By Twitter columnist GlobalismAnd the Hernan Gomezposted about what he considered the “goal” of the rally called by President Andrés Manuel López Obrador on November 27, a phrase spread on the same social network to resume the usual food, “Frutsi and Cake” that is given to them to “carry” in other events.

I wasn’t very clear about the point of March 27. Today I get it: proudly claiming truck, frutsi, and cake. Wearing it does not imply a lack of contentment, as some believe… Blessed are those who are of Frutsi and Cake because theirs will be a kingdom… pic.twitter.com/mLtZvJ56uJ

The backlash drew attention because opponents called the measure stratified when referring to what low-income people could get.

The issue is not that low-income people need transportation to demonstrate and “cake and frutsie” to avoid starvation.

Other problems:

1. Force them to participate

2. Who pays for the trip, maintenance and incentives, how much and where do they come from?
