indigeneity and nationality are two different concepts that have nothing to do with each other.

this can range from indigenous Oaxacans who are US citizens to Mexican citizens who are settlers who murder indigenous people in Mexico to steal their land.

Mexico is a settler colonial state created by Spanish genociders.

The Mexican ruling class is still largely of european descent. It’s well established that lighter skin correlates with status in Mexico.
