      Overall, there's been a collaborative relationship among more conventional right-wing adult movements and their militant youth counterparts like the UJC, with the latter wearing the metaphorical/theatrical jackboots.

    Unlike in the US, there is little to no pressure on the mainstream right to disavow its revanchist youth for their displays of neo-fascist imagery.

      Luis Camacho's passage from the Unión Juvenil Cruceñista to the Santa Cruz Civic Committee is a star illustration of this phenomenon.

        Not only does Camacho include the UJC in his biography/resumé, the movement remembers the 2008 violence as "heroic defense" of the region, as symbolized by Camacho's eulogy of fellow UJC member Marcelo Terrazas.

          But we can't overlook the adult Camacho/Civic Committee's serious effort to rebrand itself as more inclusive in 2019, arc-ing from the early Oct cabildo to his collaboration w/ Potosi's Pumari and literal embrace of Aymara critics of Evo. eju.tv/2019/11/camacho-y-pumari-articulan-la-protesta-contra-evo-en-la-paz/

            Finally, in trying to reach out to a national audience in early November, Camacho had to publicly disavow racism and he did so loudly. But not by mentioning his past or the UJC. eldeber.com.bo/155843_camacho-al-gobierno-esta-lucha-no-es-ni-sera-un-tema-racial

              Nonetheless, with the Bible stunt in the Palace, the removal of the wiphala by Santa Cruz police, the prohibition of dressing pollera, the new government has made a series of anti-indigenous steps, the latter two belatedly taken back. eldeber.com.bo/156454_policia-realiza-acto-de-desagravio-a-la-whipala
