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.

If she made the decision to not run again for President, then she's not proscribed by someone else

Gonza Carranza @gonzacarranzaa A mi en lo personal me duele la decisión de Cristina. Me duele porque siento y reafirmo que es la única con la experiencia, la capacidad y la empatía para sacarnos de este lío. Sin embargo, su proscripción es real y nos da cuenta que vivimos a merced del Poder Judicial Translated from Spanish by Google Cristina's decision hurts me personally. It hurts me because I feel and reaffirm that she is the only one with the experience, ability and empathy to get us out of this mess. However, her proscription is real and it shows us that we live at the mercy of the Judiciary 6:47 PM - May 16, 2023 88.2K Views 64 Retweets 170 Quotes 555 Likes 13 Bookmarks 27 □

A meme made in reference to an infamous event on live TV

On <a href="https://infonews.com/larreta-a24-fanta-la-matanza-plaza-de-san-justo-votos-esteban-trebucq-manipulacion.html">May 9, 2023</a>, Esteban Trebucq was reporting in San Justo, asking people passing by who they planned to vote in the upcoming presidential elections, some of them even mentioned who they'd vote for governor, despite no one asking that. The funny thing is that everyone who said who voted for Horacio Rodríguez Larreta, had a bottle of Fanta orange soda, something the reporter noticed too. <a href="https://www.clarin.com/politica/polemica-chicanas-insolita-encuesta-callejera-botellitas-fanta-votaban-larreta_0_7fIUZcEOT8.html">This became a meme</a>, due to how pathetic the whole thing was. It seems that the <i>punteros</i> noticed that the whole thing was too obvious, so they asked their actors to <a href="https://twitter.com/INRamos13/status/1656125662145527808">hide the bottles</a> as much as they could. Here's an <a href="https://twitter.com/INRamos13/status/1656118200315019265">interesting thread on Twitter</a> (in Castilian) that documents the most notorious cases.

Increase of the dólar blue since the first business day of the year up to April 24, 2023

The <i>dólar blue</i> is the American dollar sold freely by individuals without permission of the government, and without limits. Thanks to Alejandro Agustín Lanusse and the Argentine Revolution (Law 18924/1971), it is illegal to trade with foreign currencies without authorization of the government. This last month it has been experiencing extreme increases, and people have assumed we're in the eve of an hyperinflation.

“Sentido Común” (Common Sense) by HistorietaBord (in Spanish)

Translation:

1. “What's your plan to lower the inflation?” — “I'm going to kill all retirees” — “Okay... you're a son of a bitch” — “Shut up, impoverisher leftist!”
2. “Controversial retiree reduction plan of one of the favorite candidates in the polls” — “Is it possible that the project reaches Congress?” — “We are going to discuss it 24 hours a day on all channels”
3. “Relax, this government is not going to kill retirees even if we have inflation of 100%, 200% or 300%. Seniors have the right to live a full, happy life and also enjoy, why not, their sexuality. That it is a subject that is not talked about and we should reflect on it. You see, sex in old age...”
4. “We do not agree with extreme measures. There are no magical solutions. There is only work, work, work. That is why we commit ourselves not to kill more than 5 out of 10 retirees.”

Panel 3 is a reference to an <a href="https://www.pagina12.com.ar/243514-gabriela-cerruti-hay-que-hacer-la-revolucion-de-las-viejas-p">infamous Instagram post</a> and <a href="https://www.pagina12.com.ar/321310-el-goce-es-nuestro">(later) book</a> by Gabriela Cerruti in which she vindicates old people, and talks about their sexual needs.
Panel 4 is Horacio Rodríguez Larreta and a criticism of his Central Korea approach.

José Luis Espert proposes the Peso Libre (Free -as in freedom, not free as in free beer- Peso)

José Luis Espert is one of the two main libertarian candidates in Argentina. He's famous for advocating for the <a href="https://twitter.com/jlespert/status/475033688850567168">dollarization of Argentina</a> for several years. The fact that he now advocates for a national currency, after joining forces with Horacio Rodríguez Larreta (which turned out to be quite controversial), sunk his reputation even further.

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
