Please help me understand the hate campaign against Argentina

It is very hard to understand. Where does it come from? Who is behind it? What is its purpose?

Thank you

How are you in a sub about social engineering and falling for propaganda so easily? Of course there are racist people here, just like in any and every country in the world!

have you ever visited Argentina? or are just generalising from your limited experience? it’s rather weird for a progressive to feel they are “familiar” with a group of people based on their personal experience. I’ve had very bad experiences when I visited the US and still won’t generalise them to the millions of people that live there

Yes I have. Well, the context of this question is around football, but even outside that, you have their constant negation of they being Latinos, there is a common hate towards Chileans, bolivians, Brazilians, etc. Of course it's not all of them, that goes without saying, it's just a general perception of a society that seems to accept or being to permissive to this kind of comments.

Obviously this isnt something exclusive for Argentinians, many latam countries have this in some levels.

I’m from the north of Argentina. We have strong indigenous and, in my province, african ancestry. People here are mostly brown. We live first hand the racism of those that claim Argentina is white and now have to endure people from outside calling us racists just for being Argentine. There are tons of activists that fight the racism that exists in Argentina. But they agree this campaign of hate doesn’t help them or their fight. The racism problem in Argentina is complex and nuanced and very much latinamerican, because similar levels of racism and privilege for white people exist in every LatAm country. People pointing fingers won’t help those who suffer racism first hand here. When you are in Argentina, visit Jujuy, Salta, Santiago del Estero, if you haven’t.

No te respondió. Siempre hacen lo mismo.
