(By Maqueda, Maurizio, and Otero) In a digital world where metrics and impressions can spark heated debates, Javier Milei's interview with Tucker Carlson has captured global attention. This seemingly unprecedented encounter has generated both enthusiasm and skepticism on social media and in the international community. We not only analyze the metrics but also explore why this interview has become an online phenomenon.

The impact of Javier Milei's interview with Tucker Carlson has been remarkable, with claims that it is the most-watched interview in the history of the West, surpassing even Tucker's interview with Donald Trump. However, doubts have been raised about the accuracy of these metrics and the role of social media interactions. Here, we break down the myths and realities surrounding this interview and its overwhelming success.

The Incredible Popularity of the Interview

Since it was posted on the X platform (Twitter), the interview has garnered more than 410 million "views," surpassing even Tucker's interview with the former President Trump, which reached around 265 million views. It is undeniable that Milei's interview has made waves, sparking debates and discussions worldwide. Some suggest that Elon Musk, owner of X, contributed to its success by sharing the video on two occasions.

Metrics and Realities

It's essential to analyze the metrics that support these claims of success. The "views" referred to are, in reality, impressions of the post, indicating how many times the tweet appeared on a user's timeline. This doesn't represent the number of times the video was actually played or the number of distinct individuals who watched it. In other words, if a user saw the message multiple times due to retweets or interactions, multiple impressions are counted.

Why Milei's Insights Are Valued Today

Javier Milei has gained notoriety due to his bold and controversial approach to economic and political issues. In his interview with Tucker Carlson, he discussed inflation in Argentina and other hot topics. His straightforward and unfiltered perspective has attracted audiences worldwide seeking unconventional political analysis. His ability to communicate effectively has contributed to his social media success.

In summary, it seems to reflect, with a certain simplicity, the frustration of a large part of the world's population with the distortion of issues such as freedom, the role of the state, and ideological fanaticism applied to the economy and the restrictions proposed by globalism, communism, and socialism.

Milei's Success: Coherent Knowledge and Practical Communication

What no one is saying is that this interview has led to the co-creation of millions of videos on Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, Twitter, and all sorts of apps and social networks. It is flooding the digital space not with content generated by political ideologists but by millions of individuals without "political affiliation or party adherence" who agree with what Milei is saying.

This is a political phenomenon because people without a left or right or center ideology find Milei's coherence to be a logic that perhaps all proposals for state administrative and economic policies should use as a basis and then add political nuances from there. What may seem like an insult to many is common sense for a significant portion of those who adhere to it, without being of any political profile, and this is the most decisive fact worldwide.

The Role of Elon Musk

Elon Musk, one of the most influential figures on social media and owner of X, shared Milei's interview on two occasions. It's important to note that these actions didn't generate views for Tucker Carlson but rather for Musk himself. This has raised questions about whether the 410 million views were a direct result of Musk's actions or if users who saw those posts entered Tucker Carlson's original tweet.

Interaction and Views

The interaction figures in relation to views have also piqued interest. Typically, it's estimated that about 10% of people who view a post interact in some way, whether through comments, likes, or retweets. However, in this case, with 413 million views, there were 308,000 likes (one for every 1,341 views), 81,400 retweets (one for every 5,077 views), and 15,200 comments (one for every 27,190 views). In comparison, Carlson's interview with Trump had more significant interaction relative to its views.

The Role of Fernando Cerimedo

Fernando Cerimedo, the businessman who facilitated the interview between Milei and Carlson, has been a subject of speculation. Besides facilitating the connection, Cerimedo is a social media expert and the owner of La Derecha Diario, a media outlet that promoted the interview's success. In an interview, Cerimedo admitted to having trolls, raising questions about whether there was additional influence on the interview's metrics.

An Incredible Boom Impacting Even Highly Communist Societies Like China

Javier Milei's interview with Tucker Carlson has been an online phenomenon that has attracted global attention. While the metrics are impressive, it's important to consider the complexities behind these numbers. Elon Musk's influence, impression metrics, and social media interactions are aspects that need to be evaluated when analyzing the interview's impact. Whatever the truth behind these metrics, it's clear that Milei has made his mark on the international stage and challenged the established norms in the world of politics and digital media.
