Outside and Inside Mexico

Outside Mexico: Inside Mexico:

Two nearly identical views of the Mexico–United States border wall are labeled “Outside Mexico” and “Inside Mexico.” The joke is that crossing the wall appears to change the scene only through a dramatic color filter, parodying exaggerated perceptions of Mexico as hotter, more colorful, or more chaotic. It is used as a reaction to jokes about cultural differences or crossing a border.
