I know that the US hates NAFTA and the Zapatistas but i am not sure that the Zapatistas dislike NAFTA.
ummm they showed hatred
The Zapatistas opposed NAFTA because they believed it would exacerbate economic inequality and undermine the rights of indigenous peoples in Mexico. They argued that the agreement favored multinational corporations while neglecting the needs of local farmers and communities, leading to increased poverty and displacement. Additionally, the Zapatistas sought to promote autonomy and self-determination for indigenous populations, which they felt NAFTA threatened by prioritizing corporate interests over social justice.
