"Mexican" in this context refers to the country not the race, so it would be more appropriate to compare the name of this software product to "Comfortable Israeli Sofa", "Comfortable Canadian Sofa", "Comfortable Moroccan Sofa", etc.

MEXICANS ARE NOT A RACE?
Really? And, what college professor fed you that line of falsehood?
Look at this (It's 300 years Old and it Proves THAT ALL OF YOU DO NOT HAVE ANY CLUE WHAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT:
If you're so convinced that using racial slurs is absolutely innocent and it conjures up this much rhetorical nonsense; "You Win"...
But, I have my own rights to free speech as well, and I have to convey an issue that affects every Mexican household in the U.S.
In the 1930's when there was no middle class and both white, black, and Chinese men emigrated to California for hard labor in the San Joaquin Valley (which still produces 40% of U.S. Agricultural produce to this day)... They were angry to see that they had actual competition; The Mexicans! They knew the land, they worked faster and harder in arduous conditions and NEVER F****** COMPLAINED. They had been favored by the ranchers before Oklahoma lost its ability to grow because of environmental destruction, and for White men with white families and white mouths to feed "The grapes of wrath" provides a pathetic glimpse of real life before any of us was even born.
No that I gave you the constants to this equation; it shouldn't be Rocket Science to realize what happened next and just like Black men were accused of Laziness, Cocaine usage, and false accusations of rape. Mexicans, most of whom lived in California or whose families owned property and held citizenship after the Spanish-American war found themselves being deported back to Mexico, a land they never been to but had been assigned as there country of origin regardless of American Birth Certificates and the newly distributed Social Security Cards were a rarity. I know this happened, because our grandparents each had to find a way back to their homeland "The United States".
Once they reunited and returned to their homes, eminent domain laws and even Jim Crow laws were in affect throughout California at an increasing rate; This still did not prevail. Our grandparents used Marijuana leaves soaked in rubbing alcohol for homeopathic treatments...and from the mouth of my late grandfather, Leonardo I, "White and Black men started to stuff it in opium pipes and suddenly realized you could make a Marijuana cigarette, now paving the way for a 50 Billion Dollar commodity. At the time, Cocaine and Heroin had already ruined our country's integrity, so even though Marijuana had the minor effects (including the munchies) it was outlawed by our government as a lethal and penalty prone device to try another legal attempt not for deportation, rather incarceration. Most mexican households had Milpas, and each grew Aloe Vera, Yerba Buena (Mint), Maize, and Marijuana for family use and remedy. White households were slums along the old route 99, and jealousy found its way into the hearts of the "Okeys"; Subpoena postings were illegally sent to Farmers across the state.
Today, our memory of this as a country, takes the idea of Marijuana smoking as "Mexico's Main Foreign Relations Struggle", and we easily forgot all that took place in this time period.
The Mexican is an anthropological idea, with deep roots in drug trafficking, gang violence, drug sales and the most famed Lazy-Pot-smokers. The only reason Marijuana was ever outlawed had nothing to do with racketeering at irs time, but to ensure a loose end, our country sent men to jail because of homeopathic uses of it.
Finally, there is a deep rooted reason why Mexicans are associated with laziness, marijuana use, and "white slavery". Since we have an ethnic and racial identity that harkens back to the idea that Mexicans are high at all times, in recent years this has been a slap in the face. Since, we represent a large majority of those who are first to enlist for US armed forces, work jobs that no white or black men refuse, or are literally over-qualifying for jobs Mexicans are paid [happily] the absolute minimum wage for work that literally kills us... And no white Anglo-Saxon protestant American citizen is ever going to even apply for. So, Mexicans (who you state are some type of salid bowl of different races) are NEVER going to "Chill" about being labeled "Lazy"... Because we are not and this is WHERE ALL OF YOU MISS THIS OBVIOUS notion:
Laziness was used to undermine Mexicans as a whole, yet you state we are this salad toss of Races.
How dare you?
In the 1600's Mexico's lands became Spain's stolen silver, and a new standard for currency. A rush of greed brought Blue eyes abd Blond hair to the region and they brought brown eyed Black African Slaves as well as Filipino and Lebanese refugees during Spain's war with France. They raped our grandmothers and slaughtered our grandfather's in in order to develop European infrastructure in the new world. UNLIKE AMERICA, the indigenous women were considered exotic and a menagerie of identities emerged: La Casta España or the Spanish Caste was implemented throughout the country to control who could vote and hold property.
The caste system predated the U.S. and any of its burgeoning ideas, so it was the best they could thrive; by mixing races, and making the caste system obsolete. We are not like the U.S., who considered the indigenous savages. Any Mexican can have a DNA test with shocking and important results: for instance, my mother has blue eyes but her hair is blonde but it is "kinky' and she visits African American Hair professionals to keep it straight. My father has a African skin complexion that he shares with my sister's, but I am as white as a ghost. I have other family members with more examples of an anomaly that puts everything said about this "naming convention" a racist slur that you defend.
The Mexican Ethnicity and Culture is considered the most recent addition to the pool of Racial identities on this planet. We have never been called a Melting Pot. That happened long ago, and regardless if what you think or feel 2 things have made precedence here: 1) American and European Whites have no Historical knowledge of a country that has as much history as the pyramids in Giza. 2) Mexicans are considered by their skin color by Americans, but Mexicans consider themselves more than the color of thier skin and now form a new Race.
We are not white, black, or Mestizo...we are Mexican and we share vert little in common with neither Spain or North America, and regardless of where this leaves this discussion; your group associated Mexicans with Laziness and whether it had some "lossless"meaning its just 1 more of many words I have heard to degrade my race, nullify my ethnic identity, and further establish that Mexicans do not have any interest beyond Smoking Pot and not working a job... I'm sorry, but this idea and topic for your CMS should be renamed to "Caucasians Methods [for] Slander".
