Now that the dust has settled, can we agree the Pinochet dictatorship

>>2906507
Yes

>>2906507
No

Sure. Otherwise Chile would have been in the state Venezuela is now. A pity there isn't a Venezuelan Pinochet to take over and save that country.

>>2906507
Realistically, yes.
Ideally, no, of course.

What the revisionist historians who made that image forgot to include was that there are leaked documents from the US and I think the UN showing how the USA deliberately sabotaged Chile's economy so people would overthrow Allende. Allende made some mistakes but it's ridiculous to ignore the huge role the US played in trashing Chile between 1970 and 1973.

Commies subverted, waged war on and sabotaged capitalist countries yet capitalism didn't fail like communism did.

>>2907186
Most countries in the world are capitalist, and pnly a handful of them are successful, usually for either military reasons or possession of natural resources.

Better than having the communist in there, but it did nothing for Chile in the long run. Pinochet only made the pro-communist sentiment in Chile stronger, which is why they'll likely get fucked anyway in the next few years.

The only way to erase any love for communism in a country is to actually allow it to take over, but the thing is that it gets really sticky and hard to remove afterwards.

The dude had plans for actual 1984-style state. Good riddance.
