Context for this meme:

1. On <a href="https://www.lanacion.com.ar/politica/fabiola-yanez-denuncio-a-alberto-fernandez-por-violencia-de-genero-nid06082024/">August 6, 2024</a>, Alberto Fernández was accused of intimate partner violence by his ex-wife Fabiola Yáñez.
2.

The very same day, <a href="https://www.infobae.com/politica/2024/08/08/se-conocio-un-video-de-alberto-fernandez-con-tamara-pettinato-en-el-despacho-presidencial-de-la-casa-rosada/">a video of Fernández and Tamara Pettinato</a> gets leaked, where very notably the former asks the latter to say something nice about him.
4. On <a href="https://x.com/Luis_Delia/status/1821864544064438608">August 9, 2024</a>, D'Elia publishes an screenshot of a message Alberto Fernández sent him, where the latter asks the former to listen to him before he kills himself.
5. On <a href="https://x.com/Luis_Delia/status/1822300290822898043">August 10, 2024</a>, D'Elia once again talks about suicide and publishes this meme mocking Alberto Fernández.

Sofía Clerici was already <a href="https://www.perfil.com/noticias/politica/en-plena-campana-sofia-clerici-blanqueo-su-romance-con-martin-insaurralde-en-el-mediterraneo.phtml">a controversial figure</a> during the 2023 elections.

The fact that he ended up dismembered lead to jokes comparing him to Exodia, from _Yu-Gi-Oh!._

Sergio Berni: Before and after

In the <a href="https://tn.com.ar/policiales/2023/04/03/la-matanza-ladrones-asesinaron-a-un-colectivero-tras-tirotearse-con-un-policia-arriba-de-la-linea-620/">dawn of April 3, 2023</a>, Daniel Barrientos (a bus driver) was shot to death by criminals while he was working in La Matanza. <a href="https://oestenoticias.com/municipios/la-matanza-mataron-a-un-chofer-y-hay-paro-de-colectivos-en-zona-oeste/">This caused a strike of 6 hours</a> in order to reclaim for more security. Sergio Berni (Minister of Security of Buenos Aires Province) went to talk to the protestors in order to get them to calm down, and <a href="https://www.perfil.com/noticias/policia/fotos-asi-golpearon-a-sergio-berni-en-la-protesta-de-los-choferes-de-colectivos.phtml">he was beaten instead</a>.

Berni tries to cultivate an image of being the Argentine <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Rambo">Rambo</a>, so initally he refused to denounce the people who punched him. However, the next day <a href="https://www.pagina12.com.ar/537766-berni-sobre-el-crimen-del-chofer-no-se-si-no-nos-tiraron-un-">he started to push for conspiracy theories</a> blaming the opposing political party. And so, the next day he denounced them, and were promptly detained by the police.

Of course, this caused <a href="https://www.telam.com.ar/notas/202304/624721-paro-colectivos-detencion-agresion-berni.html">a new strike</a> asking for the liberation of the two drivers. This whole affair was considered to be one of the worst PR blunders of the currently ruling party, especially because this is an election year.

Obelisk of Buenos Aires vs. the National Flag Memorial (in Spanish)

Translation:

Obelisk of Buenos Aires:
1. It's a very simple obelisk
2. Any country (Brazil and U.S.A.) can have it
3. Zero national identity
4. Labor exploitation in its construction
5. Grave of José Consentino, one of the dead workers
6. Another historical monument (Basilica of Saint Nicholas of Bari) had to be demolished for its construction
7. Cradle of Peronists and leftists
8. Nobody liked it, people wanted to demolish it
9. Representation of the start of the Argentine decay
10. Boring
11. Artistic decadence

National Flag Memorial:
1. Unique in the world
2. Place where the national flag was created and raised for the first time by Belgrano
3. 100% national and patriotic
4. It's a giant ship
5. It's located in the same city where the best football player in the world, Lionel Messi, was born

Ignacio González Prieto

Ignacio González Prieto was the reporter sent by Todo Noticias (TN) that covered Máximo Jerez's funeral in the Los Pumas club in Empalme Graneros, Rosario, Santa Fe, Argentina; one of the poorest neighbourhoods of the city. The anger of the neighbours became violent when they decided to attack Cristián Carlos "El Salteño" (the one from Salta province) Villazón, one of the local <i>transas</i> (people who sell drugs, but do not produce nor distribute it) which was accused of shooting Jerez.

They looted his house, destroyed it, burn it and threw stones at him, and intended to lynch him. The <i>transa</i> meanwhile shot live ammunition to the crowd. Santa Fe Police stopped the angry crowd with rubber bullets and took the entire Villazón family away.

After that, the neighbours decided to ransack the remaining bunkers (permanent constructions used to sell drugs); all of them were, of course, empty. Their inhabitants went away to save their lives, probably taking note of what happened to the Villazón family.

González Prieto covered it all, getting acclaim from a lot of people, especially in comparison with Esteban Trebucq and Amalia Granata, who weared paintball vests during a trip in a relatively safe zone of Rosario, despite the dubious protective capacity of such clothes and the safety of the zone, while González Prieto only wore a shirt in a truly dangerous setting and time.

Argentine Ministry of Security be like...

In Argentina, there's always a debate about whether police should use tasers or not; they currently can't. On February 17, 2023, eight agents of the Buenos Aires City Police stopped the actions of a man who threatened people with a sharpened stick by hitting him with folding chairs. The absurdity of the situation caused the footage to go viral.

Marva @MarvaMSK I love how English football chants are just like "referee's a prick" while Argentinian chants are like "on this monumental occasion, with Diego and Leo ever present by our sides, we will purge our enemies and take revenge for that one Brazil game in 1952" (continues for 8 verses) Traducir Tweet Federico @FedeVoltes_ 7 dic. 2022 As many of you have seen, an argentinian fan chant titled "Muchachos Ahora Nos Volvimos a llusionar" became very popular and is sung around all corners of Qatar.
