Bolivian President Evo Morales has resigned

God you're such a fucking LARPer. "Guilty until proven innocent!" They're literally describing indigenous people like him as Satanic and you think they won't kill him?
My God. Words.

How vile.

 
You wouldn't even bother responding if that were the case.
I like to argue with people who are wrong.

Let's see then about some of the facts:
  • Morales was running for the presidency a fourth term. Bolivian constitution says no more than three terms. Must be a great guy. :rolleyes:
  • International observers refused to certify the election after reports of irregularities.
  • Interim president is Jeanine Anez. Not a part of a coup, but actually a member of Morales' own party (EDIT: last source was wrong, she is a part of the opposition party, but has also been facing demands to step down; still no evidence that she is some deranged lunatic that you portray tho opposition as being).
  • The people who are revolting violently? Members of the Cult of Morales, who also apparently care not one bit about constitutionality. President for Life, woo!
  • The military did not take over. They suggested that Morales resign, In fact, they also fired the person who made that request.
  • The constitution says that Bolivia has to declare new elections within 90 days. The interim government, Morales' own government without himself as an unconstitutional leader, has stated that they will comply.
  • Despite what you declare about the opposition party, the leader is not a fanatic. In fact, he is Morales' choice to represent Bolivia at the Hague.
Really, all you have is hyperbolic comments and hysteria because you don't like what some people in the opposition party have to say. Which aren't nice words, but your insistence that running like a bitch because a member of the military suggested he resign is justified, and he would totally be murdered despite the violence coming from rioters that support his eternal rule... well, none of that is actually based in reality.

The court rejected the referendum. The ones claiming irregularities are a highly dubious bunch. There are literally calls where the opposition describe what they did as a coup and state American politicians were assisting. Also, apparently according to you having a total normal one is sending a military unit to go and kill the dude's dog

  1. The referendum was Morales begging for a fourth term. Yes, it was rejected. His running for office was unconstitutional. Getting a bent court to rule that you can just remove constitutional limits does not mean that it becomes legal.
  2. Prove it. Morales was also the one to invite the observers, so it seems more than a little odd that he chose a group that was going to undermine his election.
  3. I'm sure you can provide recordings of those calls then.
  4. Try using English instead of complete garble. Maybe also add some relevance.
But you only trust the sources that tell you what you want to hear. Neat. Good for you. I prefer real journalists who say differently, but to each their own.

Everyone else is waiting to see how the upcoming elections turn out, but I guess someone has to stand up for the guy who fled after he was told that rigging an election and running unconstitutionally is a bad thing to do.
 
I'm not sure how Morales was "not great guy" he's one of their most successful leaders and the most popular.

He was the last true leader of the pink wave left. He also stopped the drug war and protected from Chapare, whose coca is not as chewable as other places and still occasionally smuggled out of the country. He's also from the highlands and a indigenous leaders, which pisses off people from the meat creole and mestizo cities (hence the blockades) and specific regions of the control that tried to launch a secessionist movement about a decade ago. Bare in mind that the official capital of the country is Sucre, a old colonialist bastion that was way more important back when the country had access to the sea.

Meh. Innocent men don't run, and having the military suddenly standing together and saying "you bad, all your country are belong to us" acts as plenty of evidence that somewhere things were already plenty rotten.

And let's face reality, no one has to share all the information with randos on the internet. Literally every government says things that we are supposed to take at face value, and depending on how a person leans it is an automatic cry of cover-up and conspiracy, or it is truth from the mouth of God.

Lol communists are the worst, they flip as soon as soon as someone brings out the tanks. They were going to do to Morales what they did to Allende.
