Argentina, laboratory and mirror of the world How to transform a carnivorous people into transgenic vegans

Version française Versión española Versão portuguesa

Until 1948, the ‘Argentine’ metro station in Paris was called Obligado, commemorating Argentina’s victory on November 20, 1845, when the Argentine Confederation inflicted a decisive defeat on Anglo-French forces at Vuelta de Obligado on the Paraná River. Made a public holiday under the name National Sovereignty Day in 1974, November 20 was moved this year to November 24 to allow for a long weekend from the 21st to the 24th, a gift from the Milei government to the hospitality industry. To mark the occasion, we are publishing a short book that explains how badly Argentina’s “national sovereignty” is in shape. Presentation below.

“ In the richest territory on earth lives a poor, malnourished people with starvation wages. Until we Argentines recover control of our wealth for the nation and the people, we will not be a sovereign nation or a happy people. ”

Arturo Jauretche (1901-74)

This collection includes three articles published in October and November 2025 on the decline and challenges of the catastrophic crisis affecting Argentina, a country that was the “breadbasket of the world” in the last century and has now become the world’s genetically modified waste dump. About 18 million hectares (with annual variations) – half of the land dedicated to “major crops” – are devoted to the cultivation of genetically modified soybeans, a truly diabolical cereal that now “feeds” not only the cows and pigs of half the planet, starting with China and Israel, but also the children in schools from the Rio de la Plata to Tierra del Fuego.

Argentines, the world’s largest consumers of meat after Americans, can no longer afford the meat they love so much for their asados, the South American version of barbecue or meshwi. Seven out of ten Argentine children have nothing to eat. Javier Milei, the man with the chainsaw, is not solely responsible for this catastrophe; he is merely the executor of dirty tasks, serving the Yankees and their cronies at the World Bank and the IMF. The Chinese play a not insignificant role in the bluffing game that is played at the expense of the poor and impoverished. They took Comrade Deng Xiaoping’s motto literally: “It doesn’t matter if the cat is black or white, the essential thing is that it catches mice.” We are all potential Argentine mice. Read and you will understand.
