          because they’re chauvinist pieces of shit, who think because currently argentina is going through the 2001 crisis again it means some fuck up shit that’s actually true about their countries, because it’s always projection. in all of latam every few years we have a change in politics and there’s a right wing government. hell, paraguay has had a right wing government (el partido colorado) for decades but I guess since they don’t know shit about paraguay they dont have anything to say. they don’t know anything about fujimori’s crime so it’s only argentinians right? who’s bolsonaro?

          its a very different thing when a right wing government arises in latam than when it does it the west, and they lack the mental capacity to aknowledge this distinction. specially in argentina, we had a dictatorship and after that multiple slave debts to keep argentina in check, they murdered the communists, forced mass migration, ruined a lot of lives and potential political organization. THESE VERY SAME PEOPLE, FROM THESE VERY SAME COUNTRIES DID THAT. and now come here telling shit about argentina this argentina that. and after all of this shit, we still have free education, free healthcare, and we have a lot more soul and life than them. that’s milei’s plan, the us cant stand that a baknrupt country has better social welfare than their shitass country so they came here to destroy that and leave us in complete ruin. after that we’ll stop being right wing and we will become the country they feel sorry for.

    The Falklands are one of the few places in the world were the Europeans settled an actual empty land. The residents of the island, the Falklanders, want to remain part of the UK. Argentina’s only claim is … geographical proximity. There is no colonialism here, only jingoism.

      colonization is about control over extra territorial resources. it does not require indigenous people to exploit.

        hashtag not all colonialism

        that said, the Falklanders are literally the closest thing to an “indigenous” culture on the Falklands, why should a settler-colonial state like Argentina have any claim on their self determination?

          argentina, the land known for its multiple colonies and its extensive history of expansionism.

              you are a delusional cracker. argentina doesn’t have a claim to self determination, but the UK, the country known for lootin, stealin, colonizing, has a claim. yeah, im sure you’re not a cia bot or something like that. your understanding is an idiotic simplification of contemporary politics influenced by the rotten ideology of the west. according to you no country in latam should a claim because they were all formed during european colonization. you clearly don’t see the difference between a country that was formed by colonization but that nowadays forms part of the global south vs the shit you live in in the global north? according to you there are not indiginous people living in latam, it’s just a settler colonial entity. the reality in latam is one that you clearly don’t know, haven heard of, haven’t talked to people here, because we’re very much different from your genocidal kind. if states remain under their colonial form is not because of the will of the people, but because of the violence your folks keep pushing in our land. but the true is that people here still represent the plethora of ethnicities and identities that were formed under said colonization. please go fucking die.
