Are we supposed to feel sorry that someone who at least willingly associated with extreme violence (if not committed it themselves) is locked up?
The word “associated” in this context can be as little as “looking like a gang member”. People are arbitrarily arrested and locked up, often without real evidence or due process.
I of course feel sorry for the many thousands of innocent people who are imprisoned in horrible conditions as well as their friends and family who have no idea exactly where they are.
The Bukele regime is barbaric and extremely antidemocratic. And Bukele actually has very much associated himself with Trump and his corrupt circle. These people can’t be trusted and don’t work for the people, they just want money, power, and influence.
