Check out some of the reporting from before the election https://www.economist.com/the-americas/2023/09/07/meet-javie...
Look at some of the actual details around his wish list, the fantasy of dollarization is a favorite of mine https://english.elpais.com/economy-and-business/2023-11-24/d...
Compare what's promised to what actually occurs. Did he attack the privileged, were the poor lifted out of poverty, has free enterprise restored a moribund economy? https://www.npr.org/2025/02/09/nx-s1-5280631/argentinas-rece...

I don't know how productive it would be to give you random examples as I am wuite biased and find just about all of his actions to be despicable. It sounds like you may be living in something of an echo chamber of sorts. I recommend seeking out news sources that may challenge your beliefs and relying less on social media and YouTube videos. I'm not really sure how to help you to be honest though. Are you watching/reading some form of news on the regular? For me it's NPR but I try to watch some conservative news as well to see what the other side is up to, how they're reacting.
I did see the news reports about him with a chainsaw. He seemed like a nut when I saw that.
And I then watched the Lex Friedman interview and read the profile in the New Yorker.
I was surprised in that my initial glance at him was not positive but my opinions shifted.
Please give me other nuanced and intelligent discussions. I'm sorry I missed the ones you read.
I am a us citizen. I will say the fact that Milei seems very enthusiastic about Trump is very damaging to his brand for me.
