Expecting a lot of these kinds of headlines to follow the next couple of months.

He looks like late-stage Elvis actively dying on the toilet.

[-] BeMoreCareful@lemmy.world 4 points 8 months ago

He is a pretty wild looking dude.

[-] Gradually_Adjusting@lemmy.world 41 points 8 months ago

Why does he always look like he's holding in a cough

[-] Burn_The_Right@lemmy.world 38 points 8 months ago

In other news, Milei dissolves courts and arrests judges in Argentina.

[-] jordanlund@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago

Being reported as "fake news" but I'm 90% sure the sarcasm tag is missing. Leaving it alone.

Is this crazier or more sane than that one american president who consulted the horoscope for major decisions?

I'm down voting you not because you're wrong or I missed the "/s" but because of your atrocious spelling.

I can't seem to get over that this dude looks like the lead in a bad 1970s comedy.

[-] reagansrottencorpse@lemmy.world 28 points 8 months ago

Why did you elect this turd, Argentina?

[-] Kraven_the_Hunter@lemmy.dbzer0.com 60 points 8 months ago

There was a good segment on Last Week Tonight several weeks back. The choice was between a guy who was part of the original problem and promised no changes or this guy. People knew more of the same wasn't going to work so they took a gamble and hoped that the crazy guy would stumble onto something.

[-] DigitalTraveler42@lemmy.world 26 points 8 months ago

The part about his dogs was hysterical, if this dude is really that nuts and talks to his dogs for advice then it explains so much.

[-] Eldritch@lemmy.world 19 points 8 months ago

Because he wasn't the other guys. He just works with them and is less mentally stable. Win win right?

[-] ZILtoid1991@kbin.social 35 points 8 months ago

The "not like the other guys" gives us leaders like Donald Trump, Viktor Orbán, Bolsonaro, and now this Milei guy...

[-] TunaCowboy@lemmy.world 13 points 8 months ago

Upholding the status quo increases the desirability of "not like the other guys". Politicians who campaign on hope and change only to deliver more of the same are equally culpable.

[-] Eldritch@lemmy.world 12 points 8 months ago

Yep, they're part of the reason we can't have nice things. The people who keep them unnecessarily busy, stressed, and ignorant are the biggest part. But they help still. Not understanding candidates or platforms.

[-] dubyakay@lemmy.ca 3 points 8 months ago

But Viktor has been the "other guys" for over a decade now, but thanks to eliminating two-round, minimum-turnout elections and gerrymandering, he's been virtually uncontested and can spin everything whichever way he wants. The Fidesz of 2010 is very different than what the Fidesz of 1998 was.

[-] ZILtoid1991@kbin.social 1 points 8 months ago

In the now Fidesz controlled media, he still is. If something goes wrong, it's either foreign or opposition party interference, if they don't cover it up with other controversies (like the Gábor Kaleta incident with the cHIld ProTeCtiOn act).

"I hate taking the stairs 4 floors down. I guess I could try jumping down from a window!"

Another coked up douchebag leader LOL
