it's unclear to me what will happen in the runoff, but looks like Massa actually has a pretty fair shot at winning this from the initial vote

And of course, Massa winning means BRICS entrance + continued Yuan usage + improved ties with Argentina

Milei winning means dollarization of Argentina and who knows what other crazy things.

If I'm an Argentinian, I certainly wouldn't want a guy who operates a chainsaw while being closely surrounded/packed by people to rule my country. That's violating OSHA rules on so many levels.

Not a surprise that petro would shift Colombia to china a little bit. Remains to be seen how far he can go before facing a coup attempt

The guy probably completely bombed out his campaign too. People really overestimate how much support LOLbertarians have and how much substance their ideology has.

A person who attacks both the right and left, advocats abolishment of central bank and sovereign currency etc. gaining 30% of votes makes me more worried of the Argentian population than the person himself.

Let's just say they are in the position they are in for a reason. I sympathize them but it will not be easy to fix them.

Have you been to Argentina?

It's a beautiful country with wonderful people.

If you have seen what Argentina has gone through in the past 50 years, you would not say this

Argentinians have been betrayed by their elites and attacked by US influence operations

The people are tired of voting one or the other party and only managing to make things worse. So what do they do, they go radical and vote an outsider, who is bombastic, offers radical solutions, is not part of the establishment etc, reminds you of another case where it happened in the same hemisphere...

People's concerns are valid, but the way they are used for action is a fundamental problem of democratic political systems. A skilled demagogue can easily play on the voters' concerns to push his own agenda.

Its easy to blame the people when you are from the outside, but its much different when you know that whoever you vote for, he doesn't improve your country at all and actually degrades it further. People are desperate, and desperate times call for desperate actions
