Well that was the plan, Javier Milei just wants to completely destroying the country.
and the right wing plan is to simply increase the suffering until the problem fixes itself… they are sure this will work somehow… eventually…
Argentinians really do need to take a page out of France’s 1790’s journals. Lots of really effective tools that will correct the problem quickly; in particular the redistribution of stolen wealth, and the few surviving parasites at the top suddenly being on their best behaviour instead of acting like uncontrolled vampire squids.
The government sanctioned murders against anyone who spoke out against them
And also against thousands of corrupt pieces of shit who for centuries had enjoyed power and privilege over the masses.
A small price to lay for a better standard of living in the long term.
Replacing one tyrant with another tyrant doesn’t solve the worker’s plight
Replacing a monarchy with a republic is a move away from tyranny.
Are you willing to pay that price?
If theres a revolution would I not also be at potential risk of some abuse in the aftermath? So sure, its a price we all have to pay to push things forward from living under destructive systems.
Not just abuse, it could be your life. Revolutions have a tendency to get very bloody once the distribution of power starts to take place. Often targeting former comrades who also want the reigns of power.
redistribution of stolen wealth
How are they going to get the stolen wealth back from US and Europe?
This paints a picture in direct opposition to the Milei posts yesterday. Which made the situation seem bright.
You mean the one about the government surplus from the government not doing the things it’s supposed to?
Yeah you can save a ton of money if you don’t pay your bills!

Stephen Harper did the same thing in 2011. He ran 6 straight years of deficit spending, sold Canada out to Nestle and the gas companies, cut funding to the public sector, and said “wow look at all this money I found! aren’t I the best politician?”
That was my post. I wanted to post about the poverty rate as well for juxtaposition, but saw that topic was already posted before me so I didn’t.
I mean we’ve had 4 years now if the situation being “not bright”. Even Milei got elected saying shit will hit the fan. It’s not something new for us down here
Wow, so the previous government had a poverty percentage of 0?
No, wait, they had 49% poverty by November 2023.
And you tell me that after all these changes to reduce spend, it went up by 8%? I would have expected it to reach 90% to be honest.
The whole goal of those changes is tough love to fix all the problems, so short term problems but in 2 years things improve for the better.
Administrations don’t have near as much control over the short term as you seem to think.
Lol, “if we do even less we will magically become better in the long term” is genius levels of cope.
Austerity doesn’t work, we’ve known this for a long time now.
People keep writing like Argentinians really believed Milei is going to fix the country. Most people were simply desperate and voted for him protest. If you still think they are stupid for protesting like this that’s fine. Let’s just be clear about what they did.
Shocker: Shock therapy still doesn’t work.
Quick, invade somewhere to distract from domestic issues
Alright Paraguay, time to take another one for the team
angry English noises
The worst part isn’t even the invasion, it’s that they make thatcher look based 🤢
If Milei saves the current Tory government by doing some stupid shit in the Falklands I will personally move to Argentina for the sole purpose of playing bagpipes outside his house at 3am every night
Haven’t Argentinians suffered enough?
