Damned if you do, damned if you don’t
David Adler (Jacobin) on foreign media “pundit” and their reading of AMLO:
… the commentariat shows its cards. Their key concern is not the will of the people, but the will of the markets. When the Wall Street Journal warned of a “strain on the rule of law,” they were not referring to slaughtered students, disappeared women, or rampant corruption at all levels of Mexican government. They were worried primarily about property rights.
