  1. It’s almost like there’s repercussions when idiots vote in conservative idiots with bad hair

  2. This people are taken like live stock by corrupt organizations. They don’t represent anyone

  3. It’s always wild to me how Argentina knows exactly what it wants, which is apparently the mess of leaders they’ve had for the last 50 years switching out every couple of years if that.

    “Things were so much better before this” is a weird thing to hear out of ‘100% inflation mass emigration the only good money is US money’ gaucholand.

  4. Strikes in Argentina are ruled by mafia like syndicates who’s leaders have been ”reelected” for decades and are all multi millionaires ( one of them was arrested for having an illegal private zoo in Uruguay with exotic animals, Marcelo Balcedo )

    During the corrupt presidency of Alberto Fernandez ( to give you an idea of how corrupt he was search for Vip vaccination, the guy stole vaccines during Covid and gave it only to his friends while the rest of us died ) he didn’t had a SINGLE general strike, because he spent the entire government giving millions to the syndicate leadership.

    The worst president in history, who left us with 40% poverty rate, 60% child poverty, the highest inflation in the world, stole public retirement funds, didn’t had a single general strike in 4 years. Now little more than a month after we changed course, the multi millionaire union leaders remember that we have poverty ? What a joke.

  5. All those people right there? Do you see them? They are the problem, we are trying to change things to get as far as possible from their ideas

  6. Argentinian voters: mmhhh let me give my vote to this clown with his chainsaw!

    Also Argentinian voters: WTF this guy is crazy!

  7. It’s a political movement by the opposition. Wink, wink.

  8. To u/acqualunae , my answer to his comment

    So, according to you, when may we begin to protest? Did you expect people to do it when their basic needs were somehow fulfilled? That’s too much to ask for an Argentinian. They do it when they can’t make ends meet, which is now. If you think a month is too soon, ask a retired person how many days a month has

  9. Not a fan of Milei but it was funny reading the headline of first general strike since 2019, when Macri was in power.

    That means that the country got worst over time on several levels for years and they didn’t come out once. Now that their friends aren’t in control and chainsaw man over here is starting his term suddenly it’s all his fault and they have to do something about it.

    Can’t take this seriously at all.

  10. Elect a clown you get a circus. Never eject guys with shit hair. 

  11. Isn’t this what Argentines voted Milei in for – a serious reshaping of their broken economy? Something has to give – the unions can’t shield themselves from the economic pain it will take to get back on track imo

  12. Hello I’m Amelia, I live with my parents in California; My dad works on a fortune 500 company and my mom is a full-time housewife, she also takes me to the Standford University in her 4700 Pound BMW X6.
    Anyway, that’s enough of my backstory; I’m here to tell the poor & uneducated Argentinians how their new elected President is bad for them, i will show them evidence from totally unbiased sources (There’s no bias in western media) and combine that with my hatred towards ideologies that i don’t understand or dislike.
    I’ve seen poor regions before, like Detroit or Brooklyn & i learned that things could always be worse so they should’ve voted the other guy from the same party that ruled them 16 years and
    wanted to apply the same policies that led them here, but anything is better than Milei /s.

  13. I’m not that well educated in economics, but it seems to me like Milei’s monetary policies, while inflicting short term pain, may be Argentina’s only hope at actually developing their economy long-term.

  14. lol milei bots ready with their copypaste, get another job;

    economy was already in a bad place and now rents went up to 300usd in average, with a minimum salary of 120usd; food went up, gas went up, transportation keeps going up, more taxes are proposed, etc etc, but salaries stay down and there’s nothing to help workers or the poor

    no wonder people start to complain and strike

  15. Milei is a hero. Making more debt will not help Argentinia. The voted for him, time to let him fix the country.

  16. Things were better before? The country is in total collapse before.

  17. The libertarians are here to defend their strange patron Saint. I just want to fast forward to when everyone has accepted that this man has failed.

  18. Going to point out that the “Golden Age” of Argentina still consisted of a far lower quality of life than Argentines have today; just because they were one of the wealthiest countries at the time doesn’t mean their standard of living was anything close to what we consider “developed” today. Argentina didn’t decline so much as stagnate; a century of wasted opportunity, for many complex reasons, including excessive influence of the agricultural sector, foreign ownership of capital, and unusually-powerful unions.

  19. Argentina is the perfect country for rich people from outside the country to ravage. I can’t help but think this transition to a ‘libertarian economy’ (in a very un-libertarian world) is the final milking. Good fucking luck. 

  20. This strike was a total failure, at most 50,000 people gathered (when they were expecting 2 million). These criminals who went on strike do not represent working people. VLLC!
