Agustín Laje presented his book before almost a thousand people, reinvindicated the cultural battle and made the “Dream Team” of its ultra -right -wing Latin America

“A photo, Agustín, a photo!” Agustín Laje did not supply, he tried to please signing books, shaking hands, crouched on the stage of the José Hernández Sala from the Book Fairbut it was visible that it cost him. A mixture of shyness and scenic vertigo prevented him from lowering and hugging with those who gave him a deal of idol. To tell the truth, their assistants would have not allowed it either, the majority of a very neat short hair. Over there, before almost a thousand people, The essayist shared its denigration vision of the state, With provocations of precise dedication: “To that embryo of the state we are in time to abort it. ” He also urged activism in social networks and denied the key points of humanism of the 21st century, like The international system and animal rights.

A consecration act ended, one in which Javier Milei’s inspiring – his organic ideologist and intellectual – He approached that fire that the president spreads in his presentations before those followers that make him a high temperature party. Before almost a thousand people, Laje presented his book Globalism (Harper Collins), published in 2024. Laje is an essayist, lecturer, and Cordoba political scientist of the new fundamentalist right. He is the founder and president of the Fundación Libre, a think tank conservative. It opposes equal marriage, homoparental adoption, euthanasia and to abortion, even in cases of rape. It also promotes the cultural battle against progressivism, which it calls “cultural Marxism.” He wrote a biography of Milei along with Nicolás Márquez.

On Saturday afternoon he accompanied him in the presentation another “lighthouse” of this ideology: the professor and rector of the ESAADE University, Alberto Benegas Lynch (H), The same that when Milei was in a political campaign in 2023 proposed: “For consideration and respect for my Catholic religion, I think it would be necessary to imitate what President Roca did and suspend diplomatic relations with the Vatican while the totalitarian spirit prevails there. ”

There was a delay at the beginning of the act of one hour. A fast movement of several people made it possible to enter the first row the VIP guests. First, the Minister of Justice Mariano Cúneo Libarona; the secretary of state cult and civilization, Nahuel Sotelo; the Director of human Rights of the Foreign Ministry, Basset; The national deputies of Lla, Alberto Tiburcio “Bertie” Benegas Lynch (with red shirt from the Red Hot Chili Peppers), Nicolás Fernando Mayoraz and Santiago Santurio. The personal documentary filmmaker of Milei also came to the libertarian appointment, James Oria; the president’s photographer, Macarena Rodríguez; The South Leave Editor – Editorial where Laje published some of his books – Andrés Mega; The fat Pabloone of the drivers of the fucking streaming channelamong others.

Beyond that row of organic, the presence of Families with children, groups of expectant young people, male alone and women in groups. A mix of curious and fans? People with jeans, spent shoes, sports divers, some with mate and thermos. The faces denoted curiosity, maybe Esperanza. Active cell phones in your hands, many They left nothing or anyone without photographing or filming.

When everyone settled, Benegas broke into an academic conference tone and toured fundamental surnames of the libertarian path, both economists and political thinkers. He argued that “the medullary part of democracy is the respect, guarantee to the rights of people; and the mechanical, formal, accessory and secondary part, is the counting of votes.” He also launched slogans such as: “Human Rights is a fairly grotesque redundancy because rights cannot be human, they are not mineral, vegetables or animals”; And that “no Marxist ever explained how the logical structure of a proletarian, from that of a bourgeois, is differentiated by referring pejoratively against the concept of social class.

Next, finally Laje conquered the centrality of the act And he differentiated: “Globalization is an economic phenomenon, globalism is a political phenomenon.” What are the characteristic institutions of globalism?, Asked and replied: “They are not so much of the state-state, but, above all, those of supra-state organizations, supranationals, organisms that began to multiply in the second half of the twentieth century.” In his book Laje argues that Globalism is institutionalized in sometimes completely public organizationsother times completely private, but in most cases they are public-private hybridations. These are sometimes called “public public organizations”, sometimes they are called “NGO” and sometimes they take the name of “global forums.”

In this definition, Laje raises much of his conception of what the State is: “Then, the creature, which has been given life, is not a state, is a supersed that still, however, is in embryonic state. That is, we are on time – we are in time – we are in time – we are in time – we are in time – we are on time –how likes green handkerchief girls – to abort it. Only that in this case we would do good and not an evil. We are in time to deactivate that embryo that develops under that inertia of progressive accumulation of political power that is of the nature of these modern machinery, ”he caused and carried an applause with laughter.

In suit and black shoes and tie, he asked: “How can you fight globalism? On the one hand, with Cultural battle, That is, each of us has an active role, there are no excuses; We are in the era of social networks, today everyone can be heard and everyone has a moral and political responsibility to hear. But together with the cultural battle we must boost our electoral battles, the elections must be won. Because in the end, it is the State that ends up deciding whether or not to accompany that transfer of power towards international areas. ”

Laje finished his exhibition imagining a common destination for Latin America, with Argentina as a libertarian lighthouse that illuminates and drags the destinations of Chile, with Johannes Kaiser, the libertarian youtuber; in Peru, with the ultraconservator Rafael López Aliaga, current mayor of Lima; In Colombia, with the TV presenter, Vicky Dávilaand many others. “Imagine globalizing, not globalism, but resistance.”

Laje signed some books and went for the bottom of the stage. Below, hundreds of followers of all nuances were deconcentrated and seflies were taken with the fat Pablo. Already outside the room, a chronicler of the Carajo channel interviewed the attendees, who showed a contained enthusiasm. Some had hoped to surprise the president, or perhaps Karina Milei or not so secret Santiago Caputo. Almost in parallel, the three sides of the iron triangle were invoked in different rooms of the fair with biographical books or presidential controversies.
