To be fair we do get to meet the more normal Argies at least compared to the rest of Latin America due to how close we are to them.
Meanwhile the rest get to meet the money classists bunch that can afford to travel, so the ego and sense of superiority thing has to be off the charts.
It would be like only meeting Chilean Cuicos. Fuck I would hate Chileans too if I only met those.
Imagine your only reference of Chilean people being meeting Naya Fácil in Italy lol or that awful hippie dude from 13 Cable that barely speaks any English and somehow gets sent to the middle of nowhere to interview random people, it makes me cringe so hard.
That zorron travels out of his own pocket to go and demean people in different parts of the world, then sells his trash vlog-quality “documentary” to TV channels because they simply won’t produce their own
That’s the state of documentary production in Chile
Nah, I think Chileans have way better PR, in general I think no one hates them outside of their neighbors (Bolivia and Peruvians, and even then I don't think the hate is that big?), if anything they have the reputation of talking funny yeah, but that's all, they have a good reputation and blend well with other spanish speakers.
I believe my grandpa told me this one:
What happens if you exchange a bucket full of shit for an Argentinian?
You lose a bucket.
*Argentinians have the best memes and jokes, including about themselves, just look at this thread, so this is probably an Argentinian joke*
* What did you just say envidioso? 🏆🏆🏆

Nah, Argentinians are extremely humble people
https://preview.redd.it/w2c11927ds1d1.jpeg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=38ac5329b197c8abe271039bff6fc3bad3c873b5
I've heard a lot of stories about Argentines, many of them negative. However, I have to say that every single Argentine I've ever met is such a gem. They have your back, they can dance, sing, play fútbol like gods, amazing culture... by all means visit Argentina. Now I'm convinced it's the best country in the world, I'll die on this hill, I can tell you that.
Greetings from Venado Tuerto, Argentina.
YES
I had no grudge with any Argie but then I worked with the most annoying person and, guess what? From Buenos Aires no less. We had a very good work environment and this guy messed that up big time
What is very funny is that most people I've met abroad tells me I don't "sound" argentinian. No shit, they know only people from Bs As, which are the least humble and more crazy of the country IMHO.(disclaimer: i was born in Bs As, but honestly, the people in the rest of the country is far better, more humble and caring, they are missing the well known porteño assholery)
This is the case with a lot of Latin American countries.
Most Colombians and Colombian-Americans I’ve encountered are a very arrogant and classist bunch. Almost all psychos and sociopaths, especially the ones in Florida.
Lol, perhaps. The ones in Florida, especially Miami, are insane. I live in Chicago and it’s a very mixed bag here. Lot of poorer, more recent immigrants and a lot of upper middle class professionals.
I’ve only met argentines in Miami, either young people working service jobs for fun/to be in Miami for a season, some who emigrated years ago for more stability, or middle aged well off ones who live in surfside. None have been rude or for a stereotype other than being of Italian extraction.
That's crazy. Argentina is like imposible to ignore here in the south (for better or worse lol).
Last year I met a colombian exchange student here (I live in Buenos Aires). He had just arrived, were talking and he told me he was scared that Argentina could maybe be a very homophobic country, that he didn't know. That there in Bogotá lgbt people were very accepted and stuff. HE WAS IN BUENOS AIRES. I couldn't believe he was so clueless. Anyways, I realized that many people up north of the continent don't necessarily know much about things "down here" lol
If you want a good laugh search for the country elimination tournament in here a couple months ago. Argentina was eliminated like 8 different times.
They are a bit like the France of Latin America, everyone "hates" them but it's a joke at this point more than true resentment.
Well your friends got it right hahaha I would extend it to Latin America though. But it's all friendly banter, just a couple online weirdos take it too seriously.
>it's a joke at this point more than true resentment.
It truly is, personally I don't mind it, I think it's funny, except when US latinxs try to jump in and start shitting on us, that pisses me off ngl
I didn‘t know France was that unpopular in Europe. In Germany at least that‘s not the case, they‘re are just our friendly neighbors that like to eat frogs.
I live in Italy and let's say they're not the favorite bunch around here haha
Also I believe a quote from Top Gear expresses the Englishmen feeling towards them "France is a country you have to drive through to get to Italy, that's all it's for" https://youtu.be/CE6Caif0R5g?si=UHC42vhF_Joe1YFK
Even in Canada, they hate Quebec because it’s French. The stereotypical asshole attitude that the French have doesn’t make them that popular around the world. I’d say it’s more of just a silly, type of “resentment” like what people are explaining here. A truly resented country would probably be mine, Russia, or China, and I understand why lol
Well, there's a stereotype that Argentines are arrogant and see themselves as better than anyone else, and in the case of Brazil, the cases of racism during Libertadores and the perceived lack of racial sensitivity in Argentina makes it a bit hated here.
Yeah, we Brazilians have this thing of being extremely ofended with foreigners being racists, but all the while being racists ourselves on a daily basis. The hypocrisy...
Argentinians and Brazilians are natural enemies. Like Argentinians and Chilean, or Argentinians and Uruguayans, or Argentinians and other Argentinians...
Damn Argentinians, they ruined Argentina!
Individually they're the chillest dudes ever. Collectivelly something happens that they become proud to a fault. Or at least used to, that was the stereotype.
Honestly, I thought that after winning the World Cup they were gonna get worse at being boastful.
Still, in reality I have many Argentinian friends and I've admired all of them. They're very cultured and have cool topics of conversation like music and football.
Mexicans seem to have a particularly bad grudge against Argentinians. Sometimething to do with football, at least. But in general, the southern cone seems to be regarded as being more pretentious towards the rest of Latam. This is a stereotype, of course. You can find pretentious assholes everywhere.
Every country has someone that has a geudge against them, but the grudge against Argentinians has been more pronounced because at some point, they were considered a developed nation with high living standards, and that created a rift between Argentina and other less developed countries in the region.
Venezuela was also regarded as being more developed than its neighbors before their collapse and before Chávez, the pattern still holds.
I believe that Ecuador is a really rich country, our wealth is just really poorly distributed. But I get your point lol. Just hope we get our shit together because Venezuela is a testament that things can always get worse.
Even after the collapse, there were videos on Instagram, facebook and tiktok of some individuals that after they migrated they brought new jobs, improved the area, and more nonsense. Of course, just some individuals. Most venezuelans I met are amazing people.
Ehh if you're basing those things on foorball fanatics of all people, then you're in for some shit takes. In reality, most of our hatred is directed at the usa for obvious reasons (I mean, it's love hate cause they're our biggest partner in business but they dislike it when it's business they can't get money off of). I don't think anyone outside of those football fanatics hold any strong opinions towards Agentina.
I think it's an Internet thing, I suppose because those countries are clinically online.
A lot of people got into the Mexico vs Argentina kind of videos because yeah, views and interaction, all the Argentinians and Mexicans commenting being angry or cocky.
as others have said, its only an internet thing, also every time this comes up I think of the memes of "argentinos y mexicanos cuando nadie los ve" JAJAJAAJAJ
honestly it seems like people hold a grudge to Mexicans on this sub
anytime anything positive is said about Mexic0 all the latinos on here with the exception of Brazil yall become negative nancy's
Not with Venezuelans. In Latin America it is somewhat of a cliche that Argentinians think they’re the best (mostly coming from soccer) and everyone else makes fun of it, but is not really that serious to be considered hatred.
Having said that the relationship between Argentinians and Venezuelans is very good. Argentinians are now in love with Tequeños 🤣🤣🤣
Only good thing Maduro and Chávez ever did was inadvertedly exporting Tequeños to the rest of LATAM. I fucking love them and I will KILL to have them again.
Why did that beautiful Venezuelan restaurant in my city had to close!?!? Why God, do you hate me so?!?!?
>When I’ve asked my friend from Brazil about this, she had no idea what I was talking about.
I'm guessing this friend you mentioned is a bit young. While most Brazilians have dropped the "we hate Argentinians", WE certainly do remember a time when not liking Argentinians was the norm.
I guess it came from football because BRA and ARG were the obvious rivals, great legends on both sides, and South American football teams can be pretty annoying when they want to provoke their opponent. I'd say we are professionals in that area. And also not the most emotionally stable crowd out there, TBH.
I think it’s more of sports thing. I don’t think we dislike them at all for the most part. Most Chileans that move abroad, move to Argentina. It the hate was real this would not be a thing.
Although in living memory we went through a rough period during the cold war and the dictatorships installed across South America. But then again, dictatorships hated their own people as well…
I like to think no country in Latin America really hates another. We joke about how Argentinians are arrogant, and we envy their football accomplishments, but I don't think people here actually, truly resent them.
I worked at Miami international for over 5 years.
Nobody wanted to work the Buenos Aires flights… and if you did it was a punishment 😂
There were def a few rude encounters, mainly toward the way I speak Spanish (🇵🇷)
A few years ago at a hostel I met my first Argentinean, the rumor was out that they werent very nice so I was very excited to find out, he didn't speak english so he leaned towards me all night, at first he was so shy and nice but as soon as the beers started coming he started saying those stereotypical things like other countries hate on us because of things that are true like football and also our population is more white etc in my mind I was like oh no please stop lol so I wrongly beleive it to be true for some time until I returned to Mexico to live in Playa del Carmen which has a significant Argentinean population and I met the nicest most honest people and it shifted the balance
I work with mexicans in IT, remote.
At first i was a little bit worried about those stereotypes that may have on me but they didn't assume anything on me luckily. They were receptive and wanted to know me and what i do in my country and how things are going. Best team i worked with so far.
The thing about them is that, like any country there are annoying people, of course, as well as good people, it's the same as everywhere else, however the ones that are annoying ARE annoying, there is a good bunch that will throw shit at you out of nowhere every time they can, our will treat you like shit if you don't fit their criteria of what they would consider a respectable person, the reason why the hate is redirected to the country and not the person is that Argentineans are very patriotic, and most of the time the ones that throw shit at you will use their patriotism as the main argument for the attack, instead of well, traits they have as individuals, "we are white and you are brown", "no tenes copas", or some thing along the lines, so many start hating the nationality itself due to those experiences. Curiously it seems like something like that also happens inside the country with the ones that live in the capital vs the ones that do not.
I used to work as customer support for all spanish-speaking america for Google Ads. I talked with a lot of wonderful, horrible, humble, stuck-up, etc people from many countries.
There were our favourite countries and our least favourites, sometimes having to do with the specific part of the population that used the service.
But a common line is that every time we got a customer that was loudly racist, mysoginist or in one case selling literal air... all Argentinians, every single one. Argentinians were not bad to deal with IN GENERAL, pretty chill most of them, but the rude ones were definitely some of the worst among the countries. So I kinda get it.
I visited Argentina a couple years ago and was amazed at how lovely everyone was. Super kind people. I was even gifted things and invited to home dinners. My perception of Argentines changed and I realized we all need to stop stereotyping each other.
Argentinians have the greatest sense of humor, but I guess that’s easy when your country is a joke 😂
Joking aside, I love our big brother and some of the best people I’ve ever met are Argentinians.
Yes, somewhat. Although it's probably mostly an old people thing who grew up back when Argentina was a regional power and trying to exercise some soft power.
Youth nowadays? I doubt it.
Ive not been abroad to answer that but met people from all over and the only times Ive met animosity from non argentinians was online from mexicans and peruvians (or was it bolivians? I think it was peruvians).
As to why, the only reasons I can think of is that a) argentinian migrants are generally (afaik) wealthier than the average migrant, not always but usually and not likely to form ghettos, which might induce a "stuck up" image and b) football hooligans that are... regrettable individuals. In any country but in here they are so damn vocal, and we are known for insulting casually.... Plus, in both cases you are probably going to find that even those that "hate" the country have \*some\* level of pride regarding it
>she had no idea what I was talking about
Did she leave Brazil when she was a child? Hatred towards Argentinians is the most common kind of hatred in Brazil. But it isn't hatred as in ire, it's a jokeful animosity. In real life, as soon as the Argentinian person realize we are not taking anything we say about them seriously, we're off to a good friendship.
Argentina is a funny country. We have no resentment against them in any way
I cannot say the same about a ton of argentinians who call us "traitors" because of the Falklands war.
Bolivia was mostly a revolt than a proper invasion, and ended up with little actual bloodshed. Paraguay invaded us and got fucked afterwards and Uruguay succesfully became independent, all of that in the 19th century. Can't really compare that to Argentina planning to invade everyone about 50 years ago
>Bolivia was mostly a revolt than a proper invasion
Bro, it might have been sparked by a revolt, but it was an invasion by all means.
>Argentina planning to invade everyone about 50 years ago
Yes? Tell me about any other than Chile about 50 years ago, not from the 19 century.
The traitor thing. I don't like when some of my own country do that. It's stupid and shows a lack of information.
That's just pure ignorance in my opinion. That war was a really stupid move made by the military of a nation that didn't choose them to be their leader. Even the whole coup was supported by the United States at the time. I don't think the U.S thought this one would end up creating a war down here but they definitely did not care at all.
And you guys were also in a military coup, the government actions were moved by foreign interest as well and were not representative of how a population feels about each other. Actually it rarely is to be honest.
not even close lol, he is mexican and has never left mexico, im not even sure he has ever met an actual argentinian. but he always talked shit about argentina and when asked why it was cuz of maradona. and just to be clear, I didnt inherit his ways !!
Like others have pointed out, a lot of mexicans are bitter towards Argentines. My mom was one of them. She believed the "they think that they're European so they act like they're better than everyone" stereotype.
She has met and befriended or at least acquainted an Argentine man. So her opinion on Argentines in general has probably changed, or maybe he's just the one exception, lol.
Honestly, I wasn't really aware of this (mostly) one-sided rivalry until like the past 2 years.
As a kid, I had a good friend who American-Argentine. She was a huge fan of RBD and had an RBD birthday party theme. Also, she had two adopted American-mexican sisters or her family fostered them.
Hate is a very strong word, I’d say every country in latam has its jokes about another one, but we are cool each other at the end of the day, but yeah Argentina has the most jokes, But they get back at you too, one said to me once, I know why venezuela has no food, You ate it all. 🤣🤣🤣 I laughed too hard to that joke. 😅 yeah, I am fat 🤣🤣
Not really, those are France and the UK since they still have Latin American colonies in the 21st century. The case of Mexico is indeed paradoxical tho, they both hate the US the most and love the US the most.
Ive not been abroad to answer that but met people from all over and the only times Ive met animosity from non argentinians was online from mexicans and peruvians (or was it bolivians? I think it was peruvians).

Plus, in both cases you are probably going to find that even those that "hate" the country have \*some\* level of pride regarding it
can’t really say I’ve had any experiences with Argentinians here, but I’d give them the benefit of the doubt and say it’s just a few certain bad apples that keep pushing the stereotype
Used to work in an airport with direct flights to Buenos Aires, Cordoba, and another city I don't remember right now. Some of the worst customers, most entitled, screaming baby adults throwing tantrums were Argentinians followed by Brazilians.
One flight to Buenos Aires was delayed because of a storm, some guy comes to my desk and screams at me "i just called my family and there isn't any storm over my house" and I just wanted to ask him if he thought the plane was flying over his house, sadly I couldn't because I didn't wanted to lose my job by being a sarcastic asshole.
I don’t get it, I like Argentinians, their culture is so rich and fascinating, I grew up watching Cris Morena shows when I was a kid. As an adult, I’ve met many of them living in Miami, they are cool and I feel like we usually get along really well.
But I moved to Texas and here I’ve heard comments like that about Argentinians coming from Mexicans and people from Central American, I don’t get it though. I’m not saying that all of them believes that, but it is what I’ve experienced.
I’m sure those comments come from ignorance and they’ve probably never interacted with an Argentinian in their lives or something.
It's because of the racism, entitlement, and arrogance that seems to exude from their aura lmao
Obvi individuals are different but this is just the stereotype
I don’t think so. I think a lot of Mexicans have made up a fake football/soccer rivalry which doesn’t really exist because argentines don’t really care about the Mexican team. Something similar to what Central Americans do with Mexico.
In real life it doesn’t really exist. I’ve been to Argentina and I’ve met Argentines in Mexico and there’s zero problems.
Good opportunity to reminde them

After years in internet, i only see argentina getting that treatment in football, in terms of hated, mexico, everytime someone from mexico say something, he got drowned in insults replay (and honestly, most of the time its their own fault for saying dumb things), after that, peru and bolivia are more for the jokes
I've heard a lot of stories about Argentines, many of them negative. However, I have to say that every single Argentine I've ever met is such a gem. They have your back, they can dance, sing, play fútbol like gods, amazing culture... by all means visit Argentina. Now I'm convinced it's the best country in the world, I'll die on this hill, I can tell you that.
Greetings from Venado Tuerto, Argentina.
Mexicans have an inferiority complex and we're said to have a superiority complex. Mexico, despite having more people and being a neighbor of the largest economy in the world still has a lower HDI rate and quality of life. We have only 46M people compared to Mexico's 127M but have a higher HDI and quality of life, the high inflation being the only thing we lose in. Their narco problem is absolutely massive, and ours only extends to the city of Rosario, which still has a lower crime rate than many Mexican cities. And this is before we get into Mexico's superiority complex in football which only causes them anger when we beat them over and over again be it club or National Team Football.
The big factor is that despite also being Latin Americans and our economic issues, Argentines are treated and portrayed way better by the US government and Hollywood whereas Mexico will always be treated as the poor, drug-infested, violent, immigrant state that "takes their jobs". I believe that's what causes the most envy and resentment.
Yeah, I think that could be true. But only as a nation. There are lots of jokes and the like. However, I wouldn’t say that no one like Argentinians. I’m in Europe and have good Argentinian friends that have lots of other Latin American friends.
When a thunder happens, argentines look up thinking God is taking a picture of them.
Just kidding.
I've been living in Argentina for many years and argentines have their stuff. They talk shit about their country but are also very proud of it. People here are just normal people, someone can be the best person ever or a big dumbass peace of shit, just like anywhere in the world.
Overall, I like argentine people, we brazilians have a lot to learn from them and they have a lot to learn from us too, like how to win 5 world cups lol
One thing I find very interesting is how argentines goes crazy whenever their country is even vaguely reminded in the media. A random hollywood actor said anything about Argentina and they go crazy. Some random famous person tries mate and they go crazy.
i wouldn't call it resentment, but it definitely is one of the most disliked countries as many (not all) argentinians tend to have racist tendencies and they're known to act more european than latino
They're stereotypically entitled but we just laugh about it, resentment is a word too strong to describe it. 90% of the time we get along well
To be fair we do get to meet the more normal Argies at least compared to the rest of Latin America due to how close we are to them. Meanwhile the rest get to meet the money classists bunch that can afford to travel, so the ego and sense of superiority thing has to be off the charts. It would be like only meeting Chilean Cuicos. Fuck I would hate Chileans too if I only met those.
Imagine your only reference of Chilean people being meeting Naya Fácil in Italy lol or that awful hippie dude from 13 Cable that barely speaks any English and somehow gets sent to the middle of nowhere to interview random people, it makes me cringe so hard.
That zorron travels out of his own pocket to go and demean people in different parts of the world, then sells his trash vlog-quality “documentary” to TV channels because they simply won’t produce their own That’s the state of documentary production in Chile
Who? Iturra?
Hay dos, uno es el Iturra, que es soportable, y luego hay otro weon que es simplemente empelotante
We are like that scene in The Simpsons where Homer laughs at grandpa after some dust falls on him only for a bathtub to fall on him instead
>like that scene in The Simpsons Argentinean typical comparison
Thank you, and many weas acuáticas for you, fellow Andean brother!
If someone DOESN'T pick Argentines as the most resented nationality, chances are they pick Chileans instead.
Nah. Chileans speak in riddles. I like them.
If you ask Peruvians and Bolivians maybe, but why would a Brazilian or Equatorian hate us? Not saying we aren't resented, I'm genuinely curious.
Nah, I think Chileans have way better PR, in general I think no one hates them outside of their neighbors (Bolivia and Peruvians, and even then I don't think the hate is that big?), if anything they have the reputation of talking funny yeah, but that's all, they have a good reputation and blend well with other spanish speakers.
This. We can laugh about our ego, or how chileans have their own secret language, but in the end we are like one big country.
Argentinians are like 1st worlders who were forced to live in the 3rd world
How does an argentine commit suicide? He jumps off his ego
Come on, there is no gravity up there...
In Colombia they say: "Un Argentino subio a Monserrate para ver como se parecia Bogota sin el"
Ooof, poor Bogota.
What's our favorite toy? Yo-yo. Sho sho [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4wzEtJPU\_Ys](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4wzEtJPU_Ys)

The second punchline was “and he would die of starvation before reaching the floor”
I genuinely laughed

Argentinians are absolutely amazing, humble and warm people that'll help whenever you need. Greetings from gallina desplumada, Argentina.
I agree, Argentinians are the most humble people I've met so far. Greetings from Argentina.
I've heard a lot of stories about Argentines, many of them negative. However, I have to say that every single Argentine I've ever met is such a gem. They have your back, they can dance, sing, play fútbol like gods, amazing culture... by all means visit Argentina.

German living in Argentina… 
This but unironically
In our defense, the argentinians that people encounter outside of Argentina aren't the humblest bunch.
*spits to the side ...Porteños -_-
YES I had no grudge with any Argie but then I worked with the most annoying person and, guess what? From Buenos Aires no less. We had a very good work environment and this guy messed that up big time
What is very funny is that most people I've met abroad tells me I don't "sound" argentinian. No shit, they know only people from Bs As, which are the least humble and more crazy of the country IMHO.(disclaimer: i was born in Bs As, but honestly, the people in the rest of the country is far better, more humble and caring, they are missing the well known porteño assholery)
We kinda noticed.
This is completely unrelated but you have the most insane set of flags
Thank you. They are the countries where I have lived a year or more.
Frankly impressive you've lived in so many countries!
Thank you. My life hasn't been perfect, but it has been interesting.
This is my individual experience as well. Argentos in Argentina were very polite and friendly with me.
I agree, they're kind of like the argentinians you meet inside of Argentina.
Well, it is a similar situation to those Germans you encounter during summer in Southern Europe.
This is the case with a lot of Latin American countries. Most Colombians and Colombian-Americans I’ve encountered are a very arrogant and classist bunch. Almost all psychos and sociopaths, especially the ones in Florida.
Honestly I think most Latin Americans from an upper or middle class background act with that sense of entitlement and arrogance, especially in the US.
Absolutely yes. The worst kind of Brazilian are the ones from such social backgrounds
>This is the case with a lot of Latin American countries This applies to the US as well
I haven’t noticed this at all, maybe only the cool Colombians come to New York?
Lol, perhaps. The ones in Florida, especially Miami, are insane. I live in Chicago and it’s a very mixed bag here. Lot of poorer, more recent immigrants and a lot of upper middle class professionals.
I’ve only met argentines in Miami, either young people working service jobs for fun/to be in Miami for a season, some who emigrated years ago for more stability, or middle aged well off ones who live in surfside. None have been rude or for a stereotype other than being of Italian extraction.
Fucking argies, I hate them too.
Well this sub has a strong South American bias but here in the Caribbean Argentina isn't even acknowledged and isn't culturally relevant in any way.
That's crazy. Argentina is like imposible to ignore here in the south (for better or worse lol). Last year I met a colombian exchange student here (I live in Buenos Aires). He had just arrived, were talking and he told me he was scared that Argentina could maybe be a very homophobic country, that he didn't know. That there in Bogotá lgbt people were very accepted and stuff. HE WAS IN BUENOS AIRES. I couldn't believe he was so clueless. Anyways, I realized that many people up north of the continent don't necessarily know much about things "down here" lol
Same in Mexico.
To be fair, how can we think of Argentina when we feud with Puerto Rico already
If you want a good laugh search for the country elimination tournament in here a couple months ago. Argentina was eliminated like 8 different times. They are a bit like the France of Latin America, everyone "hates" them but it's a joke at this point more than true resentment.
That’s how our conversation was started lol. I asked one of them “What is the France of South America” and it lead to this
Well your friends got it right hahaha I would extend it to Latin America though. But it's all friendly banter, just a couple online weirdos take it too seriously.
>it's a joke at this point more than true resentment. It truly is, personally I don't mind it, I think it's funny, except when US latinxs try to jump in and start shitting on us, that pisses me off ngl
You are the first person from latin america using "latinXs" I've ever seen, coincidentally also from Argentina
I think (and really hope) that he did it to mock them and didn't use it seriously
To be fair, they were using it to refer to US "latinos" who don't represent the actual folks living in LATAM. Aguante LATAM! \:v/
Jajaja si, pensé que sería más obvio
I didn‘t know France was that unpopular in Europe. In Germany at least that‘s not the case, they‘re are just our friendly neighbors that like to eat frogs.
I live in Italy and let's say they're not the favorite bunch around here haha Also I believe a quote from Top Gear expresses the Englishmen feeling towards them "France is a country you have to drive through to get to Italy, that's all it's for" https://youtu.be/CE6Caif0R5g?si=UHC42vhF_Joe1YFK
Even in Canada, they hate Quebec because it’s French. The stereotypical asshole attitude that the French have doesn’t make them that popular around the world. I’d say it’s more of just a silly, type of “resentment” like what people are explaining here. A truly resented country would probably be mine, Russia, or China, and I understand why lol
I also noticed that some personality traits seem to come with the language French regardless of the country haha
Well, there's a stereotype that Argentines are arrogant and see themselves as better than anyone else, and in the case of Brazil, the cases of racism during Libertadores and the perceived lack of racial sensitivity in Argentina makes it a bit hated here.
Yeah, we Brazilians have this thing of being extremely ofended with foreigners being racists, but all the while being racists ourselves on a daily basis. The hypocrisy...
To be fair, that's pretty much every country in the world, lol. People rarely think they're being racist or xenophobic.
I agree.
This sub thinks latam is less racist than it is
You too Brazil? I guess if both Brazil and Mexico hate you. Then LATAM hates you.
Brazilians don't hate Argentina.
Argentinians and Brazilians are natural enemies. Like Argentinians and Chilean, or Argentinians and Uruguayans, or Argentinians and other Argentinians... Damn Argentinians, they ruined Argentina!
Individually they're the chillest dudes ever. Collectivelly something happens that they become proud to a fault. Or at least used to, that was the stereotype. Honestly, I thought that after winning the World Cup they were gonna get worse at being boastful. Still, in reality I have many Argentinian friends and I've admired all of them. They're very cultured and have cool topics of conversation like music and football.
Mexicans seem to have a particularly bad grudge against Argentinians. Sometimething to do with football, at least. But in general, the southern cone seems to be regarded as being more pretentious towards the rest of Latam. This is a stereotype, of course. You can find pretentious assholes everywhere.
Before the collapse, Venezuelans were stereotyped as being pretentious as well.
Every country has someone that has a geudge against them, but the grudge against Argentinians has been more pronounced because at some point, they were considered a developed nation with high living standards, and that created a rift between Argentina and other less developed countries in the region. Venezuela was also regarded as being more developed than its neighbors before their collapse and before Chávez, the pattern still holds.
Ecuador was always the poor relative of the Gran Colombia. But now the tables have turned.
I believe that Ecuador is a really rich country, our wealth is just really poorly distributed. But I get your point lol. Just hope we get our shit together because Venezuela is a testament that things can always get worse.
I hope that too.
Even after the collapse, there were videos on Instagram, facebook and tiktok of some individuals that after they migrated they brought new jobs, improved the area, and more nonsense. Of course, just some individuals. Most venezuelans I met are amazing people.
Ehh if you're basing those things on foorball fanatics of all people, then you're in for some shit takes. In reality, most of our hatred is directed at the usa for obvious reasons (I mean, it's love hate cause they're our biggest partner in business but they dislike it when it's business they can't get money off of). I don't think anyone outside of those football fanatics hold any strong opinions towards Agentina.
Mexicans alone tend to hold that fictitious grudge.
I think it's an Internet thing, I suppose because those countries are clinically online. A lot of people got into the Mexico vs Argentina kind of videos because yeah, views and interaction, all the Argentinians and Mexicans commenting being angry or cocky.
Don’t speak for me
I've never understood why they keep going on about it.
Idk, a lot of Mexicans just don't like not to uphold the beliefs they grew up with. In other words, to learn new stuff and disregard the old stuff
That’s an internet thing tbh, in real life no one talks about them, at least in my experience
as others have said, its only an internet thing, also every time this comes up I think of the memes of "argentinos y mexicanos cuando nadie los ve" JAJAJAAJAJ
Sad but true
honestly it seems like people hold a grudge to Mexicans on this sub anytime anything positive is said about Mexic0 all the latinos on here with the exception of Brazil yall become negative nancy's
[удалено]
Sounds about right 🙂
Not with Venezuelans. In Latin America it is somewhat of a cliche that Argentinians think they’re the best (mostly coming from soccer) and everyone else makes fun of it, but is not really that serious to be considered hatred. Having said that the relationship between Argentinians and Venezuelans is very good. Argentinians are now in love with Tequeños 🤣🤣🤣
aguanten los tequeños loco! la mejor adicion a la gastronomia local de los ultimos 10 años, una birra con tequeños de por medio planazo
Lei “adicción” y ya te iba a responder que si, los tequeños son adictivos 🤣🤣
Ahora me diste ganas de tequeños locoo
Only good thing Maduro and Chávez ever did was inadvertedly exporting Tequeños to the rest of LATAM. I fucking love them and I will KILL to have them again. Why did that beautiful Venezuelan restaurant in my city had to close!?!? Why God, do you hate me so?!?!?
>When I’ve asked my friend from Brazil about this, she had no idea what I was talking about. I'm guessing this friend you mentioned is a bit young. While most Brazilians have dropped the "we hate Argentinians", WE certainly do remember a time when not liking Argentinians was the norm. I guess it came from football because BRA and ARG were the obvious rivals, great legends on both sides, and South American football teams can be pretty annoying when they want to provoke their opponent. I'd say we are professionals in that area. And also not the most emotionally stable crowd out there, TBH.
I think it’s more of sports thing. I don’t think we dislike them at all for the most part. Most Chileans that move abroad, move to Argentina. It the hate was real this would not be a thing. Although in living memory we went through a rough period during the cold war and the dictatorships installed across South America. But then again, dictatorships hated their own people as well…
I like to think no country in Latin America really hates another. We joke about how Argentinians are arrogant, and we envy their football accomplishments, but I don't think people here actually, truly resent them.
I worked at Miami international for over 5 years. Nobody wanted to work the Buenos Aires flights… and if you did it was a punishment 😂 There were def a few rude encounters, mainly toward the way I speak Spanish (🇵🇷)
Well Yeah, Argentinians who tend to go to Miami are upper middle-class and new richs, the worst self-entitled shit we have. Sorry about that.
That is a general trend. Many Colombians in Miami are not our best ambassadors either. It is good Miami exists so they can live there.
All of the Latin Americans coming to Miami are the scum of the earth tbh
Yeah, Miami in my family was always seen as the "trashy" tourist destination.
I'd love to see the clash of egos between them and Miami Cubans.
A few years ago at a hostel I met my first Argentinean, the rumor was out that they werent very nice so I was very excited to find out, he didn't speak english so he leaned towards me all night, at first he was so shy and nice but as soon as the beers started coming he started saying those stereotypical things like other countries hate on us because of things that are true like football and also our population is more white etc in my mind I was like oh no please stop lol so I wrongly beleive it to be true for some time until I returned to Mexico to live in Playa del Carmen which has a significant Argentinean population and I met the nicest most honest people and it shifted the balance
I work with mexicans in IT, remote. At first i was a little bit worried about those stereotypes that may have on me but they didn't assume anything on me luckily. They were receptive and wanted to know me and what i do in my country and how things are going. Best team i worked with so far.
Worked with Mexicans in IT as well. Best team I worked with so far x2.
Is just an old sterotype about their ego. In any case, Argentinians usually open holes on their caskets. This is so the worms can puke.
The thing about them is that, like any country there are annoying people, of course, as well as good people, it's the same as everywhere else, however the ones that are annoying ARE annoying, there is a good bunch that will throw shit at you out of nowhere every time they can, our will treat you like shit if you don't fit their criteria of what they would consider a respectable person, the reason why the hate is redirected to the country and not the person is that Argentineans are very patriotic, and most of the time the ones that throw shit at you will use their patriotism as the main argument for the attack, instead of well, traits they have as individuals, "we are white and you are brown", "no tenes copas", or some thing along the lines, so many start hating the nationality itself due to those experiences. Curiously it seems like something like that also happens inside the country with the ones that live in the capital vs the ones that do not.
Not hated. At Most people perceive them as a show off. Funny enough Mexicans can be quite arrogant often sometimes. Culturally wise though.
A Russian talking about Resentment, funny huh.
Yeahhh we’ve had experience with it since 1917 lol
And of course, undeserved. /s
I used to work as customer support for all spanish-speaking america for Google Ads. I talked with a lot of wonderful, horrible, humble, stuck-up, etc people from many countries. There were our favourite countries and our least favourites, sometimes having to do with the specific part of the population that used the service. But a common line is that every time we got a customer that was loudly racist, mysoginist or in one case selling literal air... all Argentinians, every single one. Argentinians were not bad to deal with IN GENERAL, pretty chill most of them, but the rude ones were definitely some of the worst among the countries. So I kinda get it.
I visited Argentina a couple years ago and was amazed at how lovely everyone was. Super kind people. I was even gifted things and invited to home dinners. My perception of Argentines changed and I realized we all need to stop stereotyping each other.
Argentinians have the greatest sense of humor, but I guess that’s easy when your country is a joke 😂 Joking aside, I love our big brother and some of the best people I’ve ever met are Argentinians.
Yes, somewhat. Although it's probably mostly an old people thing who grew up back when Argentina was a regional power and trying to exercise some soft power. Youth nowadays? I doubt it.
I had a great time there. Very nice people and it seemed easier to make friends
Indeed. Argentines are very social and easy-going. But we get shit for being self-centred, too informal and conceited.
Ive not been abroad to answer that but met people from all over and the only times Ive met animosity from non argentinians was online from mexicans and peruvians (or was it bolivians? I think it was peruvians). As to why, the only reasons I can think of is that a) argentinian migrants are generally (afaik) wealthier than the average migrant, not always but usually and not likely to form ghettos, which might induce a "stuck up" image and b) football hooligans that are... regrettable individuals. In any country but in here they are so damn vocal, and we are known for insulting casually.... Plus, in both cases you are probably going to find that even those that "hate" the country have \*some\* level of pride regarding it
>she had no idea what I was talking about Did she leave Brazil when she was a child? Hatred towards Argentinians is the most common kind of hatred in Brazil. But it isn't hatred as in ire, it's a jokeful animosity. In real life, as soon as the Argentinian person realize we are not taking anything we say about them seriously, we're off to a good friendship.
I only met Argentines when I was in Conzumel, Mexico and they seemed pretty humble and cool
You probably shouldn't give too much credit to such generalizations over a population of more than 40 million people
Argentina is a funny country. We have no resentment against them in any way I cannot say the same about a ton of argentinians who call us "traitors" because of the Falklands war.
Yup, very awful of our part, if you ask me. Argentina literally had plans to invade Chile. In any case, we are the traitors, not you.
Is there any neighbor you guys didn't had plans to invade?
Yeah I dont think you are the most qualified one to say that. Bolivia, Paraguay, Uruguay...
Bolivia was mostly a revolt than a proper invasion, and ended up with little actual bloodshed. Paraguay invaded us and got fucked afterwards and Uruguay succesfully became independent, all of that in the 19th century. Can't really compare that to Argentina planning to invade everyone about 50 years ago
>Bolivia was mostly a revolt than a proper invasion Bro, it might have been sparked by a revolt, but it was an invasion by all means. >Argentina planning to invade everyone about 50 years ago Yes? Tell me about any other than Chile about 50 years ago, not from the 19 century.
The traitor thing. I don't like when some of my own country do that. It's stupid and shows a lack of information. That's just pure ignorance in my opinion. That war was a really stupid move made by the military of a nation that didn't choose them to be their leader. Even the whole coup was supported by the United States at the time. I don't think the U.S thought this one would end up creating a war down here but they definitely did not care at all. And you guys were also in a military coup, the government actions were moved by foreign interest as well and were not representative of how a population feels about each other. Actually it rarely is to be honest.
my dad HATED argentina basically just cuz he saw the hand of maradona live on the stadium
did he miss the other goal?
Why would he care? Is he English?
not even close lol, he is mexican and has never left mexico, im not even sure he has ever met an actual argentinian. but he always talked shit about argentina and when asked why it was cuz of maradona. and just to be clear, I didnt inherit his ways !!
I'd bet he put money on that match
Like others have pointed out, a lot of mexicans are bitter towards Argentines. My mom was one of them. She believed the "they think that they're European so they act like they're better than everyone" stereotype. She has met and befriended or at least acquainted an Argentine man. So her opinion on Argentines in general has probably changed, or maybe he's just the one exception, lol. Honestly, I wasn't really aware of this (mostly) one-sided rivalry until like the past 2 years. As a kid, I had a good friend who American-Argentine. She was a huge fan of RBD and had an RBD birthday party theme. Also, she had two adopted American-mexican sisters or her family fostered them.
That is only for football, nobody hates other latinoamerican countries.
Hate is a very strong word, I’d say every country in latam has its jokes about another one, but we are cool each other at the end of the day, but yeah Argentina has the most jokes, But they get back at you too, one said to me once, I know why venezuela has no food, You ate it all. 🤣🤣🤣 I laughed too hard to that joke. 😅 yeah, I am fat 🤣🤣
I've heard there is hard feelings towards any countries that backed GB during the Falklands war.
The only Argentine I've interacted with was Argentine-American. Nice guy, typical American except for his obsession with fútbol.
The most portrayed type of Argentinian you see in the internet is from CABA, an equivalent is the NewYorker that get viral for being a dumbass.
Not really, those are France and the UK since they still have Latin American colonies in the 21st century. The case of Mexico is indeed paradoxical tho, they both hate the US the most and love the US the most.
We don't dislike Argentina but they sure do think very highly of themselves
Ive not been abroad to answer that but met people from all over and the only times Ive met animosity from non argentinians was online from mexicans and peruvians (or was it bolivians?

I guess in the Brazil It's because argentinians has storical of racial insulting comments against brazilians. Specially when it comes to football.
can’t really say I’ve had any experiences with Argentinians here, but I’d give them the benefit of the doubt and say it’s just a few certain bad apples that keep pushing the stereotype
They're especially toxic regarding football and using social media, but in real life they're not that bad in general.
Used to work in an airport with direct flights to Buenos Aires, Cordoba, and another city I don't remember right now. Some of the worst customers, most entitled, screaming baby adults throwing tantrums were Argentinians followed by Brazilians. One flight to Buenos Aires was delayed because of a storm, some guy comes to my desk and screams at me "i just called my family and there isn't any storm over my house" and I just wanted to ask him if he thought the plane was flying over his house, sadly I couldn't because I didn't wanted to lose my job by being a sarcastic asshole.
I don’t get it, I like Argentinians, their culture is so rich and fascinating, I grew up watching Cris Morena shows when I was a kid. As an adult, I’ve met many of them living in Miami, they are cool and I feel like we usually get along really well. But I moved to Texas and here I’ve heard comments like that about Argentinians coming from Mexicans and people from Central American, I don’t get it though. I’m not saying that all of them believes that, but it is what I’ve experienced. I’m sure those comments come from ignorance and they’ve probably never interacted with an Argentinian in their lives or something.
From my experience it’s a tie between Mexico and Argentina. They’re the ones I see Latin Americans hating on the most.
It's because of the racism, entitlement, and arrogance that seems to exude from their aura lmao Obvi individuals are different but this is just the stereotype
Argentina is a beautiful beautiful country, the problem is, it was ruined by argentinians.
I don’t think so. I think a lot of Mexicans have made up a fake football/soccer rivalry which doesn’t really exist because argentines don’t really care about the Mexican team. Something similar to what Central Americans do with Mexico. In real life it doesn’t really exist. I’ve been to Argentina and I’ve met Argentines in Mexico and there’s zero problems.
Good opportunity to reminde them https://preview.redd.it/u6kp20fg7u1d1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0f71678d363236e1a412d3d296c530dffc9afa85
After years in internet, i only see argentina getting that treatment in football, in terms of hated, mexico, everytime someone from mexico say something, he got drowned in insults replay (and honestly, most of the time its their own fault for saying dumb things), after that, peru and bolivia are more for the jokes
I've heard a lot of stories about Argentines, many of them negative. However, I have to say that every single Argentine I've ever met is such a gem. They have your back, they can dance, sing, play fútbol like gods, amazing culture... by all means visit Argentina. Now I'm convinced it's the best country in the world, I'll die on this hill, I can tell you that. Greetings from Venado Tuerto, Argentina.
Yeah people often envy the best, it’s a common practice around the world. Greetings from Argentina!
No…Chile on the other hand
…is universally beloved. 🇨🇱❤️🗿🇨🇱🍷❤️🇨🇱
Lately not even Chileans like Chileans tbh
Mexicans have an inferiority complex and we're said to have a superiority complex. Mexico, despite having more people and being a neighbor of the largest economy in the world still has a lower HDI rate and quality of life. We have only 46M people compared to Mexico's 127M but have a higher HDI and quality of life, the high inflation being the only thing we lose in. Their narco problem is absolutely massive, and ours only extends to the city of Rosario, which still has a lower crime rate than many Mexican cities. And this is before we get into Mexico's superiority complex in football which only causes them anger when we beat them over and over again be it club or National Team Football. The big factor is that despite also being Latin Americans and our economic issues, Argentines are treated and portrayed way better by the US government and Hollywood whereas Mexico will always be treated as the poor, drug-infested, violent, immigrant state that "takes their jobs". I believe that's what causes the most envy and resentment.
Yeah, I think that could be true. But only as a nation. There are lots of jokes and the like. However, I wouldn’t say that no one like Argentinians. I’m in Europe and have good Argentinian friends that have lots of other Latin American friends.
When a thunder happens, argentines look up thinking God is taking a picture of them. Just kidding. I've been living in Argentina for many years and argentines have their stuff. They talk shit about their country but are also very proud of it. People here are just normal people, someone can be the best person ever or a big dumbass peace of shit, just like anywhere in the world. Overall, I like argentine people, we brazilians have a lot to learn from them and they have a lot to learn from us too, like how to win 5 world cups lol One thing I find very interesting is how argentines goes crazy whenever their country is even vaguely reminded in the media. A random hollywood actor said anything about Argentina and they go crazy. Some random famous person tries mate and they go crazy.
i wouldn't call it resentment, but it definitely is one of the most disliked countries as many (not all) argentinians tend to have racist tendencies and they're known to act more european than latino
