What the Argentine actor Juan Diego Botto denounced
Far from being true, the screenshot was part of a campaign once morest the actor, Botto denounced. “They send me this screenshot of a forum in which a phrase is attributed to me that obviously I have never said, nor would it even cross my mind. This is how the far right works: they lie and feed their hate on falsehoods,” he tweeted.

Later, the Argentine shared another screenshot in which the user who had spread the alleged news attacked him. “This Montonero Argentine, the son of a terrorist, is very nervous regarding the arrival of VOX and the loss of the subsidies with which cocaine and young girls are paid. This son of a bitch is crying out to be put on a helicopter like they did with his father’s terrorist, ”the user who shared the article threatened.
The reference is to the so-called “Flights of Death” that existed during the last military dictatorship in Argentina, in which the genocidal military threw hundreds of people they had illegally kidnapped into the Río de la Plata. One of the victims of this modality was Diego Fernando Botto, also an actor and father of Juan Diego.

“Whoever posted the false news accuses my father of being a terrorist and asks that they throw me out of a helicopter as the Argentine military dictatorship did with my father. (They were planes, not helicopters, but anyway…). Killing those who think differently supported by lies…”, he tweeted.
The VOX political force was born a little over ten years ago, it has an ultra-conservative and ultra-nationalist tendency, and it confronts, ideologically, the popular parties of the region. It has nothing to do with ETA, which was a terrorist organization that sought the independence of the Basque Country from Spain through violence: its coups generated dozens of attacks and hundreds of deaths.
Juan Diego Botto was born on August 29, 1975 in Buenos Aires, but following the disappearance of his father, the actor’s mother went into exile in Spain. He is known for the film Martín (Hache) by Adolfo Aristarain.
