Result falls short of giving Milei a congressional majority but surprises many analysts after series of scandals
The party of Argentina’s far-right president, Javier Milei, has won Sunday’s midterm elections after a campaign in which Donald Trump announced a $40bn bailout for the country and made continued aid conditional on the victory of his Argentinian counterpart.
With more than 95% of ballots counted, La Libertad Avanza secured 40.84% of the nationwide vote, in an election widely seen as a de facto referendum on the self-styled anarcho-capitalist’s nearly two years in power. The Peronist opposition, Fuerza Patria, secured 31.67%.
While the result falls short of giving Milei a congressional majority – which remains with the Peronists – it has surprised Argentinian analysts, given the recent blows to the libertarian’s popularity from corruption allegations involving his sister to the current economic crisis.
Choose your flavour, democratic socialism is probably the most “centrist” left. it maintains capitalism but ensures a decrease in inequality and eliminating poverty and hunger…
Further left you get more utopian ideologies (some mutually incompatible), Like mutual aid, anarchism, socialism, planned economies… and much munch more.
Some were tried and were successful until the fascists or CIA intervened. Look at operation condor, the closest thing to an anarchic state is DAANES, which is a feminist federalist state which the mainstream media completely ignores and is fighting for its life in a war against NATO.
the reason we don’t usually hear about the left, is because anything left of liberalism tends to get murdered by the CIA. even today, Mandami is being threatened with deportation despite being an American citizen for being a socialist and leading the polls.
