https://twitter.com/StateDeptSpox/status/1410667507824877570?s=20 The US clients in Central America seems to be in a weird spot right now because Biden's State Department has embraced anti-corruption campaigns as their solution to "addressing the root causes of irregular migration." Except all the people they've supported and elevated over the past century are some worst criminals in the hemisphere, so they are indicting their own puppets. There is this article about El Salvador's plan being a tether scam. I don't know enough to judge its veracity. https://davidgerard.co.uk/blockchain/2021/06/11/el-salvador-passes-its-bitcoin-law-and-its-a-tether-scam/

Gringo here asking, but does CDMX have a problem with missing persons/desaparecidos? I'm passing in a Metrobús in Calle Reforma and I saw some tents with signs of people's faces saying "se lo llevaron" "Con vida lo queremos". The monitors in the bus also show missing person alerts. I am aware that in states with serious cartel problems like Sonora or Michoacán kidnappings/secuestros are a serious problem.

There haven't been any mentions of kidnappings/disappearances being a problem in CDMX in national news that I've seen. Caveat: I'm not in Mexico City, but if it was a Big Thing it would probably be mentioned in the national press. Reforma is traditionally where people coming to Mexico City to protest or demand action from the government camp out, since it's a wide open public space that's very close to many federal government offices. It's where the Oaxaca teacher's syndicate camped out for years to protest the education reform law, for example. Without knowing specifics, the tents you saw are more likely to be people from outside the city, not actual capitalinos.

I can't not share this ITT Latin America is in a ‘democratic depression,’ the worst in nearly half a century | Opinion quote:Political scientists have been saying for at least a decade that the world is in a “democratic recession,” because growing numbers of countries are becoming autocracies. But in Latin America, it’s getting even worse — we may already be in a “democratic depression.”

fyi Fernando Henrique Cardoso was the neoliberal reformer president of Brazil in the 90s also, significant exaggeration over bolso's numbers there. he got bitchmade that the "protests" were far, far weaker than he expected and didn't mobilize nowhere near the numbers necessary to show the support he imagined he had, so by wednesday he was retracting with an open letter (written by Michel Temer whom was a major figure he rallied against during the election) to "seek conciliation" loving lmaaaoo

Kindest Forums User posted:Should I get excited about the Chilean general election coming up? The polls look really good for the leftist coalition Apruebo Dignidad. Any good analysis of the situation? Here's an effortpost I wrote a couple of months ago with a quick summary of Chilean politics and an overview of the presidential candidates (post below it). recent developments since that post: - Lista del Pueblo (anti-establishment left) collapsed in a pretty spectacular fashion. Diego Ancalao (their prospective presidential candidate) buried the name of the coalition by having his candidacy rejected by the electoral service due to fraudulent collection of signatures (which they got by registering with a notary who, as it turned out, had been dead for two years) and constituent assembly member Rojas Vade went down in infamy after it was revealed he'd been faking a cancer diagnosis. I believe the group has effectively ceased to exist in the constituent assembly, with their members re-registering as independents. They're officially out of the presidential race and their prospects for the parliamentary elections seem dim, though Fabiola Campillay, notorious victim of police brutality, could win a seat. This would normally be to the benefit of Apruebo Dignidad, since it effectively ends the main competition they had for the leftist electorate, but LdP sympathizers might just choose to not vote instead, or even back Eduardo Artés. - The center-left (Narváez, Provoste and Carlos Maldonado of the Radical Party, who I didn't include in the list of candidates before because he does not exist) finally managed to get its act together for a primary, except it wasn't a *legal* primary (the electoral deadline was well past that), but rather a self-managed, non-binding "citizen consultation". Provoste unsurprisingly landed the nomination, but participation was absolutely dismal (a slim fraction of AD's record-setting primary) and it was taken as a grim omen of NM's chances for the general election. They might do a bit better in the legislative races, though. - Cristián Contreras Radovic withdrew his presidential run and will be peddling his magic crystals or whatever in a legislative campaign instead. - Marco Enríquez-Ominami has joined the fray! A former socialist congressman, he split from the party (and the Concertación) in 2009 to create the Progressive Party (center-left). It briefly appeared that the PRO could become a viable third force (like the Frente Amplio ended up becoming a few years later), but instead it slowly sank into irrelevance as ME-O's vanity project. Enríquez-Ominami has ran in every presidential election since, halving his previous support every subsequent race (2009 - 20%, 2013 - 10%, 2017 - 5%) and all signs point towards the trend continuing, or deepening, this time around. - Eduardo Artés has joined the fray! A candidate for the Marxist Anti-Revisionist Unión Patriótica (far left), he also ran for president in 2017, getting only 0.5% of the vote. He briefly resurfaced to the public eye during the protests. when some soundbites of his 2017 debate performance were circulated as evidence of him accurately reading the factors that would lead to the 2019 riots. Artés could theoretically stand to gain votes from disillusioned Jadue and LdP supporters, but he seems ill-equipped to appeal to that crowd, since he's become known for a socially conservative streak that would gel well with Perú's Pedro Castillo but doesn't land particularly well with the chilean leftist electorate. - The perceived sluggish pace of the Constitutional Convention (and scandals like Rojas Vade's) has taken a toll in public approval for its work. This could be reverted once they move past the initial stage (deciding the internal rules of the convention) and into meatier areas like social rights and modes of government, which is scheduled to happen around this month, but there's still going to be a constant media effort to paint the convention as a circus, and countering it might need a degree of left-of-center unity that currently seems pretty challenging. If the Convention flounders, so does the left. --- Overall, there's reason to be cautiously optimistic about AD's chances. The left (and AD and the Broad Front in particular) has fairly consistently over-performed polls by a significant margin in the last few elections, but there's still plenty of room for error, and the last few years have been very *eventful*, so last-minute changes in public opinion can't be ruled out, either. The momentum has been with the left so far, but that could change if support for the constitutional convention starts sagging, or if AD fucks it up on the home stretch (which is very much a posibility, as Oliva's run for governor of Santiago proved). At any rate, the most likely runoff scenario with the current numbers is Boric-Sichel, which appears safe for Boric. A majority in parliament is all but impossible, however, and if Boric does win he'll need center-left support to pass his agenda, which will be tricky, though at least nominally they're on similar pages. For the legislative elections I'm expecting results fairly similar to the numbers we got for constituent members, with the right maybe making some gains and most LdP voters going to AD or to other independent candidates.
