Milei is pledging economic shock therapy, including shutting the central bank, ditching the peso and slashing spending. His challenges will be enormous: Empty coffers, a $44 billion debt program with the IMF, 150% inflation and more.
Wow thats a lot of propaganda you are spreading. Massa had 16 years and only made the country worse. The people need a change. Mille may be a mistake but Massa plain does not care. He stole as much money and is leaving. Massa just quit being president even though Mille is not taking over until mid december. Massa is leaving the country tomorrow.
I agree with you on Massa, and on needing a change. But I also think Milei is likely gonna continue to drag the country down plus whatever brand of crazy he wants to stick to once he gets into office.
The truth is you were gonna be screwed (economically) either way. Massa did not give a shit about the country and his greed plus his incompetence (if not his disregard for the good of the people) led to the 140% inflation Argentina is currently experiencing. Milei on the other hand is legitimately crazy (I’m not talking about the conservatism) and also economically incompetent. I understand why he won, and I agree that Massa led the country to the disaster it is in now.
The options you could have voted for were both essentially promising to drag the country down. The only difference was that Milei hasn’t had a chance to prove it yet, and that makes him seem more promising than Massa who has proven to be who he is. Short of a miracle or a revolution, you were always gonna get the short end of the stick, economically speaking (which is what most voters obviously care about). I wish you the best and still hope it might turn out better than it seems right now.
And thats why Milei probably looks attractive. Accelerationists probably think he is the perfect person to put in power to lead the state to an eventual revolution.
And that‘s what‘s happening world wide. There are no answers to the huge challenges in front of us. The only choices offered are the establishment that brought us here or a crazy caricature of essentially the same thing.

That’s the thing though, right? Something needing a change doesn’t imply any and all changes being good.
I don’t see how op contradicts with what you said.
