As OP says, since the Cartels got involved, the situation has become much worse as they bribe the Mexican government, who have zero environmental protections in the first place.

Now they just deforest wherever they can and plant Avocados. Seriously, Avocados are probably worse than blood diamonds in terms of negative social & environmental impact.

The cartel takes over a lot of shit. They are probably the most well-armed, coordinated, and funded terrorist organization in the world. And most Americans would cry if we deported a member.
IIRC, the cartels have forcefully taken literal cities, oil fields, manufacturing plants, and the like. I even read a few stories about them kidnapping female tourists and give them to the big wigs, because having foreign sex toys is considered a mark of honor.

So no, I'm not surprised they are taking over agriculture as well.

Your industry is the reason why. If you all actually cared, or if your government did, maybe you would have laws in place to stop that.
If you and your government can't do that, then you are weak. Weaker than the cartel that plagues your country.
If such laws didn't exist elsewhere, then the forests in America would already be gone; the skies in Britain covered in fog.

This is due to the growing mental illness called veganism. Vegans crave animal fats as it is their natural diet but due to their religious beliefs they substitute avocados as animal fat. Even though it's just plant oils, they eat it every meal while saying IT'S SOOOO GOOOD. They only care about chickens, cows and pigs. They do not care about other animals such as Mexicans

It is mental illness

We’ve been over this. Mechanical planting and harvesting kills between twenty and thirty thousand small mammals per acre, every year. These animals are not instantly killed with a captive bolt gun, but they are crushed to death in their shallow burrows or ripped to shreds by whirling blades. Their atomized gore ends up permeating every single pulse, grain, bit of rice you eat. Unless you believe that somehow a cow’s life is worth more than a vole’s or a rat’s, which is totally stupid thinking as I’m sure you agree, you’re causing more suffering and animal death than if you exclusively ate beef, where you could easily kill only one cow per person per year.

It’s not the meat industry that kills the most animals per year. It’s big grain and soy.

No, only a sick freak of a vegan would eat grains and pulses and beans. It’s absolutely cruel! This is why, as an actually ethical vegan and not just a slave to big grain, you shouldn’t eat mechanically harvested crops of any kind. Imagine this little animals getting crushed, mangled, their guts spurting out in wormlike coils as they are crushed, entire families of them! Tiny little baby bunnies and voles, their eyes just opened for the first time, and the only thing they EVER saw was their poor mommy’s skull getting smashed and her brains coming out, right before that soy harvester kills them too.

Let's see sources for your figures, which you don't have and didn't even bother to look up. Remember, when disputing somebody else's counter claim and begging for sources, your original lack of sources shines very brightly in the eye of the lurker

Do you work for AECOM? You post exactly like a mid 50-something Jewish east coast shill. Now cough up your sources which dispute anon's claim, and remember to do it FIRST next time, or people will notice that you're an actual paid shill and call you out for it again. And again. And again, AECOM.

I'm just being real with you. If mexicans weren't so ready to destroy their land to get rich, your land wouldn't be destroyed. I would bet avacado money that if you all cut exports of avacados by half, but doubled the price, you would see the same profit but with better margins.
