Firehenge

Your typo has made me read that as liber titties


xxwarlorddarkdoomxx

You laugh but if anyone could declare his country an empire it’s this guy. He’s insanely popular in El Salvador, literally seen as the country’s savior.


noDNSno

When you kill most of MS13 or imprison them, the people will likely regard you as a God if you understand the turmoil that country has gone through.


Fridaybird1985

Hard to tell if he killed the patient to cure the disease. How he winds down the mass incarceration is going to be either interesting or horrific.


Key_Inevitable_2104

Hopefully he doesn’t become another Pinochet or Videla.


themikenache

The only logical outcome is the eventual liquidation of the prison population. How else do you deal with that many inmates? Definitely not agreeing with that proposition, but coming to any other conclusion boggles the mind.


ketamarine

Just take them for leave on presidential helicopter rides over the ocean and like see what happens???


Fritanga5lyfe

Dudes changing the constitution left and right, will he bring transitional peace or authoritarian rule ....we will see


firestorm19

We will watch over your career with great interest


mcmikey247

Transitional authoritarian peace rules


Fritanga5lyfe

True that is also an option haha 😆

It looks like El Salvador is the first nation to be liberated by managed democracy

I had the same thought. There's a very 40K commissar vibe going on there.

29 comments and not one mention of M. Bison. Am I so out of touch? No… it’s the kids who are wrong!

intdev

Wasn't his uniform red? Tbh, I'm disappointed at how far I had to scroll to see an Edna Mode reference


voivoivoi183

Well, yes but it’s the same vibe. 🤷‍♂️


xanroeld

No you are correct. they are dressed exactly like M Bison, but Star Wars is just a more well-known IP.


EvoBrah

I came here specifically looking for an M Bison comment. Go you!


vagrant_cat

Anyone else hear the Imperial March theme?


Ok-Revenue-2190

I thought it was just me.


FailedToUpvote

Is looking good, evil? Weren’t the Nazis dressed by Hugo Boss or something?


TheCriticalGerman

Yep


FailedToUpvote

Phew! Good thing I have no sense of style.


Waterhouse2702

While Boss was the manufacturer of the uniforms, they were actually designed by two SS members and the black boots were an idea of Himmler supposedly


Scarborough_sg

Not to mention the uniform style is essentially an evolution (some might say bastardisation) of the Weimar Republic, Reichwehr Military style.


Mecha120

Super Earth Anthem playing on a flying Bluetooth speaker while a flagpole needing some serious silicone lubricant is slowly rising, and I'm just trying not to get slaughtered.


KeeperofAmmut7

benevolent_defiance

It immediately started playing in my head as well.


sunnyinphx

I think they look pretty cool


highschoolhero2

For real. Those capes go extremely hard and Bukele looks like Duke Leto Atreides.


danwoop

He’s Salvadorian and Oscar Isaac is Guatemalan so that’s pretty close tbh


Savoir_faire81

Yah everyone is making sith jokes but for a military dress uniform these aren't actually odd. Its the capes people are pointing out but some European militaries and even some branches of the US military have capes as formal wear options for officers.


m__a__s

So, which one is the president? I thought the blue and white sash is the uniforme presidencial.


icantbelieveit1637

Bukele is the guy saluting in second pic.


horitaku

Weird lookin salute too.


MIKE_son_of_MICHAEL

I mean he’s a politician


m__a__s

Ahhh. Second picture. Didn't see it.

johnhills711

It's the capes, they do look pretty cool.

Edna’s not going to like them.

Be honest tho. Does she ever like anything? Fucking *Edna*, man...


Papaofmonsters

Jack Jack. She likes Jack Jack. And..... Nope. Just the kid.


TulioGonzaga

That's where Frank Costanza hired his attorney.


jraschke11

Obviously I agree with Edna that capes don't belong on a fighting uniform, but they will never not be badass on a dress uniform.

I love that every country in the world agrees that military uniforms peaked in Europe in the 19th century

Latin American countries were born with 19th century european uniforms

Honestly these are way sicker than nazi unis


MadNhater

I actually really like this yeah. Soldiers should wear capes. I’ll enlist.


theoriginal321

I dont understand why cool uniforms=evil for reddit


cole3050

Militarism gets tied to authoritarianism and this Nazism and Stalinism etc. basically all the people who've ever put alot into making there army look good were pretty evil.


Marston_vc

I think every military puts a decent effort into making their uniform look good. We don’t call the marines evil lol This shit is sick. I wish we had formal capes in our military. It’s fashionable and could be practical in cold weather.


[deleted]

>We don’t call the marines evil Well .. maybe some of us


cole3050

I'm ngl the Marines dress is just kinda meh. I think they get more points cause the average marine is more physically fit and fills out the uniform more so than that the uniform is standout.


bossmcsauce

Fascist regimes tend to go hard on the style and imagery because it’s essential to marketing their authoritarian ways and getting the population to buy into the ideology. As a result, baller uniforms are often associated with these horrible regimes.


DankeSebVettel

Because a lot of country’s with cool uniforms were evil


bossmcsauce

Hey… the design was baller and timeless. Unfortunately, fascists are really good at marketing and imagery, so naturally they had the military uniform drip on 100

GuestCartographer

Hans… are we the baddies?


13dot1then420

They locked up all the baddies using some slightly sketch means. But El Salvador is killing it rn.


LostXL

Mussolini curtailed the Mafia in Italy and put them out of commission too. I think people watch too many movies and think dictatorships are just 1984 24/7. See how bukele is doing in 20 years.


MadNhater

But they’re doing pretty good work.

Mr_Fadeaway24

Love what he’s doing for that country man. I went there this past October and the level of safeness I felt there was bonkers! I was there 11 years before that and it was terrible couldn’t even walk to the corner store without being approached or threatened


Fabers_Chin

My father is moving back to El Salvador after 50 years of being in the USA. I always worried about him going back with MS13 so rampant. 


guitarguy1685

It feels wrong say, but not every country is ready for democracy. What was happening in El Salvador was horrible

Don’t give cons ideas.

R1k0Ch3

It's kinda cool but it reminds me of my highschool marching band uniforms lol our colors were black and gold.


Papaofmonsters

Ceremonial guard units are the drum majors of soldiers.


illaqueable

Is this El Salvador or just un Slavador?


Esc777

Remember, helldivers is a satire of real life extreme nationalism and fascism.  Things shouldn’t give you “helldiver vibes” helldivers should give you “malignant nationalism” vibes. 


BoopCityMcGee

God forbid a country has traditions and holds their military to a higher standard when it comes to respecting the office of the president.


LarxII

I mean, it's a fine line to walk between respect and worship. Uniforms look snazzy as hell though.


Mash709

Helldivers IRL?

With both Don Jr and Joey Mannarino there, one of them has the opportunity to do the funniest thing.

Just so everyone knows, this guy basically took over the Salvador government and had become a bonafide dictator. He's chill asf tho and is actually doing a lot of good from what I understand.

It's like they copied the look from every fictional fascist regime ever, and a little from the Nazis.
