Hiding her face but showing the baby was pointless. Praying for her safety.
Exactly 💯, even the blurry part ain't working if you know someone u can easily tell who she is, I don't understand journalism why they don't understand how dangerous it is to play with someone life!!
@@lindarakobe6527 Nah, they know exactly how dangerous it is, they just don't care. Truly, they don't.
They're not pretending to blur the woman for her sake, that's just a fraud they perpetuate to make themselves sound more exciting yet more legit. They wouldn't be the first sensational "journalists" of this type to take bets on how long she lasts, so then they can put out another salacious video about her demise, and how clever they are to get to show it to you..
The video is from 2016, it portrays the gang culture, THIS is why se sent 75,000 gangsters to prison. These people are no longer in danger.
Came to the comments just to say, if I knew this person, I would probably be able to tell who she was. They barely blurred her face…and her body wasn’t blurred at all. I hope she’s safe!
@@ColonizersBlow clips from 2016...
I really can't stress this enough. Yall really gotta do a better job hiding these wemen identities. It's crazy to hear what people will do to these wemen and yall put basic filters on them that literally anybody who knows them irl can tell in .2 seconds. Bro yall put that woman's whole ahs child's FACE in this video
This this this!!!
It’s not wemen, it is spelled W-o-m-e-n.
@@diva80you completely missed the entire point of the post because of one letter. Everyone knew they meant "women", even you. Get out of here grammar police, there are obviously much more significant things to focus your energy on. The women, their identity, and the identity of their children MUST be protected
Out of everything written u decided to reply because of one letter. @@diva80
and this is even remotely important and relevant to this crucial point how? 🙄
That reporter has balls of steel
Came to comment the same thing!

That man said it’s fun to harm women?!? “It’s like creativity”?!? Excuse?!?😳
I felt sick when I heard him say that..😲
Idk if it’s social pressure or straight psychopathy 💀
@@askerton08 It could be both, but more psychopath, like a lot more!
@@juliesmyth3044 It just hurt me because imagine the woman living with that monster?!!💔
keep them out of our country.
Her face when that man was describing how he would beat his 15 year old girlfriend.
That had me messed up. She needs extreme intervention because her definition of love keeps getting worsened by that steaming pile of garbage
Her face was the same face I made. Just, sheer incredulity mixed with horror. There are no words.
@@Rhov9 disgusting.
The vast majority of homicide victims in El Salvador and Latin America are men, not woman, but sure, let’s keep pretending women are the main victims and h*aped even tho there is no evidence that the majority of the perpetrators stated, “I k*illed this woman just bc she’s a woman” or any intent that is due to misogyny. Vice is a left wing propaganda to always find a way to make women look like the main victims
They are brutish beasts. I can't imagine living in a society where there is so much accepted brutality against women.
The woman wants to be anonymous but you showed off a lot a blurred effect and not showing the face doesn’t do much also you showed her kid? Why show their face? I know this is a re upload but I haven’t seen it before and this just struck me as weird.
They literally got someone killed the following week like this once. Definitely never doing an interview for anyone on something fucked up
They blurred the man who beats his underaged wife’s face better than hers. Do better vice smh
I thought the same thing. People risk their lives to talk to you and you can't do the simplest thing like hide her identity
they showed her baby, her bracelet, key identifiers. This is not anonymous.!
My exact thoughts. Pissed me the hell off.
my grandmother sent my mother off to the states in the 70s due to the extreme violence in El Salvador. And I'm so incredibly grateful she did. My mother received citizenship, graduated from Hs and college. her life would have been so much different had she stayed.
God bless your Mom and your family. Women have to stick together.
Then she raised a son who is just like the men from home. Lovely.
@VoltairesRevenge
You are so stupid and uneducated. She raised her son with love not hatred like what's inside of your lost soul.
@@VoltairesRevengethen yo momma raised a daughter like you😂
A huge sacrifice that had to be made for the better of her life and you
omg that lady identifying her loved one tore my heart
This video is from 2016, yes, it was horrible, this is why we hate gangsters from MS-13 and 18-Street so much, fortunately after sending 75,000 gangsters to prison last year our country is finally safe for everyone. Nobody should ask us Salvadorans to give those fk gangsters a good treatment in prison after everything they've done to us.
@@joycem6250 glad to hear you are now in a more safe environment much blessings
It's like some men really hate women. Despicable really. Unacceptable in every way. Damn shame. RIP to all the innocent that have passed. Peace be with you.
Unfortunately, Men who think and act in this way, do nothing but set themselves up for a one gender society. Hatred causes destruction.
It's already happening in many Islam countries. The male population is much higher than the female population. If men are happy with creating one gender societies, then happiness is key, but will be met with regret later on.
BLAME THEIR MOTHERS!
Game Over Girls 😂
@potato6436 Men have been telling women that it’s “game over”.
And yet women are still
Here .. on the planet… living. Clown
@@MY-zx6lzFathers, for not teaching how to respect women.
I'm suddenly remembering my mom's friend, an El Salvadorean woman who had American kids but she herself was waiting for citizenship. It looked like she might get rejected so she told my mom in confidence that she'd kill herself if she gets denied, so she won't be forced to go back and so her sons wouldn't have to worry about her. Thank god she was granted citizenship
🙏🏽
Yikes sounds like she needs some mental health help not citizenship
@@joycem6250Assumptions will have you offended by everything. This person just remembered a story due to this story, where is the wrong in that? These stories may not be yours but it’s a reality for many women around the world. What this video has done is give courage to others. It is helping someone somewhere. Not everything said is in malice but if you see malicious intent in everything? It might be time to look within.
@@joycem6250 I get what you are saying and happy that your country is safer now. However, yes it does give hope to many people around the world from abused backgrounds. This particular video is showing a woman coming forward to tell her story and the woman above responded because she had a story that was related to the video we both just both watched. It may be an untruth for you but a truth for others. Someone seeing someone they think is speaking up for what is right, does tend to have that affect on people in difficult situations. Assuming? No dear. I saw a story and I can see how someone might see hope in it. And if you talked to people from other countries that have escaped terrible situations, you will find that seeing something like this gives them courage. Take a minute to volunteer at a battered woman shelter and see what you find. You have a one sided point of view, such that someone finding something relatable in a story offends you. Again, look inward.
@@joycem6250 In addition, this video shows that they interviewed a woman that feared for her life to point her face was blurred out. Did you know the woman interviewed personally? You can educate people about the happenings of your country yes, but to go off on someone who is simply sharing their story is not it. That is misfired frustration.
Coming from a fairly male dominated country, I always get shocked by how men would behave when no one is watching...
If you are shocked then you are not paying attention
They have always been degenerate.
are women smarter than men?
No@@fatalisth
@@fatalisthno. Not comparable.
@@fatalisthI also love the simple fact that you're questioning you know like you're just wondering just like anybody else and then you have all these f****** women denying what exactly? The simple fact that you have an opinion lol ours at the simple fact that they know they're in the wrong they're f****** liars
Listening to that man talk about beating and almost killing the mother of his child was absolutely horrifying and heartbreaking. I’m shocked at how easily he talked about it. How little he seemed to care. I can’t wrap my head around it 😞💔
and the fact that she was 15??? like what
I felt as though he didn't have as much sympathy for her as he claimed to have. 15 is wild
Growing up without the ability to feel. Made sociopaths
It is heartbreaking. It's awful and disgusting. It happens everywhere too. That domestic violence isn't uncommon anywhere unfortunately. It happens all over the world including the US. The entire world needs to make a change.
It’s a cultural thing and their culture finds that tolerable and acceptable no different than a sensible civilized person would find that abhorrent. They find it perfectly normal says how they’re raised that’s what their values instill.
This world looks more like hell than hell.
Yeah, it makes me wonder more and more why there is a hell. This world can be bad enough.
things kinda changed this vid is from 2016
@@Lui34779 I hope things have changed somewhat. 8 years isn't that long w/ these kind of problems though.

@@saintejeannedarc9460 it has changed, those gangsters are now in prison, 75,000 gangsters are paying for their crimes and we can finally live a normal life now that they're no longer harming anyone.
Maybe try hiding this woman's identity better. More blurring
Apparently when they show faces on the news, it prevents the criminals from acting because it will be easier for them to tracked down
@@loveinthematrix video from 2016, the gangsters in this video and another 75,000 are already in prison, nobody is going to do anything to these women anymore.
@joycem6250 there are still men who hate women that are out on the streets
Hold on, a 15 year old wife??
18 being the age of consent is an anthropologically recent phenomenon based on linear numerical time. It is an idea spread via colonialism and cultural oppression of indigenous ways of life inherently based on the idea that Anglo-Saxons are morally and ethically superior to “savages.” Imposing a strict and arbitrary number on people who lived otherwise for thousands of years is racist oppression. But the left won’t tell you this.
and she has a child... prob 12 when they started 'dating'
Still legal in many US states. Thought it wasn't, but found out a few mos ago it is. Check it on Google.
I was looking for this comment
not wife, mother of his child.
It's irresponsible to put the baby in this video and you barely blurred his mother. WTF?
Wow, the men in that bar. Good lord, it is entrenched in the culture. This is one of those rare cases in my opinion where raising awareness will make a real change
My face nearly fell apart every time they spoke! Like wdym women make you want to beat them because they like it?!?!
The fact that they believe machismo comes from women because women “let it happen to them” (abuse) is crazy, what’s crazier is the older man saying some women like the abuse. Right, women like being killed….i get BDSM but I have a strong feeling the femicide in El Salvador right by now isn’t from BDSM situations gone wrong…
I dont think so.
It won't. We need to keep certain people out of the States to preserve our own culture.
That’s what I keep saying this is their culture. These are their values. This is what they’re all about. That’s why it is perpetuated. That’s why it is tolerated. That’s why it’s accepted because it’s part of their culture. It’s perfectly fine to them. It’s no problem. That’s the problem that they need to solve. It’s not a criminal problem. It’s a cultural problem, this isn’t a one off
I will never understand femicide or infanticide,pedophilia
Old video from 2016, new presdient changed it all
Me neither, fortunately this gangsters are in prison now.
well you should get to understand it.
I just found out they put women in jail for having miscarriages a LOT in El Salvador, even in some situations where the woman called 911 for help. I read a news story about it and the irony was every woman who went to jail was already a mother and when she went to jail for "unaliving her child" her children were left without a mother to raise them and the families/father would have to scramble for help. For some they were in jail for so long it permanently ruined their relationship with their actual children. If you care about kids, why are you taking their mothers away? This is still going on even under Bukele.
yes. the woke will show up for Brittany Watts, but want to import more misogyny at the same time.
It's going on in Ohio.
Happens in Texas too
Bukele is a neo con so i suppose he might be negative to legalise abortion.
So a woman who endures the tragedy of having a miscarriage is treated like a criminal who deliberately killed her baby?! What an outrage; need to find out more about this.
the way these men speak so highly about their horrendous actions is mind boggling. are they not processing THE WORDS coming out of their mouths? so despicable and disgusting. more justice and protection for these women!!!
This video is from 2016, this was why we sent those 75,000 gangsters to prison last year, they were horrible people.
Femicides and homicides are different - El Salvador still has one of the highest femicide rates in the world. Vice has been airing episodes from this series for weeks now, it's not an attack on El Salvador.
Edit: Globally, femicides are overwhelmingly perpetuated by male family members - that includes members of the police force, public servants, and other 'ordinary' men who aren't in gangs. Within the first 5 minutes of the video they state "it's easy to assume these are tragic casualties of gang warfare" and then go on to explain how that's not the case. They later say "femicide in el salvador is not just a phenomenon of gang warfare." I'm tired of people's comments lol.
@@Trescountnice try
very old propaganda video, things are way different now,
funny how the people saying how different it is are all guys. where are the women to tell us things are different? oh that's right.💀💀💀💀@@LexlutherVII
@@Dogtubee🤦♂️ you do realize this video is eight years old!
@@Dogtubee This is from 2016. Things are a lot better now because of the new president cracking down on crime.
I remember first seeing Vice cover War Kidnap "Brides" in Africa. Since then, I've watched them report on violence against women EVERYWHERE in the world. I can see how someone might connect this story to some agenda, but that would be missing the point. This violence against women isn't isolated to any specific place on the map, or just a symptom of any specific culture... It's happening everywhere, everyday.
When a culture is patriarchal, this tends to happen frequently.

the bar is in hell if this needs a "shoutout".
Its normal for a real man to have an Ego, but the man stops being a real man when he harms a female just because he can. He then becomes a coward. I pray for these women; this is very heartbreaking.
Exactly! I love masculine men. My husband & my father are both what they call a Man’s Man! Our son is the same. But.. A real man, in all his masculinity protects women! Admires women! Adores women! Provides for their women.

I agree with what you said. Africa isn't a country btw
Africa is an actual continent with 54 countries? Women are victimized here but such broad generalisations aren't really helpful to anyone.

This is horrible 😢😢😢 No woman should live in a fear for her life just because of her gender. Come on fellow men, I think we collectively decided against this in the 20th century
Violence against anyone regardless of thier gender is horrible, and no I am not dismissing violence against women. No life is more valuable than the other, men also need protection especially young boys and elderly men . My point is every life is valuable.
idk why you feel the need to take away from the original point of us needing to protect women, violence being bad regardless of gender is very obvious, you are adding nothing to the convo tbh @@ChrisCap732

Never underestimate evil. Evil is as bad as you can imagine, and then some.
That's why sending 75,000 gangsters to prison was our priority, you can see in this video from 2016 how horrible it was to live under their control. Things are totally different now after those monsters are paying for their crimes.
“Because I don’t know, I think I still love her.”
Bull.
These same men get angry when their women marry foreigners... WHAT DID YOU EXPECT? The way these men take these women for granted as well. Not a lot of traditional women out there and they don't deserve to be abused/mistreated. I now understand why these women online date to get out of there.
Keep in mind this aired in 2016 and the country is A LOT safer now. I’m actually really proud of how far El Salvador has come. This is my dad’s country and he expresses to me all the time how he is excited to go visit now.
Your father is going to love it. My Dad has gone several times since Bukele has come into the office. My dad almost tears up at how much the country has changed. A park that he was robbed in when he was younger has completely changed. People can walk outside at night without fear. People are laughing and living their life. Kids in highschool are learning about computers and bitcoin mining. God bless Bukele.
Bs
@noirefit5954 is not bs, I been to el salvador last year. My brother just went few weeks ago. Coulp of my relatives went there for Christmas.
Those animals from the bar, I'm bristling with rage!!! The young one who witnessed hos father telling his mother to "screw him" to "earn the money" and how he blamed his mother was just sickening!

*Had, this video is from 2016, before the crackdown on gangs, 75,000 of those motherf are in prison now.
Anyone who defends that this aired 8 years ago so it’s old. No feminism can ever achieve that it would solve women’s problem in such a short period of time. Vice clearly said in the description that it aired in 2016 so I get the context here. What makes me irked is that despite the very vivid, graphic griefs in the video some people are hastily putting up the defensive attitude, mocking the reporters who must have gone through hell with the women.
Sad.

Election year!
Vice fired all its journalists last week. Now it’s just the executives/businessmen making the decisions
Still no videos about the 7 Oct invasion or the war it started.

El Salvador literally is the safest country in the Americas now. Bukele locked up anyone who could have potentially been in gangs, the statistic about El Salvador being the highest homicide rate in the world is not true anymore
My daughter visited
El Salvador a couple of years back! Her boyfriend & his family are from there and they still have family there! I can’t say I wasn’t scared to let her go! Her father & I even told her boyfriend if anything happens to her we’re holding him personally responsible and to not bother coming back!!
His family lives in the mountains and she wasn’t allowed to leave the family compound without at least three male escorts!
Even with all that, we were happy to allow her the experience to travel to another country and she was thankfully well protected & taken care of!
She also said that the El Salvador is absolutely beautiful! And from her photos she wasn’t lying..
I’ll pray for them.. 🙏🏽

Recently there was a man from Chile who was interested in dating me, an American woman. On our second date he told me his aunt was shot by her husband at the time because he 'thought' she cheated. She actually didn't cheat nor had an affair. Luckily, she survived the assault but was paralyzed from the waist down. According to this Latino man his aunt was extremely beautiful and still was even after the assault. It's about control and the Catholic church brainwashed those people.
This Latino guy would not respect my set boundaries like calling me past a certain time or calling and not leaving a message when I requested he not. I told him I go to bed at a time during the week
I found it odd that he would lie about little things. When we talked he would say immature things like I called because you asked me to call you or say he couldn't be calling me all the time.. I never asked him to call me actually. I only went on two dates but there were lots of red flags.
Western women have a lot of individual Rights, individual Freedoms, and have the Right to pursue our own definition of Happiness especially in the Scandinavian Nordic countries. These Freedoms should NEVER be taken for granted, EVER!

BOLIVIA!!! really why include my country its not even that bad as the title claims, also the video is 8 years old ago
At least read the description, this was a video from 2016, before we sent 75,000 gangsters to prison. Things are safe now, this motherf are not able to harm us anymore.
You guys should have added that this is from years ago. President Bukele has managed to bring back a sense of safety to his country so far.
Just to make things clear, this is Not El Salvador anymore. I moved 3 years ago doing Missionary work and a lot has changed. Gangs are no Longer harassing females or people period. They are locked up, please don’t use this and make it seem like we’re still suffering through this. I pray and hope other countries like Honduras or Guatemala can change like our country has since March 2022!!. We can walk freely now and enjoy what this country has families can be free and we’re no longer afraid. We keep praying for other countries that find themselves in this situation and only getting worst. Blessings.
That "ay sii" got me... Que trauma
This episode of Woman first aired on VICE TV in 2016.
Yes, it states this in the description. ❤️
Thank you I've seen the comments now
No, no, but can someone PLEASE explain _why_ these documentaries are released like 10, 15 years after they are filmed??
This comment is the only comment i've read that points out these release delays.
i've asked this question countless times on multiple documentaries that also have only been filmed like 10 years ago and only recently released, and _no_ one replies.
if its not like they only release it to be watched for the public to watch it for free after they release it on PAID platforms like netflix, i really really don't understand why they want to want freaking 10 years to release it.
either people for some bizzare reason think releasing documentaries 10-20 yrs to the public after filming it is _normal_ , or my comments havent actually been posted. idk. this world is weird i swear.
@@dbuc4671 1) 2016 was not 10, 15, or 20 years ago. 2) You can post comments, but you're not owed an answer. 3) There is no harm in re-releasing documentaries a few years later, especially when the description states when the documentary was filmed.
@@amyparker9816 1) I'm only talking about this specific one. there are tons of documentaries out there, released only recently, that were filmed in the 2000s and 2010s. i wouldnt ask a question like this if this documentary was the ONLY one I found that was this old. obviously i would have to have seen like at least 5 or 10 or more that are filmed such a long time ago, to begin to really wonder and question and wanna know why they do it.
2) I'm not expecting _anyone_ to answer me, nor does anyone _owe_ me anyone, but it would be nice to have some answers. Similar to how it would be _nice_ to have a seat on a full bus, but you aren't _expecting_ anyone to give one up for u.
3) answered it, i never knew they actually repost past videos.
Can you post an update after all the changes made?
I wish to be able to do this! Thank you so much vice and to everyone involved in these videos! I can only imagine how nervous and scared they must have been to be there
Coming from a Salvadorian background, I can confirm that El Savlador has changed, this was 2016. Our president has manage to keep the streets clean of violence and has put alot of gangs in jail. It is actually safer now than before.
SO SAD AND DOESN'T MAKE SINCE US MEN WOULDN'T BE HERE IF IT WASNT FOR A WOMEN. THIS MAKES ME SO ANGRY!!! 😠 😡 😔 😟 🙁 😥 ❤️🙏
Women in Europe and whites countries have literally ruined the whole of Europe voting for massmigration since they got the right to vote
This is from 2016. Things are a lot better now because of the new president cracking down on crime.
Maybe they’re mad at women for bringing them here.
And they wouldn’t be here without us. Don’t forget you need sperm to inseminate the egg let’s not act like everything begins with them.
@@shottakush8404 everything does begin with the female, the Y chromosome you have came from the X chromosome.
This is sick and heartbreaking
Shocking.....absolutely shocking 💔 Thank you for being brave enough to show the World what is happening to these poor women.
Video from 2016, those 75,000 gangsters are in prison now, this ISN'T our reality anymore.
I'm Salvadoran and this I never knew... it's heart breaking... God please protect my people. In your name I pray. AMEN AMEN AMEN 🙏🏽 🙌🏽 👏🏽 ❤️
How did you not know that the gangs did this? This is why we sent those 75,000 gangsters to prison in 2023.
To anyone who is worried rightow... this video was filmed back in 2016, this film is about 7 or 8 years old. Nowadays el salvador is a much safer country thanks to bukele... i have friends over there they say it's the first time in their life they can breathe calmly ( of course never letting their guard down). My heart goes to all of these victims and their families.
The most dangerous place to be for a women :
Me : 🌏
El Salvador just finished building Cecot (Centre for the Confinement of Terrorism), the largest prison in Latin America to try and handle gangs in El Salvador. It's been called the "mega prison". If there's ever a total breakout as just happened in Haiti, either the military will have to fully mobilize or the count will be overrun. With all the gangs having massive members in the US, it will be an international threat.
It won't stop the gangs they will cintinue to run things in the country from one city to another
im hearing that a lot of sa countries are dumping their prison populations --- which are headed straight for the north continent
Yep! Kiss goodbye the US you knew before....
We all came from a woman!! This is the respect and thanks they get from bringing them into the world!...SMH😢
I understand your argument and everyone should be respected I agree but that isn’t a good argument it’s not like ppl were asked to be born
This was so difficult to watch. Thank you for doing this story. Keep spreading the awareness.
It's so sad to see this. The men in the bar, omg, their opinions are hard to listen. Blaming the victims all time.
My Dad is from Salvador he would always tell me and my brothers stories of how it was back then when he was small. What him and my grandpa would find in the jungles, what they saw in the streets.
Wow.This was chilling. Bless those mothers & the woman who are trying to make progress in law enforcement & in the political realm. Thanks for shedding light on this.
For something that happened before the new regime? Do you understand that all those monsters are behind bars now, right?
This video is from 2016, these 75,000 gangsters are in prison now, we can finally live in peace.
@@joycem6250 Hi 👋🏾Oh like the President Bukele & law enforcement? How are things going there? I have met people from Mexico, PR, & Guatemala but I personally haven't spoken w/any one from El Salvador so my knowledge of current events there are very limited. Are the femicide rates substantially lower now? Were the 75,000 gangsters all apprehended by law enforcement during Bukle since he's been in office. Do women have better health/life expectancy now or feel more comfortable reaching out to police officers there, since that was one of the things this documentary mentioned about more women officers to help certain cases. Is it safer for travel for even U.S citizens or what? Any responses to these q's would be appreciated.🙌🏾
Being Salvadoran, I can tell you El Salvador is no longer what is depicted in this old documentary. VICE should produce a new documentary of El Salvador.
How is it now?
@@Carpediem1230we have become the safest country in the whole of the American CONTINENT, even before Canada, those 75,000 gangsters are behind bars already, we can finally live in peace.
8:19 so I totally get her saying when she was on a gang she felt strong and like she had a family, but if she’s in a gang abd she knows these things are happening to other women in the other gangs when they’re captured, wouldn’t she be scared of those things happening to her?
Didn’t their homicide rate get to be one of the lowest in the world?
Maybe the killers moved to America
@@PennyMsElite or or hear met out, they traded it to have one of the highest incarceration rate in the world

God bless this incredible strong interviewer. How scary.
Before Bukele not one reporter would show up.
They did and ended up dead
@@RolandinBroward Who was it
Now, Bukele made the country boring and very safe, They don't want to make videos about El Salvador 😂
@@LexlutherVII Yeah facts, El Salvador used to be then Central American wild west with cool gangs and that would put you on the edge of your seat, now it’s just another normal and boring country. Shame.
This video is from 2016. Bukele has changed El Salvador for the better.
I feel like half male population of this country should be arrested. And that's crazy, because for this kind of actions you would have been already in jail in another country.
Well, prob 10-15% were since the recent crakcdown on gangs, lol. This was filmed in 2016
Those GANGSTERS are already in prison, 75,000 of them in fact, they represent 1% of the population though, not even close to your assumed 50%.
@@dyawr 1% in fact.
@@joycem6250 Aha, ok. So it would be 2% of the male population, assuming it's 50-50% males and females.
@@joycem6250 I was calculating based on the fact that I heard 5% of El Salvador's population is in prison, and I assume 95% are men.
It was filmed in 2016, why did not you put that on the title man 😡
How much does any one want to bet that some of these guys are in the states right now in a migrant shelter, waiting to bring their reign of terror on any woman unlucky enough to cross their path?
EXACTLY!!!
Fact.
Most definitely!

What a disgusting culture.
That's gang culture for you, it was disgusting.
this video is from 2016 its different now
Why is this being aired again now if this was aired back in 2016? 🤔
that's what I'm thinking 🤡
bc its still happening
@@twitterienne3679 Yes, because machismo is rooted in the culture. But the gang violence is close to non existent now. If most people don't read the description they're just gonna assume that the gangs are continuing to terrorize people.
Someone wants to mislead the scroller, and get a fear reaction from the uninformed❤
@@timebot000 that's what I'm saying 😭
"If it wasn't for sex, men and women would've killed each other off long ago." -- G.B. Shaw, Irish playwright.
I mean it wouldve been mainly men doing the killing lets be real here. We are so much above women in their ability its extremely unfair, which is why it is considered a mans responsibility to protect women. Because we can.
As a Latino born and raised i pray and hope that Americans learn that this is part of what is going through the border, not all of them of course but this way of living and sick state of mind is coming to America. Our Latin countries are all like this because of us and politics corruption. America closed your borders yesterday.
thanks xenophobe! id like to know how almighty and great you have been to women in your life sweetie... youre not special, youre one of them , Saludos desde lima.
There’s mass deportations coming. That’s what these Latinos don’t see coming.

This episode aired in 2016. I’d like an update video on the situation with the new president
This ^ 2015-2020 was incredibly dangerous for Salvadoran women especially
@@tockalaluz yes, it was very stressful, they could hurt you at any time and nobody would be able to do anything.
@@tockalaluz"women" technically no. you know it not just women. Children, men , elderly there all getting murder bc of the gang members.
Thank you for this video.
Our little town here in Texas is now full of men from el Salvador...lovely!! Thanks for the warning!
If they're gangsters report them to the Salvadoran Embassy, they can be sent back home to prison for gang affiliations. This behavior is gang related, not Salvadoran culture.
I hope things have changed with the new regime. El Salvador was a country of lawlessness.
A society is judged by how it treats its most vulnerable. This treatment of women has no excuse- machismo be damned.
This was gang culture, the video is from 2016, we sent 75,000 of them to prison in 2023, things have changed drastically.
Why is it not specified in the title that this is a 2016 documentary.
It's misleading. Do better.
Stfu and stop complaining
The female journalist interviewing these men with understanding and calmness just goes to show how resilent women are.
I don’t like how you were showing the places they lived and not blurring them more. The documentary is really educational, and has a strong message. Though at some point, it felt like you were just using them for your documentary. Not making sure they’re safe after or at least not showing there locations. Maybe I’m getting the wrong idea but at least you could’ve gave them water or groceries that they need. I mean they did just risk their life!
Video from 2016, before the GANGSTER crackdown.
Thanks to Bukele, now in March 2024 El Salvador is the safest country in Latin America. El Salvidor is now competing with Canada to be the safest in all Americas, with projected year-end homicide rates between 1.8 and 2.5 per 100000.
This video says otherwise
@@PennyMsElite This video is from 2016. Read the description!
@@pazuzuxx oh
Interesting, & good to hear; may I inquire as to how was it done??
@@rubyred6954They put a man the media labels a “right-wing extremist” in charge of the country. He jailed criminals and invited intelligent young white men from the west to help run his government.
No different from what Pinochet did to save Chile.
Honestly you guys always do a crappy job at keeping the people in danger anonymous, hope you can actually take the video down and reupload it only after fixing the filter. Educating people about this important but it could easily be used to hurt them in the wrong hands
Im from El Salvador.. All of that gang stuff isn’t happening anymore. And women aren’t being mass murdered.
Isn't it Honduras?
@@sway_9803 it was El Salvador in 2016 before the crackdown
Their society sounds like ours. The evil and toxicity are everywhere. Thank you for sharing their struggles.
This video is from 2016 before the crackdown on gangs, things are totally different now.
Despite the efforts with curbing GANG violence, Nayib Bukele has done NOTHING to protect the women of his country. Considering he had a wife and two VERY YOUNG daughters at home you would think he would be making reforms in Women’s Rights.
It is still illegal to get an abortion in El Salvador and punishable up to one year in prison.
Nothing? Do you think getting rid of this kind of men and this gang culture is nothing to you?
This is a genuinely dumb comment
Can we get a Vice documentary on how Vice executives got paid millions for crashing the company into the ground and laying off everyone?
(This video was released in 2016) For all those wondering, the homicide rate in El Salvador has dropped significantly, becoming one of the least homicides in the entire world due to the new president. There isn’t any new statistic reports on femicide but has most likely significantly decreased due to tens of thousands of gang members being incarcerated
