El hecho de que Estados Unidos exponga a las comunidades mexicanas a una contaminación peligrosa constituye un «envenenamiento legalizado de la población», afirmó Marcos Orellana, relator especial de la ONU sobre sustancias tóxicas y derechos humanos.⁠

⁠En una entrevista con The Guardian y el medio de investigación Quinto Elemento Lab, Orellana señaló que México se enfrenta a una «crisis tóxica» y se ha convertido en un «vertedero» para Estados Unidos, lo que expone a las comunidades mexicanas a una contaminación peligrosa.⁠

⁠Tras una misión de investigación de 11 días en México, Orellana señaló que encontró normas medioambientales laxas y una falta de supervisión, lo que ha permitido que la contaminación se acumule a lo largo de los años. Los contaminantes, que van desde residuos importados hasta pesticidas peligrosos, están afectando al derecho de las personas a llevar una vida saludable, afirmó.⁠

⁠El relator señaló que hay más de 1.000 lugares contaminados registrados oficialmente en el Inventario Nacional de Sitios Contaminados de México, muchos de los cuales, según él, se han convertido en «zonas de sacrificio», donde enfermedades como el cáncer y eventos médicos como los abortos espontáneos se han normalizado.⁠

⁠«Como escuché durante una reunión: vivir en una zona de sacrificio significa perder el derecho a morir de viejo», escribió Orellana en su informe.⁠

Over 200 Algerians were killed that night over 500 if you count the one killed in the following nights but thousands more were arrested (over 10000) every single ministry was an accomplice they used to public buses to transport them kept them in a stadium because the precincts were not big enough… While the people killed were men and women, the people arrested were a huge majority of men. So the following days the women and children started calling for a peaceful march to ask for their husbands and fathers to be released. This time they knew that the public opinion wouldn’t look kindly to it if they killed them. So the police instead arrested the women and sent them to a psychiatric hospitals saying they were unstable and needed to be locked inside. Luckily the director was a good man so he refused to lock the women inside the hospital saying they were perfectly sane but he also refused to let the police take them. So he waited until the police left to help the women leave back to their places.

There’s a documentary about it (I don’t remember if the psychiatric hospital was in this documentary or in an other) made by an Algerian woman in the diaspora in France. It’s filled with testimonies and a woman explains that when her husband left for the protest he told her to take care of the children and that if something happened to him she needed to make sure their children would go to school school and be good students. He survived to October 17 but was found and killed by the police on the 19th.
