points of view are shaped by experience. It's not irrelevant at all. I'm trying to understand why you are applying principles of a civilized society to a nation that was reborn within the last 5 years.
No other western nation upholds the standard you're trying to impose on Bukele. Is it the ideal, of course.
But reality rarely works that way. Do you think Washington is a beacon of chivalry and honor or do you think there's a pretty healthy amount of bribery and corruption?
If that's true of the world's leading democracy, then why do you think Bukele giving warning about bribes and corruption in a nation that was the #1 hotspot for criminality is somehow just his opinion?
Sometimes you have to act according to what you have, not according to what you want.
