    Can we theorize a situation where an average Argentinian voter consciously chooses a short term crisis with the prospect of normalization over a lifetime stagnation and decay? Argentina’s economy was shit for a long time, and maybe people’s intent is to wreck things for a change?

        I know they’re out there, but there can’t be a significant enough bloc of them to swing things. I’ve never encountered one outside of the internet, and even on the internet they mostly seem to be acting facetiously.

          I know tons of them IRL. They just said things like this country is already shit? What’s the worse thing that happens, Trump burns everything down? That’s what we need to happen anyway to move forward.

          I have heard that sentiment a lot.

      Do you have any evidence that a significant number of voters have ever voted for short-term harm to enable some hypothetical future benefit?
