Fiorito is not only linked to the production of ideologized content but also to cultural management in the most representative spaces of Kirchnerism.
The ultra-leftist was also director of the Centro Cultural Kirchner (CCK) and Chief of Staff of the Culture area during Cristina Kirchner's Government.
In turn, she was a key figure in the training of the "Ley Micaela," where she dedicated herself to instructing public officials on gender issues, endorsed by former president Alberto Fernández and former minister Tristán Bauer, her two main political bosses.
Tristán Bauer and Verónica Fiorito share a trajectory in the cultural management of Kirchnerism. Bauer served as Argentina's Minister of Culture during Alberto Fernández's term (2019-2023) and was previously director of public media and the Encuentro channel.
In 2009, during his management at Canal 7, Bauer faced criticism even from sectors of the Kirchnerist officialdom for the alleged "lack of politicization in programming," which caused tensions within Cristina Kirchner's government.
On social media, Fiorito made clear her affinity with bloodthirsty communist regimes, even celebrating and remembering the former Venezuelan dictator Hugo Chávez, known for the oppression and authoritarianism that ended up generating a deep political, economic, and social crisis in Venezuela.
During her management at the CCK, Fiorito was a promoter of the cultural indoctrination driven by Kirchnerism. Among them, her promotion of the "first trans songbook," funded with public funds, stands out.
She also used her position to promote speeches against capitalism and warn about the "advance of the right," making clear her intention to use art and culture as vehicles for the dissemination of an extreme left ideological agenda.
After leaving the government, she was involved in a production company named "Zoek," but it doesn't seem to be more than an Instagram profile. Its last post dates back to 2016.
Her reintegration at the helm of a children's project like Origamis is a clear threat to the neutrality that content aimed at children should have.
The concern lies in the possibility that the platform becomes a megaphone for discourses that are entirely inappropriate for the young age of children, which Milei's government managed to eliminate from the State.
Verónica Fiorito's return to cultural management in a private channel but funded with public resources from Buenos Aires once again highlights how the left uses education and culture as tools for imposing political and ideological agendas.
The communist Verónica Fiorito, former director of the children's channel Pakapaka and a key figure in the cultural indoctrination of Kirchnerism with public media, was chosen to lead "Origamis," a new section "for kids" within the ultra-Kirchnerist streaming platform Gelatina, directed by Pedro Rosemblat and funded by the Government of the Province of Buenos Aires.
The Origamis project aims to replicate the Pakapaka model, the channel created under Cristina Kirchner's administration to brainwash children, but this time adapted to the digital format, and from a pseudo-private channel.
However, beyond its apparent children's focus, the real goal is to recover the classic ideological indoctrination of Kirchnerism, promoting content loaded with a progressive and leftist agenda appealing to unprotected children.
The programming is expected to include themes related to gender, sexual identity, and diversity, presented in a way that's dangerous for the development of children, who are minors.
It's worth clarifying that despite what's said on social media and what Gelatina has tried to establish, during Javier Milei's administration, all disassociations from Pakapaka (and from all Contenidos Públicos Sociedad del Estado, which includes Pakapaka, Encuentro, and Deportv) have been due to voluntary retirements, without displacements for ideological reasons.

A history of indoctrination
Fiorito's previous management at Pakapaka and the Encuentro channel is marked by having used public media as tools of Kirchnerist ideological propaganda.
Under her direction, the content of these channels strayed from a truly educational and neutral proposal, to focus on narratives aligned with Kirchnerism. Fiorito chose to recruit children for the Kirchnerist cause, disguising the ideologization as supposed pedagogical content.
Her return with the Origamis project raises fears that this strategy will be repeated, this time on a streaming platform that could reach homes more quickly and massively, without parents being fully aware of the content their children consume.
Additionally, Fiorito was responsible for creating the character "Zamba" which, along with the producer "El Perro y la Luna," was a tool of the left to whitewash the image of the most nefarious characters in history, like Karl Marx, in the eyes of children.
