These ppl are the real peruavians, proud incas descendents who fight n will die for their country. No peruvian is white, no peruvian is black, no peruvian is mixed race.
Real Peruvians are NATIVE SOUTH AMERICAN! Everybody else are GARBAGE.
Still run by Europeans….
NATIVE INDIANS MUST TAKE OVER….
War criminals corporations of the west n nato nations
Something that is never going to happen in the USA and some parts of Europe.
The systemic problems in Peru are very complex and intertwined, something like what you see in places like Ukraine except that instead of "oligarchs" Peru (as well as many other Latin American countries) has a group of powerful families that have had a back handed, heavy "influence" on nearly all sectors of society. These families have had generational control over Peruvian life, with most of them descending from European elitists, which although they pretend to be patriotic, these families only see the country as their playground and one which they can continue to amass fortunes by working hand in hand with corrupt politicians of which, most Peruvian politicians, especially the those in the congress perpetuate their own power by engaging in bribes and special "contracts" that favor companies where are owned by these elitist families. Another factor involved here is that these groups of elites see the native Peruvians, in other words those of Amerindian descent as being "second class citizens", undesirable, uncivilized but most importantly, their much needed source of cheap, uneducated labor to work in the fields and factories that these elitists own, and thus, it's most imperative to the elitists to make sure not only that the Amerindians do not receive a complete education but that they always remain in poverty, least the awaken and take power away from the elitists. To make matters worse, nearly the entirety of the Peruvian mass media, newspapers, radio, televised news, periodicals, etc are owned by these same families, thus they will slant, distort, and report only according to the wishes of the Euro descent elitist families, most of whom live in Lima, the capital of Peru. There are also the political factions which can and do wield power as well, but again, keep in mind that they strike bargains with all of the above, so it's like an incestuous tide pool we are dealing with. Right now, the most powerful and most corrupt political group which has nearly monopolized power in one way or another but especially in congress for the past 40 years is the Fujimori family, who of course are the family of the disgraced and currently imprisoned Alberto Fujimori, whom together form not only the most corrupt and powerful political machine in Peru but who operate more like a political version of the mafia. The daughter of Alberto Fujimori who's name is Keiko was the opposing candidate running against president Pedro Castillo a left leaning populist and Peruvian of native descent. Very similar to what we saw happen in the United States, Keiko Fujimori has lost twice in national elections, and both times in run-off elections with her afterwards showing out of control rage at her loss and vowing to take down the winning and duly elected winner. Remember that she and her party controlled the majority in congress regardless of her losses, so as we have seen, regardless of who wins the presidency, if it is not Keiko, that winner will face an ungovernable situation with Keiko's majority in congress setting trap after trap for any new president with the corrupt and controlled news media joining in to destroy the popularity of any new president until the those who control the congress are confident enough that they can gather a majority vote to remove the sitting president for whatever charges they've been able to create against any president, all while the news media plays their part in creating scandal after scandal to support this joint effort. Then the vote comes, the sitting president is removed, and the congress places a puppet of their own prearranged choice in the presidents seat. This is what has been happening for the past 30 years, over and over and over. In nearly each case, when the ultra corrupt Peruvian congress has passed a vote to remove a sitting president, it's been precisely when that president was about to invoke emergency corruption measures, precisely to start dismantling the the nearly perfect corruption machine that the congress has created and for which the current Peruvian constitution was written, and who was it that put this corruption enabling constitution in place? Yeah….. none other than disgraced and now imprisoned Alberto Fujimori, the father of Keiko Fujimori. Starting to make sense now? Now do you understand why the average Peruvian is completely disgusted with this entire system and are demanding that this constitution be annulled and replaced with a national constituency? Even now, the news media in Peru is giving a completely false narrative of the situation, but for the domestic audience as well as for the worlds eyes. The vast majority of hundreds of thousands of people you see protesting have absolutely nothing to do with terrorist groups rather they are the majority population of Peru which now for hundreds of years have been kept in poverty and uneducated all while the elite of Lima live lives of ultra luxury and sap the funds that are generated by the many other areas of Peru and take it for their own desires rather than using those funds to develop the Andean highland areas and Amazon jungle areas from where those funds came, from the agriculture and mining activities that take place there but yet which the local people end up seeing nothing for other than the toxic destruction of their areas. It is thanks to the ability now for people across Peru to communicate with each other, be it though cell/text or social media that has served to awake them and give them the ability to organize and unite to fight against the evil corruption machine that currently has all of the power in Peru. Look at the people's faces, listen to the tone in their voices, even if you don't understand their language, you can clearly see, they are in this as a fight for their life and are willing to die to bring about a better and more just Peru in which the government works for the people and to improve the lives of ALL Peruvians, not just the elite few who happen to have a whiter complexion. Remember, this has been going on for HUNDREDS of years now, and Peru has had the ability to completely change this many times over, during it's cycles of economic booms but yet the people of Peru have witnessed over and over and over again, how those economic booms take place, billions, hundreds of billions of dollars flow in to the country, then suddenly, it all disappears, the rich, corrupt elitist families and congress people end up much richer, and the rest of the country (other than Lima) sees little or nothing and continues to live in shelters made of wood scraps, cardboard and mud. THIS is what the fight is against!!!
