These neoliberal weasels are DESPISED and people reach for the right because there’s no alternative. Think about how much the other guy would have to be loathed to lose to ancap man

Guys I hate to admit it but I think I'm coming around on this guy. I can't remember the last time I read three straight paragraphs where every sentence manages to somehow up the ante, truly incredible stuff. People are comparing him to Trump, but Trump could never be this cool.

Milei is the owner of five English Mastiffs, with the progenitor being Conan, who died in 2017 after suffering from spinal cancer.[45][269][270] He considers Conan his son and has named four of Conan's six clones, including one named after the original and another named Angelito,[277] Milton (in honor of Milton Friedman), Murray (in honor of Murray Rothbard), Robert, and Lucas (both named after Robert Lucas).[278][279] Milei said that he cloned Conan because he understands cloning as "a way of approaching eternity".[270] To do this, he went to a clinic in the United States; the process cost him about $50,000.[270] He has described his dogs as four-legged children and thanked them after his 2023 primary win.[14]

Milei stated that he communicates with the dogs through a mystic.[10] For example, he commented that the new Conan provides ideas on general strategy, Robert is the one who makes him "see the future and learn from mistakes", Milton is in charge of political analysis, and Murray of the economy.[280] When asked about this by El País journalist Martín Sivak and Nicolás Lucca of Radio Rivadavia, Milei did not deny it, and said: "What I do with my spiritual life and in my house is my business. If Conan advises me on politics, it means that he is the best consultant of humanity."[269]

Milei said he had dialogues with the likes of Rothbard and Ayn Rand. In 2015, he cited Conan as a source of inspiration for his writing.[269] About Conan's death in 2017, Milei said that Conan had not really died (he described it as "his physical disappearance" and continued to refer to Conan in the present tense) but had gone to sit next to God to protect him, and that it was thanks to this that he had begun to have talks with God himself.[281] According to González, Milei wrote to a friend in a chat: "I saw the resurrection of Christ three times, but I can't talk about it. They would say I'm crazy."[45] According to various sources consulted by La Nación, Milei maintains that he and Conan have a mission that was assigned to them by God and has a mystical story with Conan. He said that he met Conan, who was a lion, as a gladiator in the Roman Colosseum about 2,000 years earlier.[282]

A couple of months ago he went on an interview and just completely lost his shit, hearing voices and talking absolute nonsense

Uhh you got a link to this? I gotta see it lol

I think a lot of people straight up refuse to acknowledge that they are exploited by anyone. As a slight to their character or something if they acknowledged it.

What gets me about this is that conservatives genuinely think that "the communists run the media therefore the right are oppressed "
