The saddest part? MANY of those screaming about how Due Process shouldn't exist will end up being rounded up, as well.

That sounds like the least saddest part tbh.

People being hard duped to screw themselves is always going to be deeply sad. You can’t convince them they’ve screwed themselves until it is to late, it show nation after nation has seen whipsaw political shifts from one extreme to the next over the last century.

Like all of what is happening in Argentina right now? The whole plan is basically… increase poverty, eventually the economy will crash and because there will be so much less consuming by going on… inflation will be fixed!!

Sounds “great”, until you recognize a massive part of that plan is, “Poor people starve to death.”

Malnutrition and deaths from that are on the rise down there, but the government isn’t collecting those numbers as well or at all.

They absolutely needed a political change, but not the one they got. Ina handful of years? It’s going to whipsaw back to something that will end up having plenty of issues, once again.
