Argentine Anarcho-capitalist Hero Javier Milei Cites Walter Block
October 16, 2023
A friend of mine wrote me as follows:
Have you noticed that Argentine anarcho-capitalist hero Javier Milei has cited you as an influence many times? This tweet–replying to a post that has since been deleted–is just one example of many:
Te sugiero que leas el libro de Walter Block “Defendiendo lo indefendible”. Te hará sentir un PELOTUDO por lo afirmado en este Tweet.
— Javier Milei (@JMilei) August 20, 2017
Translation: “I suggest you read Walter Block’s book “Defending the Undefendable.” It will make you feel like an ASSHOLE for what is stated in this Tweet.”
I googled this, trying to get other examples. I got nowhere. If anyone can help me on this, I’d be very grateful.
Best regards,
Walter
