Now that libertarianism is a proven objective success, why do you still reject it?

I have less of a problem with the economics of libertarianism (they proved very successful like you said), but with the social aspect: Druggies, sexual degenerates, rabid open-border lunacy.
Line go up but being an alienated, hyper-individual without identity or belonging is more damaging to the soul of a social creature like a human than economic hardship ever could be.

Libertinism doesn't have to be part of libertarianism. I don't think people should be locked in cages for doing drugs, but I do think it should be discouraged. I believe there should be social stigma for a lot of these antisocial behaviors, but that's not what the state is for. Also open borders aren't necessary a libertarian idea either. I mean it's really a system that revolves around private property.

we have pretty liberal social laws and immense, unimaginable prosperity already and social isolation already exploded and people are more unhappy than they ever were.
And identity and belonging isn't even necessarily talking about friends anyways, but a tribe, a very extended family, a culture, also a goal that's bigger than yourself. Humans are made for being part of a kind of collective, we like it and we thrive in it spiritually/psychologically, it's obvious.

>Libertinism doesn't have to be part of libertarianism.
fair, but I (at least at first glance) would say, that this is a small minority position in libertarian thought though. Same with being against open borders. The last one is especially hard to sell the "we need more freedom" crowd.

The main source of inflation are commercial banks who create credit out of nothing.
The higher the interest rate, the more they want to lend (and thus create money, fueling inflation), except, as you can see in the EU, they then still don't lend to help the economy, but rather cherrypick big borrowers since one credit of 10 mil with interest is more profitable and less of a hassle than 10k credits at 1000 with interest.
As far as Milei stopping inflation goes, I don't care enough about the country to have the full picture, but he nearly completely loosened the competitive use of USD in his country, only controlling the exchange rates to some extent. You can make deposits in USD, pay in USD, can use your hidden USD funds without getting taxed for revealing them, etc. So, it looks to me like he stopped inflation of the Peso by simply allowing Argentina to inflate the USD instead.

are you slow on purpose? It's not some weird "what if" scenario either, we are ALREADY living it.
People have less friends, say their live has no purpose, people marry less, people care about their families less. And all of those problems you can link directly to liberalization of: Divorce and marriage law, atomization of the person because ethnocentrism or religion is taboo or on its way out, liberal laws about abortion, sexuality and birth control destroyed the match-making process, migration: because our societies are filled with people who don't speak our language or speak it badly, don't follow or like our culture or understand our attitudes. If you can't talk to your neighbor, the chance that your neighbor becomes your friend is close to 0. If your neighbor hates your culture, he won't like you either.

And libertarian thought will only accelerate those processes even further.

I am talking about clear observable social trends we see in every advanced economy from Japan to South Korea to Germany to the UK to the USA and all you have is ad hominem and some retardation about taking your pot away:

No, I have friends.
No, I have a great relationship with my family and my parents are still married at age 65+.

That you don't understand that finding friends and being part of a larger mono-culture are not synonymous BUT very dependent on one another, is troubling.

No, not by itself, not increasing the money supply is a good start but there is a lot more to actually get inflation down versus pausing a rise in the rate of inflation month after month, year after year etc

ok, you don't understand that fewer doesn't mean 0 necessarily.
People report fewer friends on average than in the past. That's a trend Putnam famously observed and warned about in Bowling Alone. That means more people have no friends as well, but many people have friends but fewer than they would have if they were born in 1950. And the funny thing is, you brought up friends specifically, I talked initially about being part of an identity group or collective, which is related but still very different. You can have friends and be culturally+ethnically Chinese and you can have friends and be culturally+ethnically Norwegian, but you can't be culturally Norwegian and Chinese at the same time, at best a weird mix.

And yes, a "nanny" state shapes culture because it influences deeply how people behave, are you dense: You drive on the right side, the Brits drive on the left side. Why? Because it's the legal requirement. That's a massive cultural trait on which side of the street you drive.

>Libertarianism is proven correct because it is needed to cleanse the socialism
Libertarians don't understand national interest and just worship the economy, not realizing that the global economy doesn't give a shit about them and could move capital out of their country almost instantly if they got a slightly better rate somewhere else. Capitalism always incentives slave labor because you don't have to pay slaves. Once entrepreneurs run out of ways to innovate they just focus on reducing labor's wages. That's why they flood countries with immigrants and care very deeply about the birth crisis. The birth crisis means labor will get more leverage and better wages and they absolutely hate it. Milei was needed to fix the mess the socialist created, but if left in power would create a whole new libertarian mess.

Their currency is still in free fall. So the fact that prices are no longer rising so sharply can only mean that they are lowering people's standard of living.
