Someone gotta say it

​@@JakeRunnels hola, soy de Argentina y creo que no tiene nada que ver. La inseguridad crece en las grandes ciudades, como en otras grandes ciudades del mundo. En Rosario, por el narcotráfico, es muy inseguro y son bastante blanquitos. Te vas a jujuy y casi no hay crímenes, sin embargo la población es mayormente aborigen. Entonces, me parece que tú mentalidad racista no encaja bien en Argentina.

Thanks man

I like to mix it up

Thanks man

Haha idk it’s prob better to keep that side private but we’ll see

Si, aquí la gente todavía no perdió la costumbre de tener hijos! 😂

Paraguay has some real nice benefits to it

All good options. I wouldn’t do Lima though. But you can dm me if you have questions

I've lived in Lima for over 6 years now and I wouldn't recommend it. It's getting worse all the time. There's a lot of crime, the traffic is awful, it's not as cheap as you might think and it's overpopulated. Looking out my window, there are about 6 apartment blocks being built withing 2 blocks of me and it's constant noise 8am - 5pm Mon - Fri and 8am - 1pm on a Saturday. It's the same all over Lima. Sundays in Lima are nice, when there's no traffic and noise. Apart from that it's noisy, dirty, disorganised - overall chaos. The food is great and the people in general are nice but can't say I recommend it. I'm used to it now and it's home for me. Also, you need to speak Spanish here to get things done. If you don't, I can imagine life here would be very difficult.

Why are you still there then?

@@JakeRunnels Like I said, I'm used to it now and it's home for me. I also have responisibilities here.

I'm Peruvian. Lima sucks. If you're even going to consider Peru, choose Arequipa or Cusco. Honestly the only cities in Peru worth living long term

I’ve only found highly processed milk here. Maybe in some areas you can get fresh but it’s not easy. I think it’s one of those weird areas where Argentinian gov again got bloated and over regulated something needlessly. Other parts of Latam have better milk.

I think race might play a part in some things in the world

Hola, eso es porque la mitad del país votó al presidente que está ahora, y él avisó que ésta crisis iba a venir. Lo votaron igual y ahora se aguantan, esperanzados a que las cosas cambien. En cuanto pase el tiempo y ésto no mejore, la paciencia de la gente se va a acabar y va a terminar como en 2001.

​@@JakeRunnelsno es un poco racista tu comentario? Los grandes ladrones usan trajes buenos y son bien blanquitos!

@@lalimasson What happened in 2001?

@@lalimassonyou just asked me if I was racist (which I don’t deny) and then said that whites are the biggest thieves. Who sounds more racist?

They aren’t “less friendly”. If anything, the overt friendliness you see in other countries is something to be weary of in many cases. For the other stuff you can DM me.

El argentino no se deja pisotear con nadie. No tenemos el complejo de inferioridad de otros países de Latinoamérica. A la vez somos los más amigueros, nos encanta pasarla bien y si venís con buena onda te vas a hacer de muchos amigos como Dustin Luke, el es un genio.

@@fernando367ful Inferiority complex like other Latin American countries? You have obviously never met a Paisa.

They don't speak Spanish do they? I thought it was Portuguese

Enjoy!

Not a lot of English

You may struggle and feel discouraged if you don't know Spanish. English is uncommon, even in BA.

Depends on the city, Argentina is not great at English

@@JakeRunnels thanks 🙏 I was looking at Buenos Aires. I was trying to learn it.. I’ll get busy again! Thanks for the great content 💪💕

I thought they speak Portuguese over there

@@sibaroochi that’s Brazil

sometimes

Interesting

the whiter the people the safer he feels it seems

@neptunemike it seems

@@JakeRunnels Don't be ashamed. Many Europeans are abandoning their people, be proud you have that internal bias.

⁠@@neptunemikethat is generally the case.

;)

It’s rare but possible

In Santa Fe province there are a lot of them

The African population used to be more than 50 percent of the Argentine population, and there used to be more black people in Argentina than in Brazil, Argentina committed mass genocide against its African population, and I personally would never set foot in Argentina. Argentina from 1868 to 1874, Domingo Faustino Sarmiento, undertook a genocide' that wiped out the Afro-Argentinean population to the point that by 1875, there were so few Black people left in Argentina that the government didn't even bother registering African descendants in the national census. Tellingly, Sarmiento wrote in his diary in 1848: What is [to be] done with such blacks, hated by the white race? Slavery is a parasite that the vegetation of English colonization has left attached to the leafy tree of freedom,” - International Business Times. imagine they killed half their population. the land of Argentina was fertilized with the blood and bones of Argentina's former African enslaved population. the food that grows in Argentina, and the grass that grows, for which the cattle graze on, was fertilized by the blood and bones of, its former African enslaved population, that unique taste that you taste, when you eat food grown and grazed in Argentina, is the blood and bones of your former enslaved people. African slaves built Argentina, and then the former slave owners paid back the slaves for the great works, toil, and effort, with mass genocide, the most complete and comprehensive genocide in human history. most of the present black and African population in Argentina are recent elite African and black immigrants, who did not arrive in Argentina until after 1980 and are not descendants of Argentina's African enslaved population. Argentina has gone a long way in whitewashing the genocide of its former African enslaved population, by allowing marginal mostly elite African immigrants, who themselves are somewhat anti-African, and tend to be very invested in absolving the European Argentine population of its genocide past, one of histories most comprehensive genocides committed against Argentinas descendants of Argentinas African population descendant of the trans-Atlantic slave system

@rascott2935 BASED

@rascott2935 like none of that is true btw, it is almost comical

@@JakeRunnels just look it up please, the information is there, please let me know if any of my research, or information is incorrect and I will change it.

@@rascott2935 That information is wrong: 1) this part of the virreinato wasn´t involved in huge plantation business like there were in USA, so there were few slaves. Argentina declared womb freedom in 1813 and THERE WERE LEGAL MIXED MARRIAGES SINCE XVI th century. 2) Spain wasn´t an enlaverist Empire, as England was (English Empire and then USA got wealthy from slavery).

Or like what about Spain?

Not yet but I’ve heard a lot about it

@JakeRunnels I appreciate the travel logs. I so wish I could travel, but not yet for me. If I had to make a choice to visit, I would definitely go see Spain. They say around 30% of people speak English there too.

@DorthyMoo im glad I learned Spanish

@JakeRunnels Me too. I'm sure it helps in certain countries. I haven't heard your Spanish, but ill check out your vlogs. I speak fluent Spanish too!

Who’s talking about Buenos Aires ?

@@JakeRunnels you talk in general in some specific parts but most of the video you talk about Buenos Aires or describe the Buenos Aires lifestyle. If regarding siesta, you weren't talking about Buenos Aires; you didn't specify it as you did in the parts of the video where you talked about other parts of the country.

Ok

You’re right they only shot his family’s store up and tried to murder them

Chill out…

Forgive us saint messi !

⁠@@sibaroochiyou are forgiven!

Eddo, the type of guy to pick a fight with a tree

Bro thinks Brazil is only Rio de Janeiro 😂

Sure about that?

No estoy de acuerdo, la inflación continuará

@@DJSt3rling yo no dije que no continuara de hecho hasta USA tiene inflación la maquilla la FED con bonos del tesoro sino tendría mas. Yo dije que va a bajar no desaparecer.

Please explain this “murder fiat food”, I’m interested

@@JakeRunnels He just means "Fiat Foods" in other words, artificial foods, Pizza, garbage. Food with little to no nutritional value

@DesignedInNola he’s calling the Argentinian food I described fiat food? Idk sounds weird, plus didn’t say I was eating that

Are you wearing a helmet?

@@JakeRunnelsonly when I plough your mom

Lol

Ya

It benefits visitors dummy

Down there at your home

Immigration from those countries you just mentioned into Argentina is what actually ruined what could’ve been a great civilization and no one talks about it. They just sit around baffled, “I wonder what happened to Argentina, it was going so well until… 🤔”

​@@JakeRunnels Populist Governments, Demagogues, Communists, Tyrants, "Socialists", Hypocrites!! Etc.... Sadly, that's what happened!
