A quota law in Argentina that promoted the inclusion of transgender people in the work force — unprecedented in Latin America except in neighboring Uruguay — pulled her from the capital’s street corners into the Foreign Ministry last year.

Yet just months after Salva got her first paycheck, right-wing President Javier Milei entered office and began slashing public spending as part of his state overhaul to solve Argentina’s worst economic crisis in two decades. Abruptly fired in a wave of government layoffs, Salva said her world began to unravel.



In progressive Argentina, the LGBTQ+ community says president has turned back the clock

I imagine he means things like protected classes or DEI programs providing equity to perceived people who need it or college admission race quotas. Not things such as the VA giving healthcare to combat vets for free for example.

How is it idiotic? The State has no responsibility to arbitrarily cater to one group over another.

What 'favoritism' do I value?

The media loves hang the moniker “right-wing” on anyone they disagree with. Notice how no democrat or politician from another country who’s a leftist is ever labeled left wing by the media?

I've noticed that before. It's a nice little low key and subliminal propaganda tool to let people know they're a rabid racist that wants to shoot a baby in the face with their AR-15

In other words, she wasn't qualified for the job in the first place. She was there only because a quota system demanded it.

Tough shite. No one should be getting a job just because of their "pronouns".

I favor people who are smart, honest and work hard. You may call that favoritism. It's actually meritocracy. And the left hates it.

I agree 100%. But would you hire a trans that fits your description?

No, because I don't want an employee with serious mental issues. It's kinda like choosing a girlfriend. She might be very smart and very pretty. But if she has tattoos all over the place it's a warning of mental disease that I don't want to deal with.
