2) The book is a powerful reminder of what can happen to a once wealthy democratic country when fascists take control.
Some accepted the loss of democracy in exchange for ‘security’, then 30,000 people died and nothing got better. #Argentina is still digging itself out from the #DirtyWar.
This story is a powerful reminder of what can happened when the truth is ignored along with #HumanRights
This can happen in America if we choose to stay silent

1) I was a teenager when the #DirtyWar was taking place in #Argentina. I remember the sinister junta generals making their appearance at the 1978 World Cup
Haley Cohen Gilliland has written a deeply impactful history of that horror as seen through the eyes of grandmothers who lost not just their sons and daughters tortured and pushed out of planes over the cold South Atlantic but also their grandchildren born in captivity, torn away from their mothers and kidnapped by their tormentors

#France / Alban Liechti
Alban Liechti (1935 – 2024) was a French anti-colonial militant. He was the first French soldier to refuse to bear arms against the Algerian people. #Wikipedia
Mort d'Alban Liechti, le « soldat du refus » de la guerre d'Algérie
« Dans cette guerre, ce sont les Algériens qui défendent leurs femmes, leurs enfants, leur patrie, ce sont les Algériens qui combattent pour la paix et la justice. » C’est pourquoi, ajoute-t-il, « je ne peux prendre les armes contre le peuple algérien en lutte pour son indépendance ».
"In this war, it is the Algerians who are defending their women, their children, their homeland; it is the Algerians who are fighting for peace and justice." He adds, "This is why I cannot take up arms against the Algerian people in their struggle for independence."

9) Last week was not a good one for democracy in #Argentina with the election of #JavierMilei, another #FarRight tin-pot
The new president is a poster boy for countries who cannot get their sh#t together. Since the end of the #DirtyWar, #LatinAmerica’s 2nd largest country has struggled with hyper inflation, a public finance crisis and an inability to take advantage of the extraordinary opportunities available within it’s borders
There will be more lost years

I’m not saying another “Dirty War” is imminent, but the language used by Milei does sound very similar to that used by the military junta to justify the killing, torture, disappearance of anyone suspected of being to the left of the extreme right or in today’s right wing terminology “cultural Marxism”.
