“Lo azteca goza entre nosotros de prestigio pop. Se trata no solo de la parte derrotada, sino de la parte original. La pérdida de contacto con esa cultura permite atribuirle méritos que acaso no existieron. La selección nacional asume con orgullo el mote de «equipo azteca», las fondas ofrecen budín azteca y las empresas se bautizan con corporativo integrismo como Banco Azteca o Televisión Azteca. Un Canal Mestizo tendría muy poco rating. Los méritos aztecas suelen ser herméticos. No aluden a los sacrificios humanos, el castigo de mutilación por faltas menores ni a la tiranía que exterminó a otros pueblos, sino a algo venturosamente indemostrable.”
