Argentina has the highest percentage of people of German ancestry in Latin America, and people of German ancestry are actually the fifth largest ethnic group in the country.
You nailed it though, Germans and other Europeans have always emigrated to Argentinia, it's one of the reasons about a thousand officers of the German high command escaped there post ww2.
But as other have noted in the thread, plenty of Nazis made their way into a normal, very comfortable life in the countries that made up the allies. Not like Argentina was special, the country just already had a decent German population already.
Oh I see, sorry! I'm so quick to try to have an argument.
Yeah, hence my water use analogy.
Sure, that doesn't mean they aren't encountering them elsewhere, very few people are on a single social media, very few people are not directly affected by the news cycle, it's all part of it.
Imo it's not worth acting like we're unaffected just cause we're here.
Feels like victim blaming the people who are currently being manipulated by algorithms which specfically draw people deeper and deeper into content designed to make them angry.
"It's your fault for being manipulated!" You scream at the top of your lungs. It's like when my state asks me to preserve water, but it barely regulates industrial water supply. Which is somewhere between 90 and 95% of total usage.
Maybe you are trying to treat a symptom, and maybe ignoring the direct cause is a bit of a problem.
