You’re very confused buddy. If you post crappy “jokes” on the internet, be prepared to receive feedback on them. Hopefully next time you’ll actually have something funny to say. Otherwise, “just be about your way”.

That has absolutely nothing to do with the “joke” being bad, and that had no humour in it at all. You were just being a dick. Granted, there’s a fine line between “dark” humour and being a dick, but you most certainly crossed it.

That’s a pretty distasteful and unfunny joke, by the way.

How can uruguay, being just an argentinian province, be better? The math doesn’t track.

Except that they didn’t? I’m not stubborn, they’re just wrong.

Gottem

That does not equate to having the same price for everything.

That’s completely besides the point. You said that they could have different prices due to having the same currency in the store. However, there are plenty of stores with the same currency and different prices.

Also, how much ARS is worth when compared to USD has absolutely nothing to do with why the store is in USD. For a period of time a few years ago, there was quite a bit of inflation and prices had to be updated constantly. To avoid this, they switched it back to USD. Customers paying in ARS does not mean that publishers/devs get paid in that currency.

You clearly think you’re more knowledgeable than you actually are.

You’re comparing different states with different countries. So no, it’s not an accurate analogy. It is succint, but it’s still incredibky misguided. Maybe you should google words before using them?

Not really an analogy. OP is asking about different countries, not states. That thing about the euro being the same currency for all those countries doesn’t track either. Prices in the Argentinian store are in USD but it still has regional pricing.

That abomination does not look like a mate. I mean the mate part does but the yerba looks like a disgusting paste.

What is?

Ok, finally found the source of all of this ridiculousness. Here you can see where they’re supposedly selling this meat. It’s a single butcher shop in the whole country and what they’re doing is literally illegal. There are no bromatology processes to ensure that this type of meat is safe for human consumption because it’s not approved by our national organisms. You literally cannot legally sell donkey meat in the country.

The only reason most news stories are about people in “Argentina” consuming this is engagement. That’s it. If the title were “single butcher shop in Argentina sells illegal meat to offer lower prices” then people might not be as interested.

This whole thing is a big ol’ nothingburger. That’s why most national news outlets aren’t even covering it.

You might want to check what that actually means before accusing people.

They don’t talk about meat, but not “donkey” meat. Because it’s not used for human consumption. You’re more than welcome to prove me wrong, but you haven’t. I believe that already speaks for itself.

And yeah this type of news bothers me because it promotes an erroneous idea of what Argentina is actually like. I once hosted a German student for a month and, while the guy was pretty chill, he was expecting my city to be full of cows and nature. Once I was watching How I Met Your Mother and when they go to Argentina they should either hippies on a beach living on what appears to be a jungle or an extremely run down hotel in Buenos Aires. Neither were even remotely close to real life.

Hate speech is always wrong. No need to explain anything.

“the government” did not talk about donkey meat at all. Maybe you should read the article before posting anything? Also, I didn’t live a “long time” in Argentina, I lived there my whole life. And I can confim that this story is absolutely false.

Oh, and we’re not on reddit.

You can say “fuck”, it’s ok.

“Indigenous latino” is so damn broad that I have literally no idea what you’re referring to, exactly.

wanna talk about xenophobia? Argentinans are masters at it

Seems like you either encountered some shitty people (believe me, you can find those in any country) or you’re just a rather unpleasant person that mistook being treated as such, for xenophobia. From where I’m standing, both seem entirely plausible.

And how is it xenophobic to point out they elect morons and far right trash? Thats just fact.

Firstly, who from the previous governments in the past decades was democraticatically elected and was “far right”? Second, show me a country that hasn’t elected at least a few shitty presidents in the past few decades. I’ll wait.

Thats like saying im xenophobic cause I hate trump

You might want to revisit the definition of the word.

Ps. I know a bunch of Argentinans and they insist they are of European bloor, Spaniards and Italians.

Well, my great-grandparents where german and spanish and tons of friends’ grandparents are first generation european immigrants. There’s a reason why so many people in Argentina have european passports. I couldn’t care less about that. Why does that bother you though?

They are offended if you lump them in with other Latinos. They think Latinos are garabage, they no joke say they’re white

Who cares if they’re offended? Like I said, shitty people are everywhere. And why does it bother you that some argentinians are white? I’ve been spoken to as if I were a local in Italy, spain, germany, austria and france. If they’re “white” then I guess so am I? That doesn’t mean I identify as european. I am and will always be produdly argentinian.

You sound like you have some issues dude. See a therapist, it might help.

Please, show me a single real world example where “donkey meat” is being sold or consumed. I’m not speaking about something I researched online. I live in Argentina and have travelled to many different cities there as well.
