Argentina, 2026. Regarding our exchange of ideas, and especially political ideas, the diagnosis that years ago ushered in the spirit of the times of the divide seems to be confirmed—that “zeitgeist” that has ceased to be a passing fog and has become the prevailing climate. Cancel culture has become nationalized. And perhaps it's wise to distrust that impersonal “has,” because we have all done it together and continue to do so, with the almost automatic ease offered by the block button on some social networks. It's a minimal gesture—barely the slightest pressure of a finger on the screen—in which, nevertheless, one biography cancels another, and not only the community bond that united them. A single touch is enough. The other person, with their face, their story, and their words, vanishes from the horizon as if they had never existed.
