Idealist nonsense, says the person who wants to divide up all natural resources equally into amorphous national state boundaries regardless of the wishes of the people who live there, until all national states have equal populations, areas, and access to natural wealth?
You're literally just spewing more idealist nonsense. You know that countries are a thing that still exist right? Either Argentina gets to benefit from the islands, or Britain (lmao) does. You're saying the British should benefit because they colonized some islands hundreds of years ago and there's a couple thousand people there. If there was 1 person living in the Falklands, would that justify oil and gas drilling and a British military outpost?
people who live in a place when they have not displaced a native population do matter more than a random government who are pursuing an imperial claim from their former imperial masters yes
Or maybe (radical, I know, wow), people matter equally, and we shouldn't forcibly deport or integrate them into various countries due to arbitrary vibes?
lmao are y'all trying to do a "reverse colonialism" thing? Literally the only thing that would likely change is who they pay taxes to and where they get there food from (shipped from Argentina probably instead of shipped 7,000 miles).
this is why the Nazi occupation of Jersey was good and socialist after all the island is closer to continental Europe than England and that is the only relevant factor when deciding which country an island should be in. The fact that they culturally are English and don't speak German or French as a rule is for some reason irrelevant here
Alberto Fernandez has already implemented some social policies. Countries like Venezuela use oil money to directly benefit the public. Imperial powers all have more wealth among the populations than non-imperial powers. Maybe a non-imperial power should get access to oil off their coast? It would be as easy aa nationalizing the oil there, as many countries do.
And that wealth doesn't translate into better living standards. It's almost as if capitalists will hoard resources no matte rhow much is available.
This is such obviously false coping.
Capitalist countries, famous for nationalitising resources
A bunch of capitalist countries have been nationalizing their resources.
the oil in the area is not valuable not to be extracted.
Must be why Britain has spent billions to setup extraction. This is just "Venezuelan crude isn't profitable" all over again. Imagine thinking oil isn't profitable.
lol idealist nonsense. Argentinians would see more wealth from owning the islands than they do now.

yes, because people matter more than realpolitik shit
Apparently poor Argentinians who could benefit from social program funding don't matter, but white British people living in a colonial outpost do.

When did anyone say anything about deporting people?
Sorry, my bad, you're going with "forcibly integrating".

it isn't "reverse colonialism" it's just colonialism

Does Britain have a higher standard of living than Argentina?
