Far-right outsider Javier Milei wins Argentina’s presidency

Recommended Posts

https://www.cnn.com/2023/11/19/world/argentina-vote-milei-massa-nov-19/index.html

Milei, a social conservative with ties to the American right, opposes abortion rights and has called climate change a “lie of socialism.” He has promised to slash government spending by closing Argentina’s ministries of culture, education, and diversity, and by eliminating public subsidies.

“Make Argentina great again!” Trump posted on his platform Truth Social Sunday, in reaction to Milei’s win. “I am very proud of you,” he wrote.

Would be great to have a candidate like that to vote for here in America.  We don’t.

He’s actually very libertarian from what I understand: Which, if true, means that whatever his personal opinion on social issues like abortion and LGBT, he won’t attempt to impose them on others. That would distinguish him considerably from the majority of American far right conservatives. But we’ll see if that is true.

Libertarian != conservative.

Also, it's your side of the aisle that is trying to impose your will on the people.  I'd call it "authoritarian leftist" but "authoritarian" is implied when you're speaking of liberals an leftists.  They all espouse to move to the same endpoint: Socialism/Marxism/Communism.  And that is definitely authoritarian - and deadly - ideology.

Climate has been changing since the earth was created.  No one is denying this.  Stop being disingenuous. The debate isn't whether the climate is changing.  It never has been.  It's about the transfer of money and consolidation of power to the hands of a very few.  A very few who most certainly won't be sacrificing anything.  But you, I and the rest of the little people certainly will.

How about just being honest once instead of gaslighting and demonizing those that don't belong to your cult?

They’ve quadrupled-down on the authoritarianism in the name of climate change emergencies

Man-made climate change is disastrous for the human race and we need to take immediate action to alleviate it if we can. What that action should be is open to debate. There’s no cult. Anyone who denies the reality of man-made climate change as an existential crisis, with no connection to natural climate change, deserves to be demonized.

That's not true.  There are definitely facts in science... but there are a vast number of theories, that outnumber those facts.

Cull 90% of the world's population.  Common sense internal combustion engine control.  Prohibition on private yachts, jets, planes, motorized boats, snow machines, and all forms of recreational motorbikes.  Personal vehicles with internal combustion limited to 40 horsepower and no more than 1000 lbs. in weight.   Eliminate air travel, return to trains and ships.  Eliminate bulk mailing.  Absolutely outlaw the commercial shipping of water.  Restrict consumption of red meat to 1 pound per week.    Consumption tax on plastic packaging.  Outlaw irrigation of residential lawns.  Outlaw single family residential air conditioning though allow swamp coolers. Outlaw wood burning, whether in fire places or smokers. Any unemployed person would be mandated to plant trees for 4 hours per day to recieve even consideration for government benefits.

80 years of liberalism & socialism has all but ruined that once wealthy country.  Over 120% inflation.  The people woke up and demanded change.  :dunno:

It's also disingenuous to stop here with the debate.  I have not read one thing that didn't acknowledge this, even when people believe we are accelerating it. 

See we agree all this political crap is about the consolidation of power.   One huge difference in our pov is I see it as 1% vs the rest of us and party matters very little.  You and most here post as though it's evil commies vs the virtuous conservatives.

Congrats Argentina and this dude,

Everyone the corporate globalist media mouthpieces don't control is a far right outsider, the chances they are right is not zero but close enough that it doesn't matter. I wouldn't read too much into the label. I don't know enough to say but if Argentina politics is on your radar, I'd recommend watching the guy and figure it out for yourself.

  • I don't know if the pope is a leftist... I think the Catholic Church is just saying what they need to say, to keep the Leftist's off their backs.  It's not working though, as we see in the Geek Club, so I'm not sure what they're really accomplishing.
  • I agree that there shouldn't be a distribution of wealth, but I wouldn't call that act, violent.
  • I think he's right about Climate Change.  I think everyone is on par that Climate Change exists, but I think only the extremists think it doesn't or it's a huge problem.
  • I agree with his point about leftists.  As much as they ignore the obvious, the right isn't moving at all... the left is constantly moving further and further left.  If someone campaigned on exactly what Bill Clinton did back 1992, he'd be on the Republican ticket.
  • As far as the Central Bank of Argentina, I don't anything about them to even comment.
  • I agree with him as far as not wanting to deal with China, but that may work for Argentina, but it won't work here.  We're too involved at this point.
  • He's right about abortion, but I'm still ok with abortion up until a point... but only if the government isn't subsidizing it. 
  • He's right about politicians... all of them.

Globalism is inevitable. And it means freedom. The opposite of globalism is slavery.
