He says he despises the state and among his plans are cutting 90% of all taxes, a 90% ancap will lead us into 100% Anarcho capitalism still, we just need the results to speak by themselves

I’m not sure of that, but I agree with Bastiat: The state is everyone trying to live at the expense of everyone else.

that would never happen in "our democracy" based on "fundamental human decency"

I agree with that one. The lefty/Marxist/socialist/communist/murderers just have to rouse the populace’s envy and greed and they are off to the races again. Until we find a way to defeat envy and greed, nothing will change. Perhaps the only way to defeat envy and greed is to have abundance of everything. Then, we would only have greed for power to deal with.

10% is 10%! If I were to put a gun to your head and demand 10% of your property, would that be ancap? I don’t think so.
reply
Well I already have a gun on my head that says pay 50% tax, 10% of my property is as ancap as it gets! And that was deemed impossible until the Milei phenomenon, in the future 100% ancap will be the new normal

The only change is the slave collar you wear is slightly smaller and lighter. However, the slave collar is still firmly attached to you and locked around your neck.
reply
If everyone feels a lighter and smaller collar at the same time, they will want even less of it, this is why I believe Milei will pave the way to 100% freedom if his project succeeds, most people don't feel the weight of the collar until it is lighter, then they are like "holy fuck that thing was heavy on me before"
reply
Are you saying that they don’t feel the collar at the taxation rate they have now? You mean they didn’t revolt already by electing Milei?
reply
I mean the rest of the world doesn't, everywhere else the collar just gets heavier, but they are now listening. In Brazil for example the taxation and currency devaluation is at the worst level of its history, and now everyone is looking for a "Milei" to elect, even if his actions don't have any meaningful result yet, now imagine how the rest of the world will feel if he actually removes 90% of taxes and Argentina prospers
Argentinians did one of the biggest moves for the movement imo, it's already hard enough to elect right wingers let alone "libertarians" who get like 1% of votes most places so people usually are also afraid of voting for the less popular option and "wasting" their vote so I guess Milei being funny and popular in social media was a major boost to their revolt, but not his policies alone
reply
Someone has to emerge in each country that is anti-statist and willing to run as a candidate for an office in the state. If that sounds like a contrary situation, it is. To find people like Milei will be difficult for a lot of reasons.

You may have to find someone else. The people currently running the country would need strong action to remove.
In popularity yes but according to court he can't run due to a Jan 6 event.
Now in the world there are "Trump like" candidates, and there is a run to find "Milei like" candidates until the time comes, otherwise nothing really changes
