Let’s break it down:

1. Paternal.

Yes. Paternal energy is order forming. The role of a father is to be a leader. The role of a leader is to establish order and to be an example. I used my words very deliberately. Milei’s job and in fact, DUTY, is to bring a paternal form of leadership - the opposite of what a standard statist will do, which is to bring chaos and immaturity.

2. Shepherd

Related to the above, but more relevant to the fact that most people are sheep.

And I don’t use that as a sleight here. Whether regarded sheeple or just good people that aren’t interested in being “out in front” and want to follow a good example - the fact of the matter is that most people need a shepherd

That does NOT mean a meddling bureaucratic micro manager. That doesn’t mean some statist wierdo that gets in all your business, watching over your shoulder ever minute. That’s not a shepherd. That’s a deranged lunatic.

A good shepherd guides.

He cares for his flock.

He ensures that they are protected from danger

That’s the role of a good leader.

Milei intuitively carries both energies.

Hope that clarifies.

A welcome clarification. I knew what you meant. My position with politicians though is that it’s almost always premature to call it…

Premature, perhaps.

But in life we get what we reward.

I think if people like us keep voicing support, then there is a reinforcing factor

Indeed. But a politician / elected official should have to earn the authority that given to them, everyday.
