I am a big fan of Nayib Bukele. You might have noticed that already based on the number of Hive posts I dedicated to this guy so far. As he indirectly said in one of his speeches, he kind of put El Salvador on the map...
Where was this country three years ago? Well, geographically it was in the same place as it is right now, but when you look at the changes that have occurred since the guy took the helm of the country in his hands, you can not overlook the difference.
El Salvador has become one of the safest places on earth after being one of the worst when it came to excessive rates of criminality, for so many years. Gangs no longer rule the country and the political leaders are no longer making soldiers out of the teens and sending them to fight other people's wars.
Naiyb Bukele often times compares the old El Salvador with a colony. A colony does not have sovereignty of its own, it doesn't have its own leadership and it is easily manipulable by external powers. El Salvador is no longer a colony. It is a free country right now.
But is it really "that sovereign"(sort to speak) as he wants it to be? As long as it doesn't have its own currency we can't reach a consensus in that regard. El Salvador is still using the USD as a legal currency, but for about two years or so Bukele has integrated Bitcoin as a legal tender as well.
Bitcoin is by design a "sovereign currency" and that becomes a plus for the Central American country. Bukele's decision to "bet on Bitcoin", the way he did, by making it legal tender and creating a Bitcoin treasury for his country while promising to build a mining facility using volcano energy and a Bitcoin city kind of played a huge role in "making El Salvador public".
When you have the IMF on your ass, you know you're up to something... And this man has so far managed to make a lot of friends but also plenty of powerful enemies in his current three years of presidency. The big leaders and the leading forces of the world don't want countries such as El Salvador to exist. They rather prefer these ones existing at a colonial level so they can better dictate them.
My country is in a pretty similar situation, and whenever I think of Bukele, I remember Nicolae Ceausescu(Romanian communist leader), JFK, Saddam Hussein, and Ghadafi... All of them got murdered because they were becoming a threat to the centralized authorities that are after total control of the world.
Ceausescu made Romania, back in 1989, the first country in the world that paid its foreign debt entirely, Kenedy exposed the deep state in America, Hussein was not the man of the establishment, there were talks about him and Ceausescu working on creating an international bank, and Libya under Ghadafi was a good place to live for Lybians. But the elites had to kill all of these and trash the countries that were about to rise from the dust.
I fear that Bukele might end up in the same situation as the above-mentioned leaders. The man is a nationalist, who cleaned the country of scumbags and made Bitcoin legal tender thus giving the option for the citizens to choose between the dollar and a true sovereign currency for their businesses and everyday transactions, he is very bold in sustaining his status and the one that his country recently earned.
If the world would have more leaders like him, the world would be a better place, but we are "not allowed" to have em because the elites behind the muppets in charge of almost all of the countries don't want that to happen. These ones(the elites) are intentionally selecting weak leaders(see Biden, Johnson, etc) that they can control and push them into high governing positions so they can control society as a whole through them.
I love what Bukele is doing and I hope he's gonna make it alive out of his mission.
Thanks for your attention,
