Actually one more tweet. For more reading on this genocide, pick up a copy of Still Life With Bones: Genocide, Forensics, and What Remains by @AlexaHagerty. Incredibly moving and haunting read. https://t.co/bd3HHltASs
he’s referencing an execution method used in Argentina during the military dictatorship in the 70s/80s. people accused of “leftism” were dropped from planes/helicopters. The damage done to their bodies was described by forensic anthropologists as an unimaginable horror 1/🧵
The man who kissed them to mark them for execution lived decades after this and went on to infiltrate and betray several revolutionary groups in Argentina and other countries. He was not brought to justice until the 2010s. Fuck this joke and fuck anyone who laughed. 5/5
