Just based on the article, these “reforms” are clearly aimed at harming the working class. I’ll give you one guess as to which other class of people will benefit from them.
You should also make a guess as to what percentage of working class people voted for this baffoon.
Propaganda is incredibly powerful.
That’s very dismissive of the failures the former ruling party had. It’s hard to drum up votes for the guy considered responsible for tanking your county’s economy and spiking the poverty rate.
Like I agree, him winning is unfortunate and short sighted, but I think blaming the victims isn’t going to do anything other than help asshats like him win.
I’m not attempting to victim-blame; nobody is completely immune to propaganda and it’s not the fault of the working class that we’re bombarded by it constantly. Often people have no clue they’re being lied to all their lives. When they make decisions based on faulty information that’s shoved at them for decades by the rich and powerful, the working people are not to blame; the people who make the propaganda are.
Good luck Argentina. You’re going to need it.
It’s so easy to destroy shit. Much much harder to build something that will work.
Scary times for Argentina
Aww, why didn’t he stay the course? Things have been going so well!
Did it get into this state because of bad policy or because of corruption?
Probably a lot of both, though the last government Fernandez/Kirchner was a special treat, considering especially the Kirchner clan’s history of economic failure and record-breaking number of corruption charges. But during the 2019 elections Kirchner promised to have learned her lesson and do better this time, which appears to have convinced a majority of voters. 🤷♂️
Yes.
Don’t cry for me argentina
Cry for yourself, Argentina.
