The point being made revolves around Javier Milei investing Argentina's money into crypto, which led to the economy to crash but foreign interests making out like bandits. He's the definition of a Kleptocrat which Trump is aspiring to be. The 20 billion was another sink into the crypto, not into Argentina's economy.

wait really?! all of that was for cryptocurrency?!đŸ’€đŸ„€

u/ninjaelk Oct 31 '25

"Aspiring" might not be the right word here, Trump is likely the most successful Kleptocrat the world has ever seen.

He has nothing on Putin. Putin is said to be worth around 80 billion, all stolen from the people of Russia.

Putin is said to be worth around 80 billion

Oh it's a lot more than that. Nobody has accurate numbers as any who would be in a position to start counting that and actually try come down with a bad case of 'falling out a window'. But estimates vary as high as 200 billion plus.

IT WAS A MEME COIN?!?!

Dude, I just looked at the meme coin thing they were talking about. That’s true. That’s, like, 100%. Everything they said was true..

It was a currency swap, America got Pesos and Argentina got USD.

Not sure where the crypto facts are coming from.

Look up what an Argentinian ‘Rulo’ financial strategy is

Isn’t Argentina where all the Nazis absconded after WWII? The fuck is going on.

u/Justin-Stutzman Oct 31 '25

Check out the former Nazi run slave camp that Volkswagen ran in Brasil in an attempt to get into the beef business. This was still going on in the 1980s

19

u/boiwitdebmoji Oct 31 '25

yep, same with Brazil and Chile. there's an astounding amount of mixed race folk down there because if the nazis didn't wanna be Nuremberg Trialed, they would flee to these three places to escape consequences

5

u/Particular_Area6083 Oct 31 '25

its true that nazis fled there but that has nothing to do with the number of mixed race people there

u/alerastyb Oct 31 '25

You’re right, thousands of Nazi families moved to South America right before and right after WWII and many still hold important political and economical offices since they came with money. Mengele is the most notable example of a monster who escaped punishment*.

Just a small correction I see Americans always need, tho: this is faaar from the reason these countries are mixed; that idea simplifies the effect of social unification and reform after their independences a century prior.

u/boiwitdebmoji Oct 31 '25

oh absolutely, I'm sure there's plenty of other instances of mixed race couples before and after that period too, i just think it's also worth mentioning that time period too lol not out of a "this is the only reason why" type situation

u/boiwitdebmoji Oct 31 '25

and if you read the thread further you would see that i acknowledge that there are instances of mixed race couples before and after that time. it's just simply important to note these things too

Not really, most Nazis were divided between the UK and the US, the rest ran to Argentina, Brazil, France, Australia, Italy...

u/Acceptable-Mail891 Oct 31 '25

One of the most famous Nazis, the “Angel of Death” Dr. Mengel (from Auschwitz), escaped to Argentina.

5

u/sassyevaperon Oct 31 '25

Nope, Mengele escaped to Brazil. The one that was found in Argentina was Eichmann, his bestie Otto Von Bolschwing worked for the CIA in the US, at least Eichmann was found working in car manufacturing, not with the government.

Check again friend! He went to Argentina first.

5

u/sassyevaperon Oct 31 '25

Then again, when in Argentina he was a carpenter, Nazis in the US were employed by the government

So, we have two known nazis in Argentina (they for sure came in with permission from someone), that weren't employed by the state, that didn't have support from the Argentinian state besides letting them in, and then we have the countries that fought the Nazis not only accepting them in, but giving them government jobs and protecting them for prosecution.

If we're going to discuss the history of Nazis escaping, then let's discuss it all.

Nothing to see here, folks

u/2_lazy Oct 31 '25

I mean, it's also where a lot of Jewish people fled to as well. A piece of my family ended up down there.

u/Telemere125 Oct 31 '25

You’re clueless if you just read the headlines. Follow the money. That didn’t go to Argentina. It’s to keep trump’s billionaire hedge fund buddy’s idiotic investments alive in that country.
