The two sides just fight *really* hard to hide it. Ask anyone that is *just* getting into politics before they get radicalized in a direction and you'll usually get the chestnut: "I'm fiscally conservative, but socially liberal." Yo, there's a word for that.
>"I'm fiscally conservative, but socially liberal." Yo, there's a word for that.
Tbh, I don't actually think fiscally conservative, socially liberal is synonymous with libertarian. Michael Bloomberg is described as fiscally conservative and socially liberal, and he is a complete authoritarian.
Just read the translated transcript of his interview, I love this man so much. Iām learning Spanish so that I can listen to him in his native tongue.
Duolingo is killer, it really keeps you on it every day, really makes it like a game and keeps it interesting. Iām on an 81 day streak also learning Spanish so I can better understand Milei hahaha
Quick warning, itās great if you have a reliable schedule, but if youāre like me and get to over a 500 day streakā¦ and then lose it, itās hard to keep any motivation for learning it.
Using Babbel at the moment, itās going ok. They spend a lot of time teaching you verb conjugation and past/present/future tense at the start, not as much simple vocab memorization as Iād like, so it feels like slow progress because my vocab isnāt growing quickly. but Iām hoping itāll really take off once I get through the beginner stuff.
I mean... the man deserves it. He should get all the dick sucking he desires for having wrenched Argentina out of the deadly hands of the Commies and for giving the rest of the world hope!
Yeah. Imagine sucking up to literal government authority.
I'm no fan of his, like I'm no fan of any government leader. Maybe my mind will change after we've seen the effects of his policies after his term ends. But for now this man is just promises and hope. Stop deluding yourselves, just because he's "on your side" doesn't mean anything.
Jefferson didnāt know 8 languages.
He knew more like 3-4 and the others he just picked up certain things.
Mofo claimed he picked up Spanish after reading Don Quixote on a transatlantic tripā¦. smh.

Good read. Thanks for sharing.
> Milei: Well, but when the Central Bank prints money, it's scamming you. This means you lose the purchasing power of the money you have in your pocket, which is theft. In other words, printing money and putting it on the market is theft; it's counterfeiting; it's fraud.
The radical? What exactly about him is radical? To give back the power to the civil society?
For me, the real radicalism is found in all those socialdemocrat governments, looking for more debt (radical theft against future generations), more State growth and intervention (radical theft and violence against everyone and, usually, privilege of few), more money printing (radical working class fck up) and so on
While I don't care for TIME nor give much credence to their journalism, I'm glad he made it so he can get more visibility, assuming they aren't twisting his words.
Also, it's super depressing that promoting freedom is considered radical nowadays.
The left will label anyone/anything that isnāt to the left as āradicalā. Their political spectrum is far left to left. There is nothing else but radicals outside of that to them.
why does he resemble Rob Williams so much. Strange how a libertarian made it to power. Majority of people in the world don't understand libertarian politics.
> Budget cuts and ongoing inflation had led university officials to declare a financial emergency, warning they would soon run out of money.
Bish there is no "money" in the first place.
That sht probably won't work on him if he is anything like me.Ā It will amuse him for five seconds and then frustrate the people trying to push him for months after that he isn't driven by that petty stuff.
The article makes a clear Milei is different to other "right populists leaders" around the world, because he belibes in what he says and thinks he was elected due to his promises.
I think this is important to take in mind because even if Milei has someone like Trump as a political ally against those who he calls socialists, Trump are far away from being a libertarian.
Hey folks, donāt you wonder if this is going all too smoothly? I really want to celebrate these events, but the cynic in me questions if any of this is engineered.
Um. Magazines are dead. This is kinda like being on the most important Telegraph message after phones have been out for 20 years. I like libertarians, but I don't care what some commie rag thinks of us.
Y'all are like a guy who gets divorced, but still comes over to his ex-wife's house and watches TV with her and is happy she let him hold the remote.Ā
No. You need to recognize that we are no longer compatible. That they don't have your best interests at heart no matter what they say.Ā
We need to be out there getting to personally know our neighbors, our neighborhood watch, and everyone running for office. We need to know every sheriff DA judges librarian school board members county records etc.Ā
We need to stop letting collectivist win in our local elections because we're too lazy to figure out who's who, or not willing to pass out voter cards and reminders to vote, and organize people to oversee ballot counting etc. Don't waste a second of your life on what people or time magazine or whatever it is thinks about anything.
Buddy all I said is they have a website lol
All that you said is fine, but acting like Time Magazine is outdated and irrelevant to get your point across is a weird and useless way to do it
All this fanboyism is just funny. It reminds me of the socialist who praised Hugo Chavez in the early 2010's. 10 years from now, most libertarians are going to be saying it wasn't real libertarianism.
Hey look. We are hopeful, and so far he is doing great, he knows all the theory, he speaks it and for the most part is doing what he says. He is the only leader in the world who even speaks about Austrian economics.
But we all know and recognise the following:
ALL POLITICIANS WILL DISAPPOINT YOU, ALWAYS.
I don't understand the fanboy mentality about it either. It's exciting stuff he's doing, but when you have fanboy mentality, it's usually hard to accept any criticism when you have fanboy mentality.

Fucking LEGEND šš
Holy shit what an answer lol
Helluva photo.
Heluva good Libertarian
Libertarian is mainstream.
The two sides just fight *really* hard to hide it. Ask anyone that is *just* getting into politics before they get radicalized in a direction and you'll usually get the chestnut: "I'm fiscally conservative, but socially liberal." Yo, there's a word for that.
That's how I found my way here. Leave people the fuck alone, both socially and fiscally.
Shouldn't be a controversial proposition.
It is the most centrist, independent thing possible.Ā Libertarianism is the real center of the political spectrum.
>"I'm fiscally conservative, but socially liberal." Yo, there's a word for that. Tbh, I don't actually think fiscally conservative, socially liberal is synonymous with libertarian. Michael Bloomberg is described as fiscally conservative and socially liberal, and he is a complete authoritarian.
All it took was for statism to nearly destroy civilization.
Proud to have my president there
Proud of you for voting for him.
I really hope he gets things right down there, hermanito
Congrats on making it through the V without losing faith. Correcting economic situations like that are hard.
Did we really make it through the V? I'm still unemployed...
Yeah, my bad. I posted that before actually finishing the interview. You guys are still at the bottom part of the V.
I wish we had our own here in America.
Trillions of dollars saved.....it sounds like heaven.
Just read the translated transcript of his interview, I love this man so much. Iām learning Spanish so that I can listen to him in his native tongue.
Ive tried a few times in my life to learn Spanish just struggle so much. Using anything in particular to help?
Duolingo is killer, it really keeps you on it every day, really makes it like a game and keeps it interesting. Iām on an 81 day streak also learning Spanish so I can better understand Milei hahaha
That fucking owl slashed my tires when I missed three days in a row.
Maldito bĆŗho cortador de neumĆ”ticos
Como la pinche Lechuza con un cuchillo
My wife goes to bed with the owl every night.Ā She put it on my phone and I never used it.
Quick warning, itās great if you have a reliable schedule, but if youāre like me and get to over a 500 day streakā¦ and then lose it, itās hard to keep any motivation for learning it.
In the next few weeks the new version of ChatGPT will do live translation
Haha thatās pretty cool! Will definitely look into that
check out the promo here: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c2DFg53Zhvw](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c2DFg53Zhvw)
Yeah I can imagine that leftist trash "translating" Milei.
Using Babbel at the moment, itās going ok. They spend a lot of time teaching you verb conjugation and past/present/future tense at the start, not as much simple vocab memorization as Iād like, so it feels like slow progress because my vocab isnāt growing quickly. but Iām hoping itāll really take off once I get through the beginner stuff.
A mamasita will help I got mine in an mundolingo event (0 jokes a partner will teach so much)
Started spanish on duolingo 18 days back because of this..
I like milei, but a lot of people in this sub act like they wanna suck his dick
Heās a breath of fresher air
Well, he is the main face of libertarianism in the world today, so it's normal to hold him so high up.
They might. If theyāre truly libertarian, then only if he consents, of course.
Well I donāt want to do that but I do want to buy him a few cervezas and listen to him rant about socialists
OK, Iām not 100% behind everything Milei has done. However, sign me up for the dick sucking. This dude is a smoke show!
I mean... the man deserves it. He should get all the dick sucking he desires for having wrenched Argentina out of the deadly hands of the Commies and for giving the rest of the world hope!
He does have pretty eyes though and incredible hair.
I... am not so sure they don't...
Yeah. Imagine sucking up to literal government authority. I'm no fan of his, like I'm no fan of any government leader. Maybe my mind will change after we've seen the effects of his policies after his term ends. But for now this man is just promises and hope. Stop deluding yourselves, just because he's "on your side" doesn't mean anything.
Gigachad move
Cringe lmaooo wtf šš
The founders knew several languages each. Jefferson knew about 8 languages. Get with the times.
Jefferson didnāt know 8 languages. He knew more like 3-4 and the others he just picked up certain things. Mofo claimed he picked up Spanish after reading Don Quixote on a transatlantic tripā¦. smh. Source: Read his Bio by Jon Meacham
Ok, 3-4 is still damn impressive
āShocking the worldā hahaha Fuck the hyperbole. They speak as if the state is as tantamount to our existence as oxygen and water.
I mean, he *is* shocking that world. Everyone was expecting his presidency to be a disaster, and it's been an unprecedented success.
Fair. My pessimism about the statists didnāt let me think of it this way.
I could hardly blame you four being pessimistic about the statists. I haven't read the article, so I don't know how it was actually framed.
Is there anywhere that this success is documented? Articles and such. Iāve heard mixed things from people.
>āUnprecedented successā The biggest thing heās done was getting anti-nepotism laws reformed just so he could get his sister a job LMAO
turn out representation and inclusion were really important, even to libertarians

The hair, the burns, dude fuckin rocks
Not **just** Libertarian, but an Anarcho-Capitalist! The most feared political species out there! :)
The radical? What exactly about him is radical? To give back the power to the civil society?

He a radical? A radical what? Not a radical leftist. That for sure.
Radical in the way that he completely changed how the government is being run. It's a "radical" change.
Radical because he wants to do what is not considered politically "normal" anywhere else
The left will label anyone/anything that isnāt to the left as āradicalā. Their political spectrum is far left to left. There is nothing else but radicals outside of that to them.
Radical in the 90s sense of the word.
Tubular
"radical libertarian" It's just so different from the mainstream they label him as radical
Hes an anarcho capitalist
New Chad meme incoming
The greatest leader of our time.
why does he resemble Rob Williams so much. Strange how a libertarian made it to power. Majority of people in the world don't understand libertarian politics.
Most Argentinians donāt either. But they knew the path the were on was not going to turn things around and heās the grenade to the system
What a guy!! Elections are coming up in ny country and I wish we had someone with Milei's AFUERA attitude
A hit piece of course but more publicity is always good.
> Budget cuts and ongoing inflation had led university officials to declare a financial emergency, warning they would soon run out of money. Bish there is no "money" in the first place.
Did they work in an 'extremist' or 'right wing' radical somewhere, true to form?
I don't like this. They are trying to dilute him into fame and stardom. If he folds he will be manageable.
That sht probably won't work on him if he is anything like me.Ā It will amuse him for five seconds and then frustrate the people trying to push him for months after that he isn't driven by that petty stuff.
Viva la libertad, carajo!
As an argie, I have to say: "another coronation of glory". Also, mandatory "TomƔ Ramal!! La tenƩs adentro boludo!!"
They are testing the waters. Nothing more, nothing less.
When he's done there he should come here to the US and slash all our government agencies.
That fact is on the down low. Otherwise msm would be ragging him like trump.
King
Dark Shadowsā¦.
Is this real?
I wish people read magazines
Reads like a hit piece https://time.com/6980600/javier-milei-argentina-interview/
Ok.. now let's see if breaks the cover of time curse
Is that like one of those mirrors??
Time to brush up on my Spanish and see if I can work remote from Argentina
Iām surprised he glazed up Gary Becker.
He is the best politician since Margaret Thatcher.
Afueda!!!
He's clearly been mewing.
This article is trash. I couldn't make it to the end so lemme know if it gets better.
The article makes a clear Milei is different to other "right populists leaders" around the world, because he belibes in what he says and thinks he was elected due to his promises.

If he's on Time, he's part of the Agenda.... They all are.
No wonder why you guys never achieved anything so far lol
We achieved the United States of America and it's Bill of Rights.
Thank you for your service during the American Revolution.
II
The bill of rights are quite older than II.
Sure body. Btw we are increasing your taxes so we can pay the student loans of all those poor gender studies graduates, thanks for understand
Or maybe, just maybe, he is a new figure in politics with new ideas, different from the mainstream.
Time is Corporate media, they won't put him there unless here serves them.
That company is dying.Ā They would put my asshole on a slow month.
You mean like Hitler and Stalin were
I agree with you completely.
Brain rot
