After the conflict between the president of the PRO, Patricia Bullrich and the chief of staff from Buenos Aires Felipe Miguel, the tweeters interpreted the fact with humor. This is how the fake account did it @realPhillipMake, who decided to make a joke of the fight with a tweet. “I instructed my lawyer to initiate actions against @PatoBullrich for aggravated emotional damage and crimes against humanity. I have feared for my physical and spiritual integrity for a week. I can’t live with this fear, with the thought that maybe I’ll die.”
The account, posing as the real Felipe Miguel, continued to give details about his “complaint”, in a thread that, although it caused a lot of laughter, also confused some people. For example, the comedian John Acosta, recognized supporter of the PRO, asked “is it fake?”. And he was not the only one: many people entered into doubt, alleging in their comments how difficult it is to distinguish what is true from what is false in a political context as changing as the current one.
Another fact to highlight in the fake thread was the intervention of the journalist Thomas Mendez, fired from C5N for promoting an escrache at the home of Patricia Bullrich, who pointed out that Felipe Miguel should be careful in his confrontation with Bullrich. “Will Felipe Miguel really know who Patricia Bullrich is? A woman who in her adolescence already planted bombs in San Isidro and wherever her bosses ordered her. Will Felipe Miguel know of all her connections? I believe that he is capable of breaking his face and much more … ”, commented the journalist.
The origin of the fight
The conflict to which the joke alludes is the crossing that took place between Bullrich and Miguel during the presentation of “Why”, the new book by the former president Mauricio Macri. “Don’t cross me on TV anymore because next time I’ll break your face. It doesn’t mess with me, I warn you,” Bullrich threatened the Buenos Aires official, who first took it as a joke and then realized that it was something serious. One more chapter inside PRO: Bullrich is the great reference of the “halcones”, the toughest wing of the yellow party, while Miguel, official of the head of the Buenos Aires government Horacio Rodriguez Larreta, It is located on the sidewalk opposite with “the pigeons”, the most mediating spectrum. Both Bullrich and Larreta are the potential candidates to compete in an internal one for the 2023 elections.
“It was quite shocking, it was nonsense, violence is never acceptable and also if it is due to a different opinion, a limit is crossed and in this you have to be careful,” Miguel said in an interview with Edward Feinman in Radio Miter. “I never attack anyone; there may be different opinions, but they are not translated in terms of personal aggression; he crossed a line and violence is unacceptable,” she added. The origin of the fight between the two arose in August, when Bullrich criticized Rodriguez Larreta for removing the fences in the streets of Recoleta that prevented the passage of militants demonstrating in favor of Cristina Kirchner. On that occasion, Bullrich described said attitude as “lukewarm”, and Miguel declared that the words of the president of the PRO “were functional to Kirchnerism”.
In dialogue with Radio Miter, Bullrich clarified that he is not going to apologize, and to critics who considered his threat a violent attitude, he replied that “it is much more violent that the president of the PRO and a person who has been clearly anti-Kirchnerist are told that it is functional to Kirchnerism; that is the worst political violence in existence.”
