The star of the Mexican version of 'The Office', Fernando Bonilla, sparked a conversation on social media after expressing his displeasure over the use of his image in a political context. The controversy began when the political party 'Citizen Movement' (MC) shared an image of the character played by Bonilla, accompanied by a message about Nuevo León's leading position. Fernando reacted promptly, asking the party never to use his face for their political purposes again. 'I love that you make memes, it's a reflection that the show is very popular, but jokes to laugh are one thing, and a party using my image is another,' he stated. In response to questions about his political ideology, the actor clarified: 'I have red blood and a heart on the left, but I don't belong to any party.' Despite this, he faced criticism for his political stance. To date, the MC party has not issued an official statement and has only removed the post from its social media.
