The general strike has long been an important political instrument of the opposition in Argentina. Since 1983, it’s been used by the unions 42 times.
On a sidenote, this is pretty damning for anyone negating the need of vanguard party. They organised 42 general strikes in 41 years, a supposed ultimate weapon of the working class - and are still in this bog. Sure, they did prevented a lot of worse things coming, but clearly this is still at best the stalemate in class war.
What a load of crap this whole comment is. It's written by a person who clearly has never studied what Javier Milei's extreme policies in Argentina are doing to the working class there. If they where Argentine I'm sure they would be paid by the now US and NATO supporters of Milei's government for posting this.
Argentinians like yourself are why you now have an ancap fascist LARPer in charge, lol.
Hope he dies in a funny way.
You mean in a country that is currently being blatantly sold off to the US by Milei? Or one of the countries that are under genocidal blockades?
Both Venezuela and Cuba are under blockade. Argentina has nothing but a stupid sister-fucking president you most likely voted for, no sactions, no blockade, just ancaps doing ancap things.
"How dare you wish death on someone who pushes millions into poverty to enrich capitalists! Have you no decency?"
and the few times we had an ellected non peronist government it was overthrown by the peronist
Like when?
EDIT: Forgot to address Alfonsin:
Literally just lost an election. No overthrow against him ever happened.
And his replacement was Menem, to boot, whose actual policy was selling off Argentina to the US. Milei has stated that he likes his policies.Fernando de la rua
HAHAHA. So, your case of non-Peronist governments being 'overthrown' is just common people rioting against those who brought misery upon them? And not stuff like actual overthrows by the military and the US like the ones carried out against Juan and Isabel Peron? Lol.
He and Menem caused a crisis, and people acted against that. They rioted, he resigned. No actual overthrow happened.If a union has the same flag as a political party you have to realize that they do not care about workers and if that political party is full of corrupt people who only care about themselves you know these unions are in it for the money
That's a rather silly argument. 'Oh no, they are using the same flag!'
This is especially silly, considering that the recent Peronist governments are what helped Argentina recover from the earlier disasters.Judging by your perception of history, economy and economics, politics, the current situation, and by your grammar, you seem to be a child whose understanding of this stuff is limited to fantasy, nonsensical conjecture, memes, and lack of awareness of how things like privatisation, defunding of education, shifting the tax burden from the rich to the poor, and similar things work.
mimimimi i am afraid of the gordo peronista :(
All the people who demand you to work your fucking ass off every day for stupidly low salaries, to sacrifice yourself to the Ajuste, to shut the fuck up and never ask for a raise or question authority are THE richest people in this country. Imbecile. And all you care about are "ThE pErOnIsTs"?
Here, I will say it: If if wasn't for the Peronists you'll be eating grass in the Pampas like Roca intended.
and what Milei is doing is not corruption? selling state assets? transferring wealth & national income from the poor to the rich?
you are such a fascinating creature, do you love Milton Friedman?
You're one of the best @s I've seen, your comments are comedy gold. A Milei defender is an exceedingly rare sight, thank you!!
Democracy failed reliably in Argentina. They need less democracy if anything. If I was an enemy of Argentina, I would want them to have more democracy, so they can remain a non-competitor.
