ARIn an episode of the Argentine TV show 'QR!', panelist José Amore analyzed what he called the 'anti-Argentina campaign', claiming there is a strategy on social media aimed at creating a negative international image of the country. He argued that this narrative portrays Argentina as 'deeply racist' and noted that the phenomenon has intensified in recent weeks due to statements and posts by political figures and users on social media. Amore questioned the discourse around racism in Argentina, emphasizing that while discrimination exists, labeling the country as deeply racist ignores its complex societal structure. He highlighted historical processes such as indigenous populations, European migrations, and other groups shaping national identity, arguing that reducing Argentina to a single characteristic overlooks its cultural and social diversity. Additionally, he pointed out that some political figures and their allies influence public discourse, contributing to a negative perception abroad. Amore also mentioned a rise in critical posts on social media, estimating around 340,000 posts questioning Argentina’s racial profile.
