My understanding was that there was nothing leftist about his opponent in this election. And that this dude who won is REALLY out there:
"And of course every cultural war speech you see in the US rightwing scene Milei believes and replicates, the idea that sex education is a form of indoctrination that they seek to sexually abuse and confuse kids that is harmful, that if you are gay and/or want to fuck an elephant he doesn't give a shit (yes, he actually said this in a recent interview) but NOT WITH MY KIDS, that abortion is a crime and he believes in the life of the fetus, that taxation is theft, that family is one of the institutions that should be protected at all cost, that the 2030 agenda is evil and real, that global warning is a communist lie, etc."
From someone who lives in Argentina and was scared of his possible win.
