Repeat after me:
There are only “far right” politicians.
There is no such thing as a “far left” politician.

Yep the “Centrist” candidate is the one responsible for the mess of a country. Go figure.

Milei has dialled down his inflammatory rhetoric in the weeks since October’s vote, hoping to seduce voters put off by his radical ideas, which include closing more than a dozen ministries, cutting ties with Argentina’s two biggest trade partners, Brazil and China, and condemning the pope as “a lefty son of a bitch”.Radical?! Sounds pretty good to me.

All ‘left’ is “far left”. Fundamentally all on the left are in favor of totalitarianism - just as long as what is being dictated is what they agree with.

Get out the Guardian decoder ring:
Far right = decent human being
Centrist = Authoritarian tyrant.
To: cgbg
Anyone the Guardian likes is far left.

Yep the “Centrist” candidate is the one responsible for the mess of a country. Establishing the worker's state, nationalizing all industry, eliminating political opposition, collectivizing agriculture and ensuring that all children are brought up with a Marxist outlook are not good reasons to use quotes around the word Centrist in your post. Isn't that what all centrist candidates do?
To: cgbg
Yep, they just can’t help themselves with trying to brand a person who isn’t a leftist and baby killer, a far right kook.

The thing is their over the top hysterical article is so funny it’s on FRs front page. It’s worth it.
And they wonder why millions are going to vote for Milei today

If Milei pulls this off and wins the election, it will be interesting to see if he actually takes power, the leftist in South America and all over the world won’t give up power willingly, he could end up with a Brazilian necktie or some of fate where he will assume room temperature.
Remember in Spain recently the leader of the conservative right party was shot in the face and killed.

Better be more than narrow if they want to win.

Yeah, the ‘non-radical’ rampant government spending which led to 124% inflation is sooo much better.

“Far right”. So is that like a moderate conservative?
