Thanks for that word. I'm probably not smart enough to get your exact point, but I just had a nice dive into Mexican culture.

Mexicans are kind people.

In Brazil, the equivalent ritual is "malhar o Judas", or, "to beat the crap out of Judas", when an actual doll representing a traitor is beaten during street carnival festivals.
