Is there a good dictatorship?

By Stephanie Henaro

What happened in El Salvador and AMLO's 20 constitutional reforms lead us to ask ourselves a question that by simple logic, it seems we should not ask: Is there a good dictatorship?

World history has shown that no, when revolutionaries win they become "conservatives" and when they send institutions to hell, they want to stay.

Power is what gives them life and in the case of El Salvador, the ballot boxes have wished long life to Nayib Bukele, while burying the Constitution with his non-reelection. Because the desire to live in peace, away from gangs and violence, was enough for Salvadorans to agree to make a democratic sacrifice, which after removing the beating heart, eliminated the presence of opposition parties at the polls and became the chronicle of a dictatorship foretold.
