Javier Milei wins Argentina election

Is it automatically better in North Korea? Or under the Arab Socialist Ba'arth Party in Syria? Cuba or Hamas?

"The right" certainly don't have a monopoly on being poor judges of character, or leading countries to disaster.

On that basis the net result of Nazi rule was a massive increase in the size and scope of the state, central planning, rationing and restrictions on trade, which could be seen as left wing.

I think the idea would be that religion teaches us each how to properly use the freedom that we have, whereas libertarianism merely clarifies what freedom is.

Through the eons, religion and freedom have not been common bedfellows.

I'm hoping this is a new trend , resulting in Ted Nugent becoming POTUS.
You gotta try it...

He could have a 2nd career as a Robert Shaw lookalike when he gets turfed out by the electorate after they discover his ideas are impractical nonsense.

Not sure how you drew that from my explanation. Those things are wholly out with the concept of libertarianism, and to be honest, Christianity as well. That it happens is not the fault of the rules that they should follow.

All libertarians begin with a conception of personal autonomy from which they argue in favor of civil liberties and a reduction or elimination of the state.

Secondly of importance is the concept of property. That includes ownership over your own physical body and the products of its labor.

Things that would, and should be set out in law to punish those who transgress against those basic fundamental rights of freedom. Bearing also in mind that Milei is technically an Ancap (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anarcho-capitalism) and is more in line with the ethics of the Non Aggression Principle.

On the moral point of view, the ten commandments would prohibit both of those.

THOU SHALT NOT KILL. - unjust killing; suicide; abortion; sterilization; dueling; endangering life and limb of self or others.
THOU SHALT NOT STEAL. - theft; damage to the property of others

In 2020 Milei called Pope Francis an “imbecile” and “the representative of the Evil One on earth” because he defends “social justice.”

He has also called Pope Francis a “filthy leftist,” an “embarrassing communist,” a “piece of st” and a “potato.” (The Spanish word for “pope” also means “potato.”)

So he has no particular love for the catholic state as an institution it would appear.
