All my Salvadoran relatives cite the lower crime rate, when i mention the prisons are beyond inhumane “yes but the crime rates” but what about the innocent people that surely got swept up when civil liberties were suspended and people thrown in prison without trial “yeah but crime rates” how come the president is pro Putin? “Yeah but crime rates” you guys do realize he’s gonna eventually turn on you all, and already calls himself a wannabe dictator? “Yeah but the crime rates”.
El Salvador will become a fascist stronghold and everyone is just loving it

I watched a great video on it and it’s shocking… But he really did cut the crime rates.
It’s gone from high chance of being murdered to medium chance of being arrested without trial, most consider that an improvement… For now.
Probably going to go full power hungry dictator at some point though, they almost all do ☹️
