Mexico is a country south of the United States, and many US immigrants are Mexicans, yet saying the word “Mexico” and calling something “Mexico” has become derogatory in California, so when and how did that happen?

I was born and raised in Iowa but I’ve been living in California for 13 years now and whenever I visit family and friends elsewhere I’m always hearing it’s because they want to do some evil-ass shit and California is preventing them from doing so.
For example, Iowa is hellbent on not complying with California’s law on pigs’ cage sizes. They’d rather keep locking up animals so tightly they can’t even fucking move.
Or the plastic bag law, we’re apparently so evil here in California because we don’t want any more of these fucking “recyclable” (but never accepted for recycling) bags everywhere. Some lady gave me attitude driving into an Arizona gas station because I didn’t want a whole-ass bag for two items I could easily carry and she made sure I knew “you’re not in California anymore” — thank Jesus God I can use plastic bags again!!
Literally nobody I’ve met here has ever talked about or cared about your shit hole state. Maybe improve it instead of shitting on us.
