  • Why Latin American Culture is So Dysfunctional

    ByPrimary Researcher

    … essentially everything except Latin American culture itself. Latin Americans are presented as victims who have not had any hand in developing or perpetuating the dysfunctional societies they inhabit, and nor is it acknowledged that they bring with them any dysfunctional characteristics when they immigrate to a European-based country.
