> Argentina is by no means the first place where voters picked the guy peddling emotional comfort over the other candidates.

Have you seen the other candidate? Milei was the objective better of the 2, the other guy had been the de facto president over the past 18 months, inflation rose to 140%, poverty is over 40%, child poverty is over 60%. It’s not emotional comfort, it’s a rational decision.

So… which part of an anti-vax, anti-abortion access, climate denier is the rational part?

That he has an actual plan for the economy based on proven measures taken by other countries. The things you are complaining about are a luxury to complain in Argentina.

For abortion he proposed a referendum, so that people decide, like Britain did with brexit.

Antivax, he was against the Russian vaccines that the government got through shady deals.

Climate denier I won’t deny it, but Argentina doesn’t really contribute to climate change like USA, China and India do, and honestly, it has more accruing issues right now to worry about.

You think 10% inflation a year increase is bad? Think about it being 10% a month. The country in en route for hyperinflation within months if drastic measures aren’t taken.
