Is Buenos Aires as /lit/ as they say? It has the most bookstores per person in the world.

Argentinian here. No, porteños are rude, vulgar New Yorker/Parisian wannabes.

I assume you mean Latam? Montevideo might be boring but it's better than BA imo. You could also visit Cordoba in Argentina itself.

Thank you for the advice, anons. I'm going to look into Montevideo and Córdoba. I have seen mixed opinions about Buenos Aires so I will keep researching. I am especially interested in the culture and literature of Latin America.

Argie here. There are a few nice places, but overall it's filled with niggers and peroniggers + streets are full of literal garbage, thanks to retards.
Not to mention, tourists are the main targets, so having cash is a really bad idea if you're planning your vacations here.
Also, tons of socialists here

From what I know of Argentina, it seems they have a habit of thriving for 70+ years, before imploding and suffering economic chaos, only to repeat the cycle again. Why?

[Anonymous No.16811642]

I can't compare with other places, but I'd say it's more artsy than /lit/. Lots of film school students, musicians, translators, law and psychology students, etc.
The hipsters from Buenos Aires, chiefly Palermo, are into typical hipster shit, but their space is mostly coopted by middle and upper class fags looking to get wasted and fucking (women are pretty slutty).
There are a ton of museums, theaters and bookstores. We have "Noches de..." where one night, bookstores will remain open during the night hours, with free public transport, also Open museum nights, where museums charge no entry fees. One of the biggest book fairs in Latam takes place in Buenos Aires. There's always a new record of attendance.
Urban architecture is fairly European. Some very nice buildings and turn of the century and early 20th century little palais. Old apartment buildings are pretty French on the inside. Lots of ugly looking modern buildings though.
The streets are not exactly the cleanest. The streets are full of beggars and it's easy to get mugged or shot :)
The better cultural centers almost coincide with the legal and corporate centers of the city, so the downtown commute is a mess. After hours it gets kinda dangerous.
The Philosophy and Letters public university is full of marxist and peronist dirty hipsters or brainwashed madmen and madwomen. They make a pretty cool clique though, if you lean that way.
If you can attach yourself to some humanities students or young pros in art, marketing and visual stuff, chances are you could have a fairly /lit/ experience, but it's pure drug and booze ridden decadence for the most part.
The rest of the country is mostly ignorant trash. Some very nice landscapes and shit, but I wouldn't call something like the Swiss Alps "literary".

This is a great description, anon, thank you. I had the impression that it was a safe city, at least safer than most of Latin America, but I'm going to reconsider now.

>>16811421
Thank you as well. I don't really get what a stereotypical peronist is like though because I am unfamiliar with the ideology.

I lived in Rosario and there were a bunch of bookstores. Never did see alot of people reading much, but that's probably because of the public crime. I did know some hot lit hoes there. The problem was that they and other Argie women only ever want to sleep. (Ultra lazy)

>I had the impression that it was a safe city
It's as safe as any other big capital city in the continent and tourism is a big chunk of our GDP. Buenos Aires has a ton of CCTV and police everywhere remotely touristy.
It all boils down to bad luck. If you act like a tourist, you'll attract attention. If someone tries to mug you, you shouldn't resist at all, and you'll at least get away with a scare and your life.
The rest of the country depends, but it's pretty safe. Patagonia and all those places are okay.

I was robbed twice when I lived in Argentina. Once in Rosario and once in Concordia, Entre Rios. I blame both of those on my love of foot travel though. I did know a number of people who were burglarized.

Thie thing I hated the most was that villeros would be resettled into small towns by the government.

She's a clever bitch and some portion of the dirt is most likely true. Literary speaking, at least she has a modicum of rhetoric which the also corrupt and useless Engineer could never dream to achieve.
But I no longer give a fuck about politics. Listening to the retarded media, the politicians, the congressmen. It's too depressive. This country is fucked no matter whoever rules. Our only hope would be some sort of war or nuclear holocaust in Europe or maybe Asia that forced their people to mass migrate here. And that's never going to happen, so we better wait for the end of the world or some alien shit to put us out of our misery.
