He apparently respects any type of consensual sex, hyperbolically including sex with an elephant. I do not know how to feel about the fact that he’s okay with zoophilia (which is rape). It’s also very dehumanizing to compare people’s sexual orientations to having sex with animals.
“¿Qué me importa a mí cuál es tu elección sexual? Suponete que vos querés estar con un elefante, si tenés el consentimiento del elefante problema tuyo y del elefante”
In reference to public funding for gender-affirming care and public education, he said: “I have no problem, but don’t impose it on me by the state. Don’t steal money from people to impose someone else’s ideas on them. That is violent.”
On the topic of transgender rights, Milei has stated that he “does not care” about gender identification “as long as you do not make me pay the bill”, and compared it to identifying as a cougar.
Again, it’s a very dehumanizing position towards trans people.
He also doesn’t seem to be an LGBT ally even though people classify him as “socially progressive” (lol). He’s at most tolerant of our existence, but he doesn’t seem to be the guy that would do anything to protect the LGBT community if it ever came to protecting them. And the fact that he’s against state funded gender affirming care, which is life saving to trans people, is quite sad to me. But whatever, you guys do you. I’m not so sure turbocapitalism on steroids will save you. I personally dislike this guy’s half assed positions and think he will turn on you the moment he “needs to respect the decision of the people”.
Isn’t he also trying to push an abortion ban right now?
The bill, presented on Monday, calls for the repeal of the Voluntary Interruption of Pregnancy Law and for abortion to be criminalized for both the woman and those who participate in the procedure.
Sucks to be a woman down there I guess. But whatever, they’ll be martyred for “the good of the economy” and Milei’s “plan to save Argentina”.
Also good for you that you voted for him? You don’t have to be so defensive, I never attacked your “beliefs”
