I do. In his rhetoric: "Argentina’s sovereignty over the Malvinas Islands is non-negotiable." That's not a libertarian position. That's an authoritarian position. Going through "diplomatic channels" to achieve this authoritarian position, does not make it any less authoritarian. There's still plenty of opportunities for Milei to prove otherwise, but between this, and his vocal support for Ukraine against the "aggressors", his understanding of the right to self determination does not look good. And without a good understanding of the right to self determination, can he truly be libertarian?

Ahem. She's non-binary, ok

The way that story is reported does make it seem that Milei has a suspiciously low regard for the self determination of the people living in Falklands. The island doesn't belong to Argentina or the UK. It belongs to the people living there.

Excellent point. Welcome to the forums

One thing I've noticed in about every one of these vids I've seen is the total lack of any attempt to defend themselves or fight back on the part of the victims. It seems like most of the time they just attempt to back away, go straight down, curl up and take it. Also, the attackers usually come in flailing about like a 3 year old throwing a tantrum, not exactly MMA fighters moving in for the kill. A heel palm to the nose, jab to the throat, thumb to the eye or even a good old fashioned kick in the nuts might be enough to end a lot of these scuffles if the victims would just stand up for themselves. In my experience, nothing ends these things quicker than the attacker winding up in a bloody heap on the floor, preferably with a couple of his buddies going with him. Or maybe I'm just behind the times. Just seems to me to be yet another manifestation of the results of vilifying even the knowledge of self-defense.

If only.

Argentina has a new president =)

Is there any at all? Then it’s too much.

That’s MAGA Republicans. Get it straight.

“Because everybody’s shit’s emotional right now”

Cody's work as well as everyone that contributes and supports it, is one of the best developments of recent years :up:

Garbage video. Surface level propagandous bullshit that could have been written by cnn. The only redeeming factor of this video is the generic "proxy wars is bad" theme.

This time for sure.

That’s EXACTLY what a white supremacist WOULD say. You racist bigot you.

Hmmmm. That’s strange. Just a bunch of memes from over on The Libertarian Enterprise. Never had any problems with them before. Thanks for the heads up.
