SAN JOSE, Costa Rica — In a STUNNING display of national amnesia, Costa Ricans are set to REWARD failure and install a puppet president, handing the keys of their collapsing democracy to the handpicked successor of the MOST DANGEROUS leader in modern history. Despite presiding over the BLOODIEST period this “peaceful” nation has ever seen, outgoing strongman Rodrigo Chaves has HYPNOTIZED the populace with pure, unadulterated propaganda, and they are lining up to vote for his continuity candidate, Laura Fernández.
The nation is DROWNING in blood, transformed from an eco-paradise into a NARCO-BATTLEGROUND where cartels fight for control. Yet, in a masterclass of political gaslighting, Chaves has CONVINCED voters the soaring murder rate is everyone’s fault BUT HIS. He points fingers at judges and past presidents while cozying up to regional autocrats, even importing El Salvador’s prison-state blueprint from the controversial Nayib Bukele. This is not governance; it is a DICTATORSHIP IN THE MAKING, masked by tough talk.
The opposition is in SHAMBLES, a gift Chaves did not earn but gladly exploits. Meanwhile, he has BRAZENLY broken election laws by campaigning for Fernández, using his presidential immunity as a GET-OUT-OF-JAIL-FREE card—not once, but twice, after also escaping corruption allegations. The system is RIGGED, and the people are CHEERING for their own chains.
Voters, paralyzed by fear and seduced by empty promises of stability, are preparing to grant Fernández a coronation. They speak of “continuing the good governance” and “opening eyes,” a chilling testament to how effectively a leader can REFRAME CATASTROPHE as progress. The stage is set not for an election, but for a hostile takeover of a nation’s soul.
This Sunday, Costa Rica won’t just choose a president; it will seal its fate as the latest domino to fall to a new, insidious brand of authoritarianism, proving that a population can be manipulated into voting for its own demise.
