On May 1, 2023 Nicolás Márquez crossed his great idol. As is often the case with the great anecdotes, it also went through an absolute chance. The writer came from presenting one of his books in Mexico City and returned to Mar del Plata Natal, when at the airport he saw in the distance that man who had marked him so much. Márquez can be a serial provocative that treats homo-sexuality as a disease, Pinochet as a hero Alfredo Astiz as a crisp with which he shared dozens of lunch, but when he sees his hero does the same thing as any son As a neighbor: he pounces to try to get a talk, a hug or a selfie. However, the outcome was not as he had imagined. It is that he barely approached Miguel Mateos the musician stopped him dry.
It is seen that the author of Hits as “Tirá up” and “Obsession” had seen some comment on the anniversary of March 24 – “Argentina lived a war against terrorism and we won it,” Márquez usually says- and does not He liked. Not at all. There were reproaches, hard accusations and some words uploaded. The writer, who has the tanned leather at the level that he can mock the disease of Esteban Bullrich, try to “depraved” a person who has just died by HIV, recommend the use of “napalm” to suppress a mobilization or flirt with The idea of the qualified vote felt the blow of having been rejected by his idol.
Although it is difficult to imagine Márquez dancing to the rhythm of “that comes whatever for better or bad”, Mateos was, for him, much more than his music. That’s why it hurt. The writer usually tells a story that marked him: when he was just over 20 years old he went to see Mateos to a Marplate theater with capacity for 2500 people, although there were no more than 200. However, the artist not only did The entire recital but even put more bares than expected.
From there Márquez took a “life lesson”: to believe in oneself, for more than in a moment the whole world of his back. Márquez, with his extreme ideas, spent almost all his adult life being a marginalized of society. Even his own idol came to reject him. He now changed the spirit spirit. And Javier Milei’s biographer, one of the intellectuals who most influence the president, prepares to conquer everything.
Back room
The writer is syndicated two great successes. One is having discovered Agustín Laje, when he was just a 15 -year -old igno. The Cordoba, who at that time was high school in a school, in his words, “very zurdito”, wrote him a letter after reading his book “The other part of the verification.”
This is the first work of Márquez’s long breath, in 2004, a text that began to make an unbridled name in the local ultraconservative world, where the price lowers the crimes of the last military dictatorship and claims its action: “The Armed Forces operated in response to the violence of which they and society were subject, their great merit was the epic of winning the internal war against terrorism and Marxist subversion with the consequent restoration of peace and order.” The book was the culmination of a path that for Márquez had started at age 18, when he joined the UCD of Álvaro Alsogaray. Then he continued with the entrance to Opus Dei to his 20, where he was baptized, and with a formation in the ideas of “tradition, family and property”, an organization born in Brazil that was self-proclaimed to be “the largest anti-communist civic-cultural civic movement of inspiration Catholic of the world “.
That tour was approaching the military family, especially from the hand of “Complete Memory”, a group that asked for the release of repressors and that Karina Mujica was driving, a leader with whom he was driving a radio program and ending in the ostracism after a hidden chamber watched out how it was prostituted. Laje saw in him a reference. And he got a big surprise when Márquez, who had been 13 years old, began to answer the missives and books. One day the young man went to see a presentation and since then they became a teacher and pupil. Laje, today the great reference of the new International Spanish -speaking right, usually tells the anecdote that changed his future forever. Márquez one day stopped him dry and told him that he was becoming a “militant” and that it was wrong: the right already had militants, what he lacked were “intellectuals.”
In 2016 they published together “The Black Book of the New Left”, the first great best seller of both. There Márquez makes a chapter called “homosexual self -destruction” where he compares gays with different diseases and calls them “sodomites”, among other insults. Anyway, the writer writes great success in the political field. “I imagine a synthesis between liberals that create in life from conception, conservatives who believe that tradition has to be at the service of progress and nationalists who do not confuse love of the country with the love of the State.” This was said in the Belgrano Auditorium, in 2019: the writer’s thesis is very similar to the base of what would be, two years later, Freedom advances. In fact, Milei and Laje followed those words from the same stage. Many in the libertarian world see almost a prophecy in those words.
Ideologist
“Who is someone from the right?” Milei wondered in 2018. “He is someone who does not bother whom you sell but does not let you get in bed with whom you want. A liberal liberal does not Annoy with who you sell or who you get into the bed. ” Thus explained the economist, for years, what was the difference between these two ideologies. However, today you don’t think the same. In the middle Márquez passed. Both met in that same year, when they gave a talk together. However, the great approach with Milei, the moment where the libertarian finished buying him, occurred at the end of 2021. Márquez made a bridge between him and Ricardo Bussi, the proud son of the genocidal tu-cumano, with which the writer has A long relationship.
Bussi would end up being the candidate in Tucumán de la Libertad advances, a space that at that time seemed very far from power. From there the link intensified, although it had some potholes. One was, for example, when Márquez and Laje dedicated a living on YouTube of an hour and a half to “El Loco”, the first biography about Milei that the author of this note wrote. Although the intention of the video is to insult and disqualify both the book and its author, the shot came out of the cylinder head. Milei called Márquez to recriminate him hard to have made “advertising” to work, of which he had been angry at him to reveal his mystical profile and his conviction of being the chosen one of God, with whom he says he can speak through his dead dog In any case, this relationship would have its climax with “Milei, the revolution that did not see coming”, the authorized and pamphletic biography he wrote about the president last year.
However, Márquez’s great influence goes through the field of ideas. The turn of Milei is notorious since its initial anarcococapitalism with which it was shown, for example, in Davos, where it pronounced an ignition speech against the “Woke Agenda.” There the president related homosexuality to pedophilia, through a case in the United States where a same -sex couple abused their adoptive children for two years. “In its most extreme version gender ideology constitutes smooth and plain child abuse, they are pedophiles,” he said.
It seemed almost taken from the Márquez Manual. That transformation of the libertarian has been appreciating from Trump’s victory, and had its first public expression in December. There the president, in the speech he gave at the CPAC he first claimed “right”. It was in the same event that he called to “give life for the cause”, a logic that goes against the most of the anarchococapitalism – ultra -unindivualist ideology that does not recognize any community expression – and where he spoke of a “war” between “good” good “And the” Evil “, another war expression that Márquez uses years ago -” We have no adversaries, we have enemies, “is one of its maxims. The writer left his mark.
Future
2025 can be moved for Márquez. A person in his environment says that he suspended a book that he planned to write about Pinochet – “made a magnificent management that ended Marxist tyranny and only suffered from terrorists not the Argentines of good,” he says about him – to clear his year . Will the offer of a candidacy arrive? “If they consider that I can contribute, I would be,” he said in an interview with “El País” in May 2024. Near Márquez some rule out this possibility. “Nicolás is very frontal, and it can be somewhat uncomfortable for the government to have it on a list.” It is a valid thesis, not only because of the controversial statements that it usually does but for other dark places in its history. One is the admiration that Márquez showed with Salvador Borrego, a Mexican Nazi intellectual author of the book “World Defeat” – where he tells himself as the “Bueno” side lost the Second War- and phrases like “The Jews, who are speculators, They are doing a world plot to weaken the world through homosexualism and abortion and then control it. “
Another is the cause made by his ex -partner for an abuse of both who, according to justice -which dismissed the cause -never existed. Today the daughter does not maintain a relationship with her father and this episode is remembered, in the form of an attack, daily by her critics. “They took something away from me, they generated a sadness and I do not ask the state to restore anything,” he said in “El País.” Another hobbies from Márquez is a constant barrage of criticism of Victoria Villarruel. That outcome is curious. At the start of her career she presented her first book and until they had an intimate relationship when both made a strategic defense course in the United States. In fact, they used to share lunches with Astiz, the most fearsome repressor of the ESMA, when he was stopped at the Naval Base of Zárate. The current Vice was there to see his mentor Alberto González, another repressor of that clandestine center, and Márquez to Astiz. Everyone used to eat together. Does the writer maintain with “The Angel of Death”? It is a mystery, although when the mother of the repressor died, a few years ago, Márquez called him to solidarity. Anyway, it is clear that the writer arrives to stay. The period climate changed in his favor and now he is the one who fills stadiums.
