@Hi_Henry
First of all, before giving any explanation, I already dislike the fact that the article makes mentions of political/historical inaccuracy. TL;DR: Perón in his time was elected by popular vote. He was not the dictator they say he was. The man wrote books explaining his point of view, his philosophy and doctrine. One should start there, and then evaluate him. I get tired of this very poor and biased view that the Anglo-sphere has of Argentina's 20th century history.
Now, it is true that the left has been infiltrating and mutating since the 60's and 70's in some ways similar to the way it did in the USA...(
This fact occurred and continues to occur because, as one part of the article states, European thought has always been taken as a reference -Lacan-. Argentines have a cultural identity halfway between what is our own and original and what is imported (or injected) from the northern hemisphere. The most nationalistic Argentines understand that at some point we must leave behind the European categories of left or right and not fall into the pendulum movements between these two.) Especially as it happened on both coasts. We can point to California on one side (currently a woke / left bastion) and I think we can mention for example New York on the east coast as another progressive / left / woke bastion. Please correct me if I am wrong on this last point.
Okay, where am I going with this? The thing here is that we Argentines can become quite
NEUROTIC. Yes, we are extroverted and confident to the point of having no filters even with strangers or foreigners, but it's part of that neurotic thing. A lot of that neuroticism is a thing that feeds back between the way Argentines are and the constant instabilities of the country. If you want to learn about the neurosis of the average Argentinean, just watch the World Cup.
To sum up, what you will always hear from an Argentine or Argentines is that we are very
PASSIONATE. A lot of emotion. Needless to say what happens with so much emotion when we look at it under the microscope of esoteric work here in the forum.
So it is not surprising that many of us (obviously I include myself) went to a psychologist at some point. It is not taboo to talk or say that we went to a psychologist once. And if we do not go to the psychologist, we Argentines in our collective neurosis form small circles of friends in which from time to time, you meet at the house of one of them, for example on a Sunday and make the traditional asado (barbecue), which while you are doing it for hours the group of friends gather around the fire and serves as a kind of group therapy where they tell each other everything, or almost everything about what happened during the week. The same goes for yerba mate. Meeting and talking... and talking while sharing the bitter drink.
For foreigners I know that if they say they went to a psychologist, among them it almost means that they are really sick in the psyche, and they are afraid of being seen as crazy and a danger to others.
I hope this can clarify your doubts and answer the question.-
