Moira Millán wrote in early June a letter from her home in Chubut Province, in Argentina's Patagonia region, to its governor, Ignacio Torres. She titled it "AGAINST ALL DICTATORSHIP," with one of its passages reading: "Since your inauguration as governor, and that of Javier Milei as president, racist, gendered, ageist, and other forms of hatred have become state policy."

She added: "[The] money, which should be allocated to health, education, food, etc., is instead being spent on bullets against the Mapuche people, and against women in particular."
