    For anyone who wants a quick summary: Bolivia's elected president fired a general. The general got pissy and tried to pull a coup. Unfortunately for him, he didn't tell his soldiers what he was up to. The soldiers broke down a door but didn't have further orders so they just stood around for a while. Once the soldiers made contact with the president, he explained the situation, ordered them to arrest the former general, and officially swore in the replacements for the guy who tried to pull the coup. The soldiers stayed loyal to the elected president, and followed his orders (as a result, they will not be charged with any offenses). The general was successfully arrested and everyone else just kind of went on with their day. By all appearances, the whole thing went over without bloodshed or major injuries. However, teargas and improvised explosives (fireworks) were deployed.
    Unless further information is released, it appears this coup was just one disgruntled dude, not the coordinated action of an internal or external political faction.

      how are soldiers "loyal" if they marched in the president and used an armored truck to break in?

    • @maxmanramfan

      @@rockmycd1319 Unclear at this time.
      On one hand, the general could have told them exactly what he was planning. In which case, the may have simply been pragmatic and decided to support the side they felt was the most likely to succeed long term. It is possible the soldiers saw a way to save their own lives/reputations and took it.
      On the other hand, it is possible the general was not forthcoming with information and simply abused the chain of command/ soldiers' natural tendency to follow orders from authority. There was definitely a lack of leadership/direction in the early minutes of the coup, and the soldiers were apparently open to dialogue with the president. Not exactly the behavior of people who know they are committing a coup.
      Vaush suggested the "let's go get some ice cream" theory. It is currently my favored explanation, and the one I believe is most strongly supported by the available evidence. I will not be elaborating further at this time.

    1. The General who committed the Coup has stated that Arce told him to do the coup to build morale in his Government in the lead up to the 2025 Elections. Nobody outside of sone rando Westerners believe him as far as I am aware
    2. Luis Arce and Evo Morales, despite being in the same Party FUCKING HATE EACHOTHER. All stemming from Arces win. When Arce won, Evo thought that he would have an active role in his administration, but Arce governed as his own individual. Despite not straying too far from Evo Ideologically, Evo has ran on "ARCE IS A TRAITOR" and has pushed for himself to be nominated by MAS-IPSP, to which a faction of the party Did nominate him and unformally expelled Arce from the Party. So...there's that

    But it was great to see even Arce's political rivals immediately denouncing the coup, along with the people in the streets, other South American presidents, and even the TV news hosts. Literally no one backed Zuniga, even his own soldiers bailed on him lol. Looks like no one got killed or even seriously injured. La Paz looks like a lovely city!
