I guess they don't remember the large numbers of Germans who migrated to Mexico in the late 19th century. They had a noticeable influence on Mexican culture:
The German influence on modern Mexican culture is visible in their dairy, brewing, and musical entertainment industries with major exports like beer, cheese, and carpentry all deeply rooted in northern German traditions. The most notable German influence on mainstream culture however, is the Northern regional musical sub-genres of tejano, banda, ranchera, and norteño among others.

The Mexican name Aleman is Spanish for "German". In the film "Das Boot", one of the officers on the sub is a German who was raised in Mexico.
