      people argue alot about the effect of widespread firearm ownership in the US and that's fine but maybe its good to mix in some international hypotheticals in the other direction to increase your models imaginary power

      the gangs are forcing residents to vote for Maduro because they fear they would be displaced by a new government this is remarkable. nonstate stationary bandits cooperating to prevent a state from forming and displacing them are there other examples of this?pic.twitter.com/hr8itjLHVM

          There’s a couple towns in Mexico where I’ve heard of similar stuff, including stealing voting booths and what not to avoid a President who’ll effectively crack down on them, but as far as I can tell this Venezuelan gang is providing more benefits to those in their territory

          See police cooperation with triads in Hong Kong, most notably on 21/7/2019 when the police conspicuously left and 999 was unavailable during the Yuen Long station attack.

          Part of the quid pro quo is for the gangs to open up space for Bukele’s party to campaign. What this means in practice is that Nuevas Ideas would have exclusive access to campaign in gang-controlled areas in the run-up to elections in 2021. https://www.insightcrime.org/news/analysis/el-salvador-nayib-bukele-gangs/ …

          I think this is common for failing states; especially with some semblance of order provided by the local gang, popular support makes it difficult to uproot Do we do essentially the same thing (mostly sans violence), with reps/governors in each state?
