The zapatistas live almost in a rural society except they have electricity and some internet connection, they are not suppressed because they live like that and don’t represent a real threat, if they ever were to industrialize they would get fucked up in less than the blink of an eye. While I appreciate their fight and resistance and would take their government any day over the current one dominating Mexico, I don’t think they’re a super example since (even though things have improved in their government in comparison to capitalist one) they still have vast numbers of people living under poverty, and they’re going to keep it that way because they lack the organization and resources to improve it.
The decision is not for Mexico’s capitalist government to make, but for the USA, if they’re not trying to actively destroy it as with any other ML government that took power there’s a reason for it. I’m all for it for them to do it that way if they want, but they won’t be able to advance while having so much pressure from the outside.
