Everything to do with the USA's own Imperial Backyard. From hispanics to the originary peoples of the americas to the diasporas, South America to Central America, to the Caribbean to North America (yes, we're also there).

Post memes, art, articles, questions, anything you'd like as long as it's about Latin America. Try to tag your posts with the language used, check the tags used above for reference (and don't forget to put some lime and salt to it).

Here's a handy resource to understand some of the many, many colloquialisms we like to use across the region.

He ran a shitcoin scam through his presidential twitter account and nothing happened. Nothing ever happens. Except for crypto scams.

Its like Trump said, he could kill a mfer in main street at mid day and he wouldn't face any consequence since the media apparatus is in his side working tirelessly to defend him.

do argentina and iran even have the slightest worldwide diplomatic relations? is this like in civilization 3 when a random nation on another continent declares war on you and tries to send a swordsman at you for the next 150 turns?

Since the bombing attacks to the Israeli embassy (1992) and AMIA (a jewish organization) in 1994, Iran has been on the radar of Argentine politics. The investigation and judicial process were a total fuck up, full of tainted evidence, false witnesses and fake accusations, etc. At first they pointed at Syrians but quickly switched to Iranians because that narrative was more palatable for zionist & yanki interests.

Then in the first half of the 2010s Cristina Kirchner's government (centrist) was accused by the right-wing opposition of "helping Iran" when the congress approved a memorandum with Iran. To summarize: they spread fake news about Interpol red alerts on some Iranians "falling" because of the memorandum, which were denied by the same Interpol. They didn't care and half the public ate this bullshit. This political move was incentivized by DAIA, a zionist organization similar to the ADL in yankiland.

10 years later the far right wing keeps insisting that "ThE LeFt" is in cahoots with Iran. And of course they consider Kirchnerism (Peronist variant) as "left-wing" radical communists which is laughable, they are centrists or right-wingers depending on what direction the wind blows.

EDIT: not to defend Kirchner but the accusations are baseless. What really matters is how they created a scary monster to act as opposition.

Furthermore, there is the narrative that those bomb attacks were in response to Argentina's involvement in the First Gulf War, so it is understandable that in this situation some can be worried if this nutjob sends military support for the American Empire in case of another war.

When the crisis began, Argentina immediately announced they were concerned about antisemitism in their country. Just desperate for attention from the fascist international, it's sickening.

I hope Iran does establish a relationship with Argentina, in that their first nuke should be used on this nation of failsons.

trump-drenched speech-side-l-1 They impeached him speech-side-l-2

[–] [email protected] 0 points 2 days ago (1 children)

According to the deputy, Milei violated current regulations. “The attempt to involve Argentina in an international armed conflict without going through Congress is a violation of all our regulations,” he said. “It is Congress that authorizes, or not, the executive branch to make peace or war.”

inshallah pls let this impeachment work
