When you think that living in another country would take you away from the political disaster of yours, but it isn't really the case
Living in Argentina is really a headache in these times.
It's election year in Latin America, and that means living in civil war alert style!
Bolivia, Uruguay and Argentina elect president. In the case of Argentina, today there were elections although in October are the final ones and even here the elections are not safe from the theories of "interference". The rightists in charge are already shouting that if the Peronists (leftist populists, leftist nationalists, and Keynesians) win, it is because of Russian interference! For example, the opposition candidate for governor for the province of Buenos Aires, Axel Kiccillov, best known by Argentines as the most handsome former minister of economy in the universe, is being accused by liberals of being a communist and Russian agent! It is true that he is of Russian ancestry and is a Keynesian economist, but from that to call him what he is being called... is persecution.
This fight is in turn involved with all the countries of the region, and reached such a level that even Viggo Mortensen, who is closely linked to Argentina, took sides and gave his support to the Peronists.
And this is just beginning, we'll see.
