He’ll gut the country, sell everything off to the highest bidder and him and his friends will make bank. Regular folks will be left worse off.
He’s another trump / bolsonaro strong man.
Lo siento mucho por la gente ✊
Both of them congratulated him so yeah.
Really wish 3rd world nations would try to pass 1st world ones instead of just following behind.
Cia is following your post
they tried
WHY are people embracing these kind of people and these kind of solutions?
Calling them “stupid” makes you feel smart until the world collapses in front of you. Something is happening to make a LOT of people choose wacko dictators to lead their countries and overthrow their constitutions.
I believe speed of change in society has increased to the point where people are afraid, like literally scared, and technology has moved ahead so quickly that again they don’t understand it and they’re afraid. They don’t trust the people who are titularly in charge of the transition and they feel powerless to enact change.
And somebody comes along and says I’m going to tear the whole damn thing down and they get excited and jump behind them.
All of those things you just wrote are symptomatic of lower intelligence. It’s not judgmental to say that most people are pretty stupid. We all have our moments of course, but most people are stupid when it comes to political ideology. Most people don’t know what the words populism, socialism, capitalism, fascism, communism, or democracy actually mean. You can see this anytime someone unironically calls something “literally 1984”.
Poor education and ultimately lack of trust. Distrust in our institutions, our fellow citizens, fellow humans, has been sewn for decades. The undercurrent of fear that propels these figures into power can’t be overstated. People need to stop being so fucking afraid of each other… easier said than done.
Lead poisoning.
Also, what nerd, after being stuffed in a locker by the middle school football captain, hasn’t wondered why he’s the one with the entourage.
People are shallow and act like idiots. It’s a sad reality. Sometimes there’s enough of those people to act as a successful voting bloc.

Came here to say lead poisoning! Happy other people get it.

That point is very American centric but it’s telling that that’s the only part you want to engage with, going so far as to misrepresent their position.
They said it was part of the problem, not “all the fault of” as you said.

190 countries, maybe it would be surprising if there wasn’t one of those types showing up a year?
I believe he said it’s going to take him 2 years to fix inflation.
Anyone want to place their bets about the future? Their current inflation rate is at 143%. I am going to say at least triple in two years… Let’s just cap that at a nice even 500% for the hell of it, shall we?
When a country gets that desperate, a bad situation usually gets much worse.
In contrast to this (only 2 years to fix the inflation issues. The inflation that has been around since 2002~). He also mentioned in his first speech that the country would take 35 years to go back as a world power if everything goes well. (Source 13:25/15:31)
I do not think this will happen (hope I’m wrong), knowing the country’s recent history, but I don’t disagree with the time. This stuff is very long term and needs many years of success to happen.
Many people in Argentina think that all the stuff can be fixed in just 2 or 3 years. But truth is, it can improve, but will need lot more than that to reach a “world power” / “first world country” level.
On the other hand, the level of corruption is so high, that by just reducing it, it would make wonders.
Things can improve over time, if everyone in Argentina is willing to take a massive L to their lifestyle/QOL.

@RemindMe@lemmy.world 2 years
Only way they could fix that type of inflation is with a currency surrender program so that it can be destroyed. Which won’t fare well for Argentinians.
This is not going to end well.
There’s a picture of a man holding a chainsaw that’s never used a chainsaw.
RIP Argentina’s natural resources.
Sad, Argentina is going to be destroyed because of this idiot. He is already declaring war against the United Kingdom.
To be fair, it’s going to be destroyed because of the idiots who put him in power.
He’s a symptom, not the cause.
Another fascist NWO agent, Argentina it’s fucked up, I mean the actual world is.
seems like a nice guy really
