The internal libertarian is no longer hidden even in public. What remained for months in the gray area of rumor—the tensions between the territorial shipowners of Karina Milei and digital operators Santiago Caputo— ended up exploding in the open, with an episode as grotesque as it was symbolic: Sebastian Parejapolitical head of La Libertad Avanza in Buenos Aires, trumped Translator Loves Youalias of the tweeter Esteban Glavinichin the middle of the closing ceremony in Rosario. The fight was not an isolated anecdote, but the physical manifestation of a confrontation that had been brewing for weeks between the two poles that structure mileism: the real power structure and the digital virtuality that sustains it.
The libertarian fracture
The Rosario episode marked a point of no return. Glavinich, one of the most active tweeters in Caputo’s core – with “Gordo Dan” and his army of coordinated accounts – had dedicated a good part of the campaign to attacking the Buenos Aires shipowners, whom accuses of “recycled caste”. Pareja, on the other hand, claims to be the political builder of Karina Mileiwith a territorial base and institutional presence. In their environment, the line is clear: trolls serve to inflate egos on networks, not to win elections.
When the two met in the park in Spain, the digital dispute became literal: tripping, falling and fists. “It was an old-fashioned ideological debate,” said a leader who witnessed the scene ironically. The truth is that Pareja, far from regretting it, redoubled the bet. “We have three national deputies, twenty provincial legislators and three hundred councilors. They can’t touch us,” he warned, with a phrase that sounded more like a threat than a diagnosis.
The sentence was read as a direct message to the circle of Santiago Caputowho at this time is pressing for his boss to be confirmed as future Chief of Staff, displacing Guillermo Francos. Within the government, the fight is no longer about ideological nuances but about control of power: who is in charge, who negotiates and who speaks in the name of the President.
Caputo versus Couple
The confrontation between Caputo and Pareja is not new. They represent two models of mileism. The first, that of “The Forces of Heaven”, responds to the original design of the star advisor: direct communication, libertarian epic and militancy 2.0. The second, that of Pareja, is more earthly, of mayors, leaders and provincial structures. While Caputo imagines a government governed by algorithms and spiritual loyalty to Milei, Pareja claims the classic thread, which guarantees votes, cash and management.
In the presidential environment, they admit that both sides detest each other. “They can’t be seen,” confesses an official from Balcarce 50. Karina, mediator and jealous of her symbolic power, plays a balance: she needs Caputo to sustain the story, but depends on Pareja to keep the Buenos Aires machinery afloat.
The Rosario incident was just the symptom of a deeper battle. After the blow, Ramón “El Nene” Vera himself, Pareja’s lieutenant, threatened Glavinich on social networks with publishing an alleged video of another attack. The mafia language they encounter—“if there is a photo, there is a video”—illustrates the extent to which the libertarian intern lost all composure.
Macri and his candidates
In parallel, the dispute had an unexpected echo within the PRO. Fernando de Andreis, Mauricio Macri’s historic operator and today a libertarian candidate in the Capital, publicly criticized Caputo’s trolls: “Every time they tweeted, we lost votes.” The phrase fell like a bomb on The Forces of Heavenwho responded with a mixture of misogyny and sarcasm: “Let him come out from under Mauricio’s skirt,” they replied.
De Andreis tried to separate his figure from the digital excesses of the ruling party, but ended up exposing the mutual distrust that still dominates the fusion between the residual PRO and the milleism in power. For Macri, Caputo’s circle embodies an adolescent and unproductive logic: “a government of trolls that confuses influence with politics.” For pure libertarians, on the other hand, the macristas are opportunists who seek to recycle their power in the shadow of Karina and Javier.
The mockery about De Andreis’s worn jeans or the personal allusions are part of a symbolic war where the objective is not to convince, but to humiliate. This climate of permanent aggression is eroding the cohesion of an ruling party that is defined by polarization and ends up devouring itself.
Driving vacuum
At the top of power, Javier Milei observes the chaos with a mixture of helplessness and calculation. Those who know him say that he avoids getting involved in internal fights, but uses them to keep his allies in line. Divide and rule: a principle as old as politics itself. However, wear is visible. The government agenda was overwhelmed by cross operations and territorial bids.
Guillermo Francos, who is trying to maintain an institutional dialogue with governors and legislators, became the target of attacks from the celestial circle, which considers him a “moderate.” If Caputo finally assumes the leadership of the Cabinet after the elections, as is discussed in the Casa Rosada, the internal balance could be completely broken.
