Socialism isn't new to LatAm. Believe in the Workers of the world

it's not that it's new; it's that it's clearly powerless against social media

Social media is not real life

[–] eldavi@lemmy.ml 7 points 1 week ago (1 children)

correct, however the last few years have proven that social media is real enough to push elections back towards forces that have dedicated themselves to eradicating socialism.

I would love for people that haven’t been to these places to go, and compare the way it looks online vs. real life. I can’t afford that and I assume most can’t, but life is vastly different than what social media presents to you just saying

it's affordable for me; it just call my family member and tell them that i'm going to stay with them for a few days and it only starts to get pricey if i want to buy a plane ticket to get there instead of driving or boating. lol
