Common Argentina L
What are those sideburns man looks like he just got out of the dryer
He literally talks about how he won’t bend the knee to the woke communists by combing his hair.
Which is about rhe most relatable thing he’s said.

His family is of Italian origin
Yeah that checks out he literally reminded me of a meatball. Would not be slightly surprised if his grandparents or whatever were fascist party members
On top of spaghetti
All covered in cheese
I saw my poor meatball
Violate NAP
Incredible that Argentina, a nation that notably fucks, has elected a clitoris denialist as their president
Imma need some context for this
Well Argentina is about to get even poorer lol.
not according to this guy, who’s famously always correct
Elon Musk is the China of billionaires
More like the Chyna of billionaires in that his drug addled brain is too decomposed to be of any use to science
Chyna
Holy shit this image is amazing.
If he has his way the country is going to be so fucked revolution is inevitable. The dollar initiative alone….
If they voted in this guy there may be some time before that education gap gets closed
Poor material conditions don’t necessarily lead to a socialist revolution
Electoralism takes yet another L
Yeah this fucking sucks but I can’t say I’m surprised.
A couple of months ago he went on an interview and just completely lost his shit, hearing voices and talking absolute nonsense… there was a lot of talk on twitter about how he had just lost the election right there and then, surely it would not be possible to recover from such a disastrous public appearance…
I remember laughing in Brazilian back then, doing my best impression of the “first time?” meme, wondering if people have not been paying attention at all for the past five years. The same “silver bullet” kind of moment happened over and over and over again with Bolsonaro (and Trump for that matter), and guess what? Nothing fucking happens. These right wing lunatics can shit themselves live on TV however much they want, nothing’s going to dissuade their voters.
And I think there’s a reason for that: nothing makes fucking sense anymore. People just want change, they just want to fix this “nameless” despair, this emptiness and lack of purpose and hope. People intuitively understand that neoliberalism has nothing to offer except for abject failure and slow but certain decay, unless you’re rich. The thing is, they don’t know what to call it. Half a century of propaganda as well as an education completely unconcerned with a critical, materialist assessment of history has made it all but impossible to even begin to understand what’s going wrong with the world.
The left is under constant surveillance and is browbeaten back into hiding every time it grows strong or even tries to. The right has no such limitations, and has the freedom to come out and “explain” to the people their own twisted version of reality. An exploited, uninformed, desperate, frustrated and angry working class believes that explanation, after all they have nobody else to explain things.
I’m certainly oversimplifying things, but I think that’s the reason why I very often see stuff like delivery guys riding motorcycles adorned with “God, Nation and Family”-style fash stickers. It’s the only way I can see the most exploited sympathizing with the exploiter and voting for the people who openly say that the exploiter should exploit more.
I think a lot of people straight up refuse to acknowledge that they are exploited by anyone. As a slight to their character or something if they acknowledged it.
Its the same as people believing on true heart that they are “middle class” while broke as fuck, because being poor is not the material conditions but a personal moral failure that they deny of accept.
very oppressed but not exploited
The exploitation of every working person is so normalized that they can’t even except it for what it is. Or in the case of Americans for instance they believe that only happens to workers in other countries because

Uhh you got a link to this? I gotta see it lol
I couldn’t find any English sources discussing that interview specifically, but here’s a very interesting article about his, uh, eccentricity and penchant for canine telepathy mediated by an ancap witchdoctor:
Guys I hate to admit it but I think I’m coming around on this guy. I can’t remember the last time I read three straight paragraphs where every sentence manages to somehow up the ante, truly incredible stuff. People are comparing him to Trump, but Trump could never be this cool.
Milei is the owner of five English Mastiffs, with the progenitor being Conan, who died in 2017 after suffering from spinal cancer.[45][269][270] He considers Conan his son and has named four of Conan’s six clones, including one named after the original and another named Angelito,[277] Milton (in honor of Milton Friedman), Murray (in honor of Murray Rothbard), Robert, and Lucas (both named after Robert Lucas).[278][279] Milei said that he cloned Conan because he understands cloning as “a way of approaching eternity”.[270] To do this, he went to a clinic in the United States; the process cost him about $50,000.[270] He has described his dogs as four-legged children and thanked them after his 2023 primary win.[14]
Milei stated that he communicates with the dogs through a mystic.[10] For example, he commented that the new Conan provides ideas on general strategy, Robert is the one who makes him “see the future and learn from mistakes”, Milton is in charge of political analysis, and Murray of the economy.[280] When asked about this by El País journalist Martín Sivak and Nicolás Lucca of Radio Rivadavia, Milei did not deny it, and said: “What I do with my spiritual life and in my house is my business. If Conan advises me on politics, it means that he is the best consultant of humanity.”[269]
Milei said he had dialogues with the likes of Rothbard and Ayn Rand. In 2015, he cited Conan as a source of inspiration for his writing.[269] About Conan’s death in 2017, Milei said that Conan had not really died (he described it as “his physical disappearance” and continued to refer to Conan in the present tense) but had gone to sit next to God to protect him, and that it was thanks to this that he had begun to have talks with God himself.[281] According to González, Milei wrote to a friend in a chat: “I saw the resurrection of Christ three times, but I can’t talk about it. They would say I’m crazy.”[45] According to various sources consulted by La Nación, Milei maintains that he and Conan have a mission that was assigned to them by God and has a mystical story with Conan. He said that he met Conan, who was a lion, as a gladiator in the Roman Colosseum about 2,000 years earlier.[282]
Caligula speedrun let’s fucking gooooooooo
Psychotic disorders can be really fascinating, all the unique delusions from person to person shows the organic creativity of the individual with it. Sad that when you mix it with charisma and right wing politics you end up with something like this. But this also shows that with the right level of societal acceptance and support, people with these disorders can go on to live a full life. Folks with schizophrenia have the highest unemployment rate of any demographic, I wonder how many of them could engage in society more…
I hope this asshole gets removed tho, mf thinks he’s talking to God and ayn rand, not a good combo.

…
He considers Conan his son
…
He has described his dogs as four-legged children and thanked them after his 2023 primary winme but from the evil dimension
the rest
oh no
The reactionary mind never fails to amaze
If anyone ever asks why I make my dog a little fantasy world, I’m going to link them that and say shut up.
my family like to pretend our dog is president of Brazil as a joke
Maybe they are.
This is like that libertarian detective copy pasta because you can’t think it can get crazier but it keeps going
Yes!
Dude, I know mentioning HOI4 is
but this feels a lot like the backstory for Antonin Artaud in Red Flood. Just a clearly unwell guy put in charge because the left has been annihilated but the establishment is still hated by everybody.Milei L’etat Irreal era
This slams lmao

Who cares about usa amendments? This thread is about argentine? Are you okay?
Also, I’ll wipe my ass with any constitution the moment I have the possibility.
what’s the relevance of applying the american constitution to argentina?
Same reason it applied to Ruwanda when a genocide was spurned on by talk radio. I wonder how much Argentines were exposed to that and elected a fascist just like the US did in 2020.
Free speech is an illussion that does not exist and has never existed in reality
What gets me about this is that conservatives genuinely think that "the communists run the media therefore the right are oppressed
"This is it 100%
These neoliberal weasels are DESPISED and people reach for the right because there’s no alternative. Think about how much the other guy would have to be loathed to lose to ancap man
They could literally have just voted for the woman that ended in third place, no? Was she not better than Milei? This isn’t “they had no alternative”, this is the alt right manipulating the narrative to get the people to vote on the worst possible candidate. It keeps happening again and again all over the world.
I can’t wait for libs in a couple years arguing “Argentina was not real anarcho capitalism” to grasp for straws
Don’t get your hopes up. They’re pretty proud of how Pinochet allegedly created an economic miracle. They’re going to find some line that went up during Miley the dog whisperer’s reign and use that as proof of how good they are at the economy. Or they’re just going to blame the woke left for sabotaging them.
My friend, who is an argentinean barman in São Paulo, was celebrating that the argentinean stock market opened with tge funny line going up, like if that line changed something from someone else except rich people.
they even say Hitler had an economic miracle because he solved unemployment by no longer counting women and minorities as unemployed and also drafting people
That is going to hurt

The opposition had zero plan and bungled this hard on their own, this should’ve been as easy to combat as Hillary against Trump and yet they let their hubris consume them and lead to their downfall.
The centrist opposition should try to take some personal responsibility of their abject failure for once in their entire existence instead of blaming complete non-entities in the Argentinian political sphere.
Who’s the opposition?
God, I’m too high to have someone staring at me like that
That guy looks like a villain from a bad 70s movie.
He looks like Austin powers without glasses
Lololol, he does.
Did he glue caterpillars to the sides of his face?
My hot take: Every country gets to have their own trump.

He’s trying to bring back mutton chops for that 19th-century admiral vibe.
And the 1970’s sexual predator vibe.
I can fix him
