Hey, remember when people were saying Milei was a "Libertarian" and saying he will show the world what a "Libertarian" Country could look like? Remember that? Remember him dressing up as Captain Anap?

Almost immediately, dare I say the moment he got into power, he fucking went full fascist complete with the suppression of protests and propaganda announcements at railway stations. This is why I hate Right wing "Libertarians" (or as I like to call them, "Fauxbertarians"). They basically want a Corporatocracy. They'll be like "I want the state out of our lives" one moment, then once with a modicum of power, they use it to increase the power of corporations over our lives and crush any dissent with a vigour the likes of which you only see in North Korea. They want the "government" out the lives of corporations and into the lives of everyday people. It always turns into a corporatocracy with these Children of bitches.

Among his plans to downsize the State, President Milei has been saying that he intends to replace government workers and organizations with AI systems. The first role that he will give to this technology, however, will be an expansion of state agencies: on Monday his government created the Unit of Artificial Intelligence Applied to Security.

LOL how the fuck is mass surveilence of people downsizing the state?
