Must-read by @petizagavarrete.bsky.social in @dissentmag.bsky.social. Much of this will sounds familiar to US readers, given that Bukele's state of exception has served as a model for Trump and the global right's authoritarian agenda.

In Bukele’s #ElSalvador, he is the only person who is above the law. The road ahead is long. Even the first step—telling the truth—is officially considered a crime.

One cannot talk about peace when that peace is obtained through a climate of fear, silencing and persecuting any dissidence. Or if it is constructed on systematic human rights violations. What #ElSalvador has is far from being called peace. revista.drclas.harvard.edu/peace-in-el-...
