#comparar la marcha de anteayer en Argentina con las protestas universitarias en EEUU

[elbiotipo]

I honestly don't envy Usamericans who are in the current political situation, to be completely fair. It seems to be a very uphill battle to build popular movements there. I have said before that the US compared to most other countries I'm familiar with is very strange because of the lack of major political and popular mobilizations (with the exceptions of the BLM and wider Afro-American and Native American movements of course), and the repression that, while it's something that happens in many countries, it's surprising to me at how banal (the simple excuse of 'you're cutting a street', that's what protests do) the excuses are.

And there is also a lack of, well, left-wing and popular political alternatives (and not only as in elections, but active parties and movements, militant unions and organizations), what some call "populism" to me is a point of pride, because it's the organized people here in my country who have gained their rights and protect them even in the worst dictatorships and neoliberal governments.

I hope things change soon up there.
