and the PP from spain and other worldly extreme right wing organizations.

  6. I’ve been getting on BB for like 15 years. The comments section used to be people sharing info and trying to give some insight into a serious topic. It was a good community where you could learn something. Now it’s just a shame. Bunch of idiots and nuffys. I liked it a lot better before.

    1. I'm sorry BB, can't go in reverse to the past. The culture and environment has made, teenyboppers, down and out, the deported, meth addicts hang around BB and comment weird ass statements. Some use it like Facebook (Rubio NYC aka Red panties, White Punk, emagulated White boy). Then you have Nuffy talking about, the sex toys his wife Buffy uses.

    2. This is a frivolous website whose stories are published in accordance with their political leaning, if you come here for insight, you’re not very smart.

  7. The irony of censorship Swol posting about not being able to tell the truth is hilarious. You probably won't see this comment but it might make it through if he's busy mainlining or freebasing his hyper-copium before more projection . What a sissy.

  8. Swol, why can't you respond to your emails? Baby back biotch.
