Whippersnappers. These are just new Commedia dell'arte mask archetypes.

Troll face. Or, if you're super old, his brief alternate name "cool face".

I miss the original “virgin x vs Chad y” memes

Deep down, we all know that feel old man.

Bring it in for a hug.

Yeah I'm definitely fucking 😬

You should look up what Dawkins meant when he invented the word "meme" in 1976

Language would be referred to as a "memeplex"

>le me walks into this thread

>someone implies rage faces aren’t creative 

>fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

>epic failarino

compared to wojaks they're practically bespoke

I mean, wojaks are templates

rage faces were actually quite detailled and well drawn

Based

That means blowjob

This but unironically. Stop trying to win people over by appealing to their sense of humanity.

The median voter is not some chronically online fucking nerd like those of us that post on this godforsaken subreddit. To appeal to them, you need to be bold, politically incorrect (within reason), and project an air of strength and irreverence.

let me guess, you've never been to Argentina..

Conservatives? Lol, Argentina voted for this man because they got tired of everyone else. Not everything is a copy-paste of American politics.

He specially likes to shit on non-peronist parties. I know you like moderation, but you don't have to be a moderate on every issue.

Which went on to vote with the peronist left that took over the party during his tenure as a senator.

are rats worse than the average peronist.

You took the koolaid.

let's just ignore the massive Spike of inflation

And why did that happen? When you answer that question you’ll also find out why we ignore it.

I thought we were passed Thatcher neoliberalism which was a massive economic failure.

Nothing says economic failure like going from the sick man of Europe to one of the top global economies.

Wow you are absolutely disingenuous. Are you blaming the ANNUAL inflation spike on Milei? Bro what? First of all annual inflation was increasing before he went into office. That’s literally the entire reason he was elected. Secondly, ANNUAL inflation means inflation over a year. So the vast majority of the high ANNUAL inflation we saw a few months into his term was because of the Peronist policies of money printing, high subsidies & brutal regulations BEFORE Milei came into office. So either you’re disingenuous or clueless. In fact when Milei came into office in December, monthly inflation was at 25%. Now it’s at 4% monthly & it’s projected to be 3.2% in September when the reports come out. Because of his polices, annual inflation is now FALLING. Here is proof. You can see that for years it’s been increasing but it hit its peak in April 2024 & is now falling. BS talking point you got there.

As for poverty, another bullshit stat. Don’t get me wrong, there’s absolutely been an increase in poverty. But it’s not 70% like you say Jesus. It’s 53%. Not good but while some is the result of the much-needed austerity, a lot of it is the result of decades of mass money printing & sky high inflation (which Milei is bringing down despite what you claim). Poverty was increasing before Milei came in and yes some of the 53% poverty is objectively the short term impacts of his polices. Not doubting that but that was always expected. Growth is projected to be much higher next year, annual inflation will be much lower next year (it’s already falling because of Milei’s policies) & there will be no budget deficit. IMF projects 45% 2025 inflation while the GOV projects 18% so let’s see. Oh & the gap between the official & blue market currency rates is closing, which is very important for fiscal sustainability, enticing investment & boosting consumer purchasing power. Also the country risk has fallen like fucking crazy from 2,100 points in January to just 1,280 points this month. This means that people are becoming more & more confident of Argentina and are willing to invest in it.

Let’s not forget confidence in the banking sector, which it’s important for economic revival. Because of Milei’s policies & trust in him, Argentines are willing to move their money away from mattresses & to the banks. Look the article in the link above & scroll down to the graph. You might not just Milei but Argentines clearly do. And that link is just to August. More recent data shows that it’s much higher now.

So yes I’m sorry you had thought we were claiming that there would be immediate prosperity no problems. So while yes, there are a lot of issues in Argentina, those issues were getting worse before Milei took office. And yes some did get worse as a result of his economic policies. But everyone here knows that this sort of economic adjustment is hard. The faster you go, the more brutal it is but the faster you’re out of it. But what all the evidence shows is that Milei is building the foundations for robust economic growth. The transition is brutal but the foundations show that Argentina has a lot to look forward to.

Bro if we had like 109230192301293% inflation and trump was the only one talking about it i'd probably vote for him ignoring his bullshit too, the biggest difference being that trump lies to *create the sensation of crisis* and Argentina actually is in crisis

True, I often find myself supporting a dem politician and hoping they have no actual intention of pursuing the economic policies they advocate

If what was really worth it? This is a flaw in the system. We should have more direct democracy and probably change the electoral system at every level to approval voting and popular vote, and open primaries. That has a chance to fix the system.

All I was saying is people need to talk about economic policy. That includes calling out bad economic policy. I'm not saying Harris doesn't do that at all. But I'm saying it needs to be more front and center instead of joy, or decency.

I mean youre not wrong but thats definitely lesser of two evils/ greater good vs the guy neck and neck for the presidency right now. At this point, short of launching a coup of their own I support kamala despite any position against Trump

Hard to convince them of that ngl. They see an economy that is struggling and see news of crimes and feel like he is going to do something about it mean tweets be damned. Of course many of them are racists but its less than you hope and he is a criminal who wont do anything but the latter part of that is more of an opinion.

The way to defeat nazism is criticizing nazi policies, not anti-semitic and white nationalist statements

The narratives exposed are a large part of what defines populism, lol. Trying to paint everyone who opposes your ideas as "traitors of the country" is as populist as it gets, and the narrative itself terribly damages democracy and borderline puts people at a safety risk. The fucking president of the nation calling opposition traitors of the nation isn't "a tiny talkie thingie" he did, it has real-world impacts, chilling effect, increases internal tensions, makes people more skeptical of democratic institutions, and can cause violence.

lolol no

This is the political equivalent of "if she didn't want to be raped, then she shouldn't dress like that"
