It would if all they were wearing sombreros, mustaches and going around riding donkeys and eating tortillas?

Oh, his name is not "Juan" and he sang "I Will Always Love You" to Hernando when he should be singing "La Cucaracha".

There are rumours that Netflix have renewed Sense8, but will announce season 2 on 8/8 since that date is significant to the sensates and the cult following the show has spawned. Please be true.

Eating tortillas is now representing Mexican CULTURE?
First of all learn the difference, they are representing Mexicans not Mexican CULTURE, you know what let's start here... the storyline doesn't even tell you about Mexican Culture (A gay man actor with money trying come out of the closet?? really?? Is that your idea of representing their culture? that's NOT Mexican exclusive boo) I'm not discrediting the show cuz to begin with "representing a country's culture" wasn't even the point of the show.
And I can't at Dancefloor just leaving it there with a "DragT it" and not fight for his "arguments"

Can you read? Your response makes it seems like you cannot. I was obviously referring to stereotypes which apparently are the only way to represent how people live in Mexico and its culture, according to you.
I asked how it DOESN'T, yet you still haven't provided an answer. I guess they aren't showing us a little bit of South Korean culture and their lifestyle with Sun, Indian with Kala, Kenyan with Capheus, etc. It seems you haven't paid attention at all and all you've seen on Lito is a gay actor struggling to come out, which says a lot about you, not the show.
Have you ever been to Mexico? The worst of it all, is that you are PERUVIAN.

The storyline doesn't represent Mexican culture as I implied in both of my posts that's it , how is that hard to understand?
And what is even the point that you call me out for being PERUVIAN in that derogatory tone? You are disgusting.
Does that even matter in the first place? We both as Latinos (Mexicans or Peruvians) get the same treatment when it comes to raccism. Which also was the main topic that started all of this. Seems like you are the one that can not read.

You are being so extra. That's not even the point of the show so it doesn't matter if they show a little bit more about their cultures, I'm not discrediting the show for god's sake!

There's no way Netflix will cancel the show. They're still pushing the show through Q&A panels, promo videos, social media etc.
Why go through so much effort just to cancel a show? And after ONE season?

For the third time in a row, how it doesn't? It's a very simple question, yet you seem to have trouble answering it. The way you talked about it made it seem like you have a very strong opinion on how it does not yet you refuse to provide an answer.
Don't let your insecurities shine through this, this has nothing to do with "racism". You, as a Peruvian should know better than to judge Latin cultures based on stereotypes. I never mentioned the point of the show was to showcase only the countries and their lifestyle, duh. But it's obviously an strong point when you're dealing with people from different parts of the world (cultures), even if it's just fiction. Yet you were quick to say Lito's plot doesn't reflect at all how we live in Mexico.
Since you didn't answer my question, I am gonna assume you have never been to Mexico. I am Mexican, so unlike you, I know what I am talking about. So how about you keep your stupid full of ignorance and stereotypes remarks about how Mexicans' culture and lifestyle are to yourself?

How can I respond with arguments when you haven't given none? You said "that's not Mexican culture", how is it not?
I'm Mexican and I never doubted the authenticity of the characters as people living in Mexico, our traditions and costumes associated with Mexican culture are not something we do every freaking day. Especially not in big cities like Mexico City. Life is pretty westernized just like all of North America. It's like saying Nomi and Will don't represent American culture because it's not the 4th of July every day. n.

Ya te di mis explicaciones pero parece que te gusto evitarlos con el fin de hacerme lucir mal y dar un tono mas agresivo a tus posts. Haz dado mas vueltas al tema como nadie, que insoportable.
Creo que a lo largo de mi vida e estado familiarizado con México o al menos tengo la idea gracias a lo que ellos mismo nos dan ya sea por sus novelas o sus shows televisivos por que como digo es la imagen que ellos nos dan.
Ser gay en la industria y tratar de ocultarlo/salir del armario no es algo que pasa solo en MÉXICO porque eso pasa en todo el mundo en todas partes simple como eso.
Se que eso no es SOLO de lo que va su historia solo lo estoy resumiendo por que a lo largo esa es la idea que te da.
Lo que me dice a mi el show es que SI si nos han mostrado a nosotros, el publico, que son Mexicanos pero su historia no me dice nada acerca de su CULTURA. Ese a sido mi punto de visto al comienzo de todo esto.
Ahora dime tu como su historia representa la cultura mexicana? ya que tanto lo apoyas. Y lee bien hablo de la HISTORIA de Lito no lo que esta a su alrededor? No te bases en que llevan el acento Mexicano o que se van a ver la lucha libre, ya lo dejaste claro aparte no hablo de eso, hablo de SU historia. En que parte de su historia muestran la "cultura" mexicana?

Esa fue mi pensamiento desde el principio. Pero claro te dejas llevar y sacar conclusiones acerca/cuando lees solo uno de mis posts.
Y si quieres seguir esta conversación aprende a como tratar las situaciones, no todo el tiempo tienes que estar a la defensiva cuando otro no tiene el mismo punto de vista que tu.
