what is happening?
The response to this tweet:
Evo Morales is already declared as the presidential candidate of the Movement Towards Socialism (MAS-IPSP) at their party congress in Cochabamba a few months ago. The congress has also voted to expel President Luis Arce.
Is this true?
Cuz Arce kinda sucks. Not that I am for the coup.
Interesting. What is the case for Arce sucking, from your perspective?
I'm not Nakoichi but Arce has been pretty bad at protecting indigenous Bolivians from the mining operations leaving dangerous residue in the water.
thanks for answering
MAS expelled Arce from the party for being a shitlib. Very lib article fair warning.
thanks for answering
It created an interesting situation in which MAS was elected into power and then expelled the leader of the party who was currently president. Effectively the government went from being a MAS government to being an independent government.
But yes, there's a significant power battle going on between the left leaning socdems and the actual socialists.
