#1 The West in general has "orientalized" itself.

Our elites are perceiving communist China, Russia and the Islamic world not only as competitors but also as role models.

A principled political stance for freedom of speech was once largely a Western consensus position but is unimaginable in the present political climate.

Western elites being seduced by the powers that oriental governance would bring them isn't a new phenomenon (e.g. Alexander, Cesar, Heliogabal...).

It is a harbinger of bad times for everyone.

Our esteemed elites should know better...

....and partners, with a globalist twist of course.

#3 Fascinating article. Interesting origins:

Nayib Armando Bukele Ortez was born on 24 July 1981 in San Salvador.[3] His father was Armando Bukele Kattán, a businessman and industrial chemist of Palestinian origin, and his mother is Olga Marina Ortez. Bukele's father converted from Christianity to Islam in the 1980s, became an imam, and founded four mosques in El Salvador; Bukele's mother is Roman Catholic. Bukele's paternal grandparents were Palestinian Christians who immigrated to El Salvador from Jerusalem and Bethlehem in 1921; his maternal grandfather was Greek Orthodox, and his maternal grandmother was Roman Catholic.

#4 Calling opposing political members terrorists.

Arrest, prosecution, and calls for assassination of leading politicians.

Open support and arming of political regimes which have suspended elections.

Open support of political regime which had very funny vote counting.

Implicated in a failed military coup.

Implicated in a color revolution.

Yeah, the last four years is not a good track record.
