There’s some confusing wording in this article.

Why are they calling the “gang leaders” revolutionaries? Different things, especially in El Salvador. And Calle 18 has never really been tied to the revolutionaries. What makes it more confusing is they supposedly supported the FMLN.

For those who didn’t grow up in El Salvador or reading the news there, that party was started by former (surviving) revolutionaries of the Salvadorian civil war, and didn’t explode in popularity but rather climbed to popularity over the years. The reason many members left that party is because eventually they did win power (they were pretty popular with the older generation after all, since the many were pro-revolutionaries during the civil war - which btw, the USA meddled in of course to quell), but once they won power they didn’t improve infrastructure and education, and the head leadership proved to be pretty corrupt.

Bukele among others then gained power by using the anger people felt at the betrayal of FMLN.

My point is you should probably read this straight from El Faro, because I think some things are being slightly misreported or lost on translation through the telephone game.

If you’re also looking for a different native news source for other reportings btw, there’s La Prensa Gráfica, but I think they only do Spanish.

Not if you speak Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, French, or Romanian.

Which combined is more people than just English speakers.

What? You don’t run your hard drives in the oven while baking brownies? It makes them zesty.

I think it supports Galaxy S9
