It gets better.

https://news.sky.com/story/argentine-peso-plunges-after-anti-establishment-presidential-candidate-javier-milei-wins-primary-12940234

"Javier Milei, 52, and his Liberty Advances coalition took about 30% of the total vote, according to official results.
Candidates in the main opposition coalition, United for Change, took 28%, while the governing Union for the Homeland coalition achieved 27%."

"He says Argentina's central bank should be abolished and wants to replace the peso with the dollar."

Lmao. The Argentinian Trump could be about to pull a trojan horse on BRICS; Get invited in and then replace the peso with the dollar.
Or maybe BRICS wants to abolish the dollar and replace it with the dollar aswell :rofl:

Inb4 Argentina adopts the dollar and pard shills tell us Joe Biden planned it since 1984 :thumbsup:

So Johnny, here is the thing. I get the whole free trade thing, and the rest of it. Probably a whole lot better than you do. Age and all that.

However, what you so easily dismiss is the fact that authoritarian regimes simply care about power. Religion is not about any god, it’s about power.

So nothing will improve for the people of Iran if we enable the regime to further their authority over the Iranian people. Theories are fine, but authoritarian governments don’t generally play by your text books


Your problem is you fail to recognize isolation and sanctions have never worked. Not once. You pretend that allowing Iran into global finances will let them oppress he population more than it does. But noone ever has any descriptions of exactly how Iran would be more capable of oppression. They already have iron fist control and the resources of the nation available to them. How exactly is letting them trade going to hurt the population more than it already is? All sanctions do is convince nations to hoard more wealth from the people. It never hurts the regime.

All In podcast had a really good discussion on bricks expansion. Start at around 29 minute mark if you want to skip the other subjects they had before

You're mistaking the aim of those sanctions. By keeping them poor and underdeveloped, you statuate an example to anyone who goes against your policies and make them sell their useful resources for cheap. If middle east would have been a properous region, oil price and all goods' prices would skyrocket (transportation cost).
Best way to reduce CO2 the logical way is to let middle east develop :lol:
Problem is sanctions backfire like with Russia if a critical mass of followers isn't achieved.
