Javier Milei speaks to the “people who believe”, not having any political ideology. Although it may not seem like it, in our way of thinking, there are always beliefs and perspectives inherited from our parents, our grandparents, friends, and these beliefs determine a good part of our preferences, our way of understanding life, and how we behave. Ideology explains a good part of how we behave. also our ideology is related to pocket, which sometimes indirectly regulates the functioning of the brain. There is no person whose ideological and political definition is clearer and more forceful than the one who says: “I have no ideology nor do I identify with politicians nor do they represent me”. If Milei represents you, one of the best politicians of recent times represents you. Out of nowhere, in just a few years he achieved what others couldn’t in his entire life. And yes, ideologically you are from the contemporary extreme right. You are going to vote for what political scientists call post-fascism or neo-fascism.
We all have an opinion: how the State should work, what the people should do, how this or that should work. Ideology is that, they are beliefs, ideas and feelings that guide and express when it comes to judging the unions of thugs, the picketers who block the street, the usurer bankers, the poor because they are lazy, the rich are bad, and so on. They are set mental schemeson which we rely.
ANDThere are very basic ideologies: left and right
- Conservatism (right)
- Liberalism in economics (right)
- Liberalism in politics (left or right)
- Socialism (outside the capitalist system): collectivism or anarchism
- Socialism (within the capitalist system): social democracy
The political position of each person can be interpreted more or less, according to those ideas. There are also methodologies As the Populism: We could synthesize populism as: “a method of responding to the demands of society.” It is not an ideology. Populism can be: “right-wing populism or left-wing populism” and all its intermediate variants.
Examples of populism: Donald Trump, Jean Marie Le Pen, Jair Bolsonaro, Mateo Salvini, Narendra Modi, Carlos Menem, Evo Morales, Cristina Kirchner, Inacio “Lula” Da Silva, Rafael Correa, Hugo Chavez, Nayib Bukele…their ideological contents are fluctuating and sometimes contradictory to each other, since they mix political philosophies.
Milei speaks to people with certain values
Human beings do not act unpredictably; behind our actions there are goals, objectives, which can be expressed in words. What moves us to act is not simply a need, like hunger or cold. Rational beings are capable of creating new forms of motivation through thought. Precisely, this determines the types of values, the ideals that we defend on a day-to-day basis: vindividual valuesvalues laborvalues businessvalues religiousvalues relativesvalues politiciansvalues aestheticvalues ethicalvalues materialsetc.
Milei ALSO talks to the person who knows NOTHING about history
The famous Litto Nebbia in Argentina sang: “Whoever Wants to Hear Let Him Hear”, band from the film Evita (1984). The song says:
“When we don’t remember what happens to us, the same thing can happen to us. These are the same things that marginalize us. They kill our memory. They take away our ideas
Words burn us. If history is written by those who win, that means there is another story, the true story: “Whoever wants to hear, let them hear.” Words burn us, they silence us. And the voice of the people. It will always be heard. It is useless to kill. Death proves that life exists…”
“Sometimes people don’t want to hear the truth because they don’t want their illusions to be destroyed” (Nietzsche)
Milei talks to people who don’t read
In his book “False Economy” Alan Beattie (editor of the Financial Times) wonders Why wasn’t Argentina the US? and his answer is simple: “while the US distributed the land in small parcels, Argentina gave it to a few families”. “The US favored usurping settlers, Argentina favored landowners”. The result was that while in USA the little land forced the entrepreneurs to the innovation to optimize and improve profits, by Argentine large estate he reached him with cows, sheep and barbed wire.
Beattie says that The US would have been like Argentina if the racist Confederate South had won the Civil War. These would be a kind of influencers of Milei.
The reduced power in the hands of a few people, US BLOCKADE The supremacy of the eighties was anti-American. They clearly felt semi-English and above American. Before President Juan Domingo Perón (1895) was born, in 1880 they rejected the President of the United States Rutherford Hayes, who enunciated a conclusion to the Monroe Doctrine.
The Monroe Doctrine was summed up in the phrase “America for the Americans” or what is the same “out the Europeans of America”reaffirming the opposition of the USA against European colonialism. But the farmers were comfortable with England as a partner and did not let the US pass.
Later, at the end of the 1st. war, grain and meat exports fell, around 1929, exports were already 2/3 lower. Yes, the US had begun a process of economic replacement. The Argentine elites rejected it.
USA had undertaken industrialization, and at the end of the 1st. Guerra invested his own savings in staying with the European industry (without resources after the war) and positioned himself as a world power. Oligarchic Argentina continued to export grains and wheat and disappeared from the world (Alan Beattie). Says an ideologically liberal economist, “pro markets” editor of the Financial Times, no one is further from “populism” than this liberal.
THE LIES
There are a series of false perceptions installed in the minds of many Argentines. For example, that Argentina in the first decades of the 20th century was among the most advanced in the world and became a world power. Fake. From this fallacy another perjury is sustained: that the decline of Argentina began in the 40s, with the industrialization processes, the intervention of the State and labor policies. Another habitual fiction is that by developing to substitute imports, the Argentine governments isolated themselves from the world.
In the understanding of economic policies, fictions take the form of events demonstrated, but without giving dataLike lately, who was the president who took on more foreign debt, who had more inflation, or because dollarization is good, or nationalization is bad and absolute freedom is good.
another farce is the one that the Argentina was the most civilized country from Latin America, and it sounds strange because we studied in primary school “anarchy”: the bloody, terrible civil wars, which caused thousands of victims, and began shortly after independence. Milei is not a liar, he just ignores the story and as a consequence he has been deceived.
