“Radical right” Javier Melei wins in Argentina

And, it’s the second largest country in South America… something that some have conveniently overlooked in their denial of this huge political move.

Democrats have proven more and more over the years that it is they themselves who are control freaks and astronomical sh-bags when the tide is rightfully turning in their faces. The world is largely rejecting their socialist utopia BS. Add to it, their cluelessness of how corporatism is/has been a tool for the growing politico-corporate partnerships to push economies into these statist-run hellholes.

The denial in this thread, and many threads over the years, is only predictable and to be expected. I’ve learned over the years that the ‘liberals’ I have worked with, are incredibly gullible, and often times, true sh-bags when the don’t get their way… much like a child.

This thread is a great example of this.

Awesome.

Wow, you seem really angry and bitter. Relax man. Take a chill pill.

How do you square your description with the fact that Milei has been labeled not only libertarian but anarchist as well? Also - he is described as authoritarian-leaning, I believe. To your point, are you of the view that authoritarianism is a panacea for failed liberal administrations in South America? The extension of your logic seems like we should merely embrace authoritarians. Is that a fair interpretation of your stance?

Please educate all of us. Thanks.

You mean Argentina. However, Brazil's conservative candidate narrowly lost to the leftist guy last year.

He is totally a libertarian except of you happen to be a woman. Then no go on bodily autonomy. The govt will make that decision. Thank you.

Who is saying that? Described by whom?

When one of my grandparents moved from NL in the 1950s it was still a toss-up whether to move to the US or Argentina

Hahaha. This video of Pierre Poilievre is a gem for the ages. He just munches on his apple and calmly destroys a clueless lib reporter.

Great talk, chief.

Maybe you should look at a happiness or Gini index and see which countries are thriving and which ones aren't. What do you think Denmark, Finland, Iceland, and Sweden have in common? Could it be universal healthcare and solid education?

Yeah, maybe! What you consider "socialist" is just countries that are committed to the improvement of the lives of their citizens. But don't let that stop you in the middle of a poorly-wooded, illogical rant on a running message board.

Unlike all the U.S. Patriots cheering for Hamas, their murder and kidnapping of U.S. citizens, and genocide of Israel. Nothing says US loyalty like "Queers for Palestine"

LOOOOOOOOOL. Priceless.

bro, do you read any other websites besides these weak chat boards?

Javier Milei, a Self-Described Anarcho-Capitalist, Is Elected President of Argentina
The libertarian outsider defeats ruling-party candidate Sergio Mass

Nov 8 2023 Heritage Foundation:
if he becomes president, he will vehemently oppose authoritarian powers

....guess I was wrong about him being authoritarian....

"Strongman?"

What's up Hobbs Kessler - you too - do you read anything at all, or just tik tok bro?

real ones got the reference 👍

The ancap moment is here. Let's see how it goes.

There was a genocide of Native Americans there too. There is continuing erasure of and discrimination against native Americans there.

That silver economy can’t won’t be coming back but there are useful Argentinian innovations that may improve mass welfare even if not generating GDP numbers - like FabricaSinPatron or direct democracy.

# why are there no Argentinians in track and field?!!

effn immigr….. oh, welcome, let’s be friends and good neighbours, how about folding some of those traditions you have in that there bag into these ones we have here, what you play football too, super, we are terrible at defense etc

That makes no sense. If printing money fixed poverty, it's not a logical conclusion that printing diplomas would cure stupidity. This guy sounds like he's pretty dumb.

He also believes that society would be better without government. Good luck with that one. I'm sure everyone in society will just voluntarily get together and do their part to get things done, and there'll be no disagreements or freeloading or stealing or cheater or murdering. Already backtracking I see as he realizes how unfeasible his ideas are, now says he won't touch healthcare or education.

They finally woke up. Nobody will lend them money anymore so they either have to produce or perish. No more showing up late for work, staying out all night, eating 2 hour meals, etc. Socialists paradise where everyone expect their neighbors to put in the work.
