Kurt Hackbarth, host of Soberanía: The Mexican Politics Podcast, exposes Mexico’s so-called Gen Z protests as a staged, astroturfed destabilization campaign. He breaks down the march, from the near absence of actual youth to violent scenes in the Zócalo, staged for international consumption — prompting Trump to say he’d be “okay” with airstrikes and the US embassy to promise intervention “if Mexico wants it.” Hackbarth reveals the forces behind it, from Ricardo Salinas Pliego’s Elektra Group to far-right networks like The Atlas Network and La Derecha Diario, and explains what it means for Mexico’s political moment. #breakthroughnews
