It literally is. If you get imprisoned for weeks, months or even years without any proof, you are guilty until proven innocent. Sure you can argue that those imprisoned people were never actually convicted and thus it wasn't guilty until proven innocent but that doesn't change the fact that they were imprisoned without proof and despite being innocent.
But I suppose you can say that it all was within the system as the system is corrupt and hypocritical anyway. Rules are regularly bend, changed or simply ignored without consequences. Even the constitution isn't safe from that.
That's my point. You might consider it guilty until proven innocent, but it is how the American system works.
Innocent people go to jail because they face charges, but those charges are never carried out, not perused, or are dismissed. That is the system that you, very likely, already live in. So did your parents and grand-parents. You may not like it, but that's a reality of even Liberal states. That's how inside the system it is.
I'm aware that there is a very big difference between what the systems pretends to be and what it actually is. I consider working within the system as adhering to the illusion and working outside the system as not to.
If you work outside of the system you basically take complete control of the system which is what Bukele did. He didn't respect regulatory bodies that would've liked to sabotage his efforts. And he could only do that because the people overwhelmingly support him.
So if you don't have the overwhelming support of the people nor control the regulatory bodies, good luck with getting anything done. Just as they find loopholes to get what they want they'll find loopholes to stop you from doing the same.
At a certain point, that's just self-delusion. You have to deal with things as they are. Not how they present themselves to be.
I agree that it would be crazy to trust the system as it is to fix itself with the people who are currently in it. It would be like releasing Hunter Biden's laptop to CNN, because journalists speak truth to power. Obviously that's retarded, because CNN is not operating the way their propaganda says they should. This begs the question, why the hell would we expect them to abide by propaganda standards. The standards you are calling "the system", aren't the system's standards, it's no one's standards. It's not even their standards because it's literally just a sales pitch they don't intend to abide by in the first place.
Is it the system's hypocrisy when we ask it to fulfil enemy propaganda? No. The system is the system, regardless of propaganda. It is simply a machine. If you understand the machine, then you use the machine. That's what they're doing, frankly they are the ones operating well outside of the system. They are the ones explicitly breaking the law, procedure, and prudence because their revolution isn't going fast enough to their liking.
We don't even need a revolution, we really just need a revolt from their control over the system, and then for us to simply work the system as intended.
That's what Bukele did! He didn't have a 90% approval when he went to war against MS-13, but when he did he used every weapon at his disposal within the state's power. That's how he got to 90%. He earned people's trust, and they gave him further political capital to keep fighting on other fronts. Those bureaucrats really were working with the Cartels... which made them part of the enemy racket, which made them all legitimate targets.
Neither Millei nor Bukele have ever had complete control over the system. What they had instead was momentum. That was more than enough to break through the first layer of defense, and victory gives momentum to victory. The enemy knows this so well that they manufacture fake momentum to legitimate their own pre-planned actions.
