> Argentina, an addict to populism, seems to be shifting its affections from the left-wing Peronists to a right-wing libertarian, who promises to cure inflation by, among other actions, adopting the US dollar (again!). I knew it. Just one more ignorant poor sod who will talk about Argentinian politics without actually understanding the context at all. Stop trying to fit your left-right Anglo worldview to everyone else. It's pathetic and incredibly tiring. Go throw temper tantrums about your Tories and your republicans like you love to and leave the south American country politics to people who actually know them in depth or live their realities. Edit: pointing out Milei as populism while implying the "so called left peronism" isn't is laughable to the extreme. The quip about "adopting the dollar (again!) Shows a fundamental misunderstanding of the maneuver by Carlos Menem to force a constant parity between the ARS and the USD.
