Yea as a Mexican whose lived in multiple states in Mexico patriarchy and conservatism is still very much alive, especially in smaller areas. It's getting better but it's still a very religious country. They suffer from much of the same things the US does when it comes with dealing with conservatives. Instead of it being about white power it's just about patriarchy and religion and good old conservatism. Doesn't help that a lot of the population is barely literate and many don't go to or graduate high school. In my experience, graduating high-school is seen like getting an associates degree In the US.
