Is this going to be like when SJWs killed Speedy Gonzales even though most Mexican people loved him?

There won't be any big controversy over this, so no. However, I think speedy gonzales was just a dumb character regardless of if he's racist.

Here we go, off the rails
Don't you know it's time to raise our sails?
It's freedom like you never knew

Don't need bags or a pass,
Say the word, I'll be there in a flash
You could say my hat is off to you

Yes, it's appropriation.

Is it a negative? No, and in my experience, most Mexican-Americans give no fucks or are actually glad their culture is being shared.

As a Hispanic American, I think it's pretty dope they're doing this. Hopefully the level is fun.

I don't think it's bad at all.

Infact I wish they had more levels like a Japan level, a Chinese level, or France level, or maybe even a Brazilian level.

I welcome different cultures in my video games.

The bigger issue here is the guitar has six tuning pegs but only four strings.

I'd just go flat with the Wikipedia def of the adoption of cultural elements by a separate culture.

Did you just assume the guitar bro? That's a bigoted microagression!

What? Are we expecting to believe that this is some sort of magic guitar?

I sure hope someone was fired for that blunder.
