The poll I referenced on perceptions of criminality was from Gallup. Approval ratings are typically carried out by groups like Cid-Gallup, which is based in Costa Rica. In other words - foreign organizations. And you can also see countless videos on YouTube of people, including Americans, treking the streets of El Salvador and talking to random people about the changes that have happened. Nobody's holding back anything. People love it. This is real. You're obviously going to be able to find stories against it online because it directly contradicts the globalist and Progressive ideology on how to handle criminality. And there are countless groups backing those sort of ideologies with vast sums of money fueling them.
The effects in El Salvador have been so dramatic that you can immediately reject most tales that try to undermine it on a macro level. For instance if it were true that they were only capturing small fries while letting the big fish run unchecked, you wouldn't see this dramatic decline in criminality. The gangs are being completely dismantled. If the gang leaders are or were working as collaborators then that's great! Make people even less motivated to even think about joining gangs when the leaders themselves might be snitches.
I could go into detail about why Putin is popular, but it requires treking back to the 'wild nineties'. I'd love to discuss that if you're interested, but I think it's somewhat tangential to what we're talking about.
