>h-h-h-he dindu nothin wrong!!!! >h-h-h-he was only being tough against commies >not only violated pretty much every human right but also stole millions from public funds and was involved in several corruption scandals
How will rightwingers ever recover? LMAOING AT YOUR FACES
unironically must right wingers don't like him (mostly due stealing money), His support comes mostly from edgy ignorants kids, poor people (mostly from cop/soldier families) and some ultra-conservative people.
Xavier Martinez
he also introduced narcos and his former son in law currently finances the whole political spectrum
and he killed more people besides le commies
Parker Hall
Unironic pinochet supporters should be euthanized senpai
The economy basically didn't improve under Pinochet. I get that some of the reforms set the stage for an easier advance later on, but he and his economists caused 2 collapses and accomplished basically nothing
Not exactly better, but uruguay is pretty close. And they have been under a center-left government for years
James Miller
Based Allende, was killed by order of the United Jews of America
Logan Ortiz

Basically every successful country in the world is a social democracy. Meanwhile, Mexico is a modern conservative haven with incredibly low taxes, small government and no zoning laws. Yet it hasn't grown at the rate needed to become properly developed in the past 30 years despite the massive benefit of being America's manufacturer.
Jack Evans
Other way around
Kevin Bailey
Don't forget, Pinochet also killed the train and the Bidet.
Joseph White
I meant that Chile was a social-democracy
Mason Martinez
Ok then you're correct.
Elijah Gutierrez
Because for development you need rule of law which Mexico hasn't been able to provide
Ayden Nguyen
This is also true
Joseph Scott
>only violated pretty much every human right only the west has human rights lets be honest
Hunter Baker
Corruption alone is not as harmful as certain commie policies are
>most right wingers don't like him (mostly due stealing money) "we can forgive murderers, but we can't ever forgive thieves" i heard that on an interview
Jace Gonzalez
yeah, thanks to AYLWIN voting for the chilean center was the best thing ever to happen to Chile (still lot of inequity however, but at least the cash is being used to fight off earthquake damage)
i heard pinochet respected our dictator park chung-hee a lot. i do not know if pinochet's specter still lives in chile. south korea has almost erased the specter of park chung-hee.
Jose Adams
take a good guess. pic related as clue then guess why drops drastically in 1981. use this as reference
I'm a typical American that doesn't know much outside of America. Who's this goy, and why is he such a meme?
Luis Foster
The economy was on a downturn before he came into power and was improving when he was removed
Nicholas Russell
>why is he such a meme? gamers and shit they worship death because """"we live in a society"""" etc
Camden Powell
Reminder to silly north American that Euro social Partie are by a vast majority not socilaist. We know communism and dont need that misunderstanding.
Carter Martin
>mi general still making lefties absolutely SEETHE based pinochet
Samuel Gutierrez
He's a meme amongst the American alt-right because he threw commies off of helicopters and because Chile being the best country in LATAM, obviously got there because of dead commies. That's of course not taking into account that Argie commies too got thrown off helicopters but you don't see them talking about based Videla
Didn't pinochet just murder everybody who he didn't like and call the communist after the fact? He even purged his supporters.
Christian Price
probably Stroessner certainly did then again, didn't that post days ago about gulags showed the same thing? all dictatorships are shit
Angel Jones
He used planes iirc
Nathan Adams
That's literally every dictatorship. You kill first and ask later
Brandon Gonzalez
can't recall the details, only that he threw them to the sea oh the envy here soldiers had to dig graves because no river was deep enough to throw the bodies in
>How will rightwingers ever recover As if violations of human rights keep them up at night
Cooper Smith
Are you implying gommies dont due the same? All extremes suck but at least the right has a better track record of not destroying economies and having to keep people from leaving.
Bentley Cox
Looks a lot better than say Venezuela now or Castro's Cuba.
Hudson Anderson
People fled from SK to NK when it was under the far right
Kevin Taylor
lots of chileans flocked from Chile to Norway and Sweden in the 70s everything else is correct..ish
Josiah Perez
You didn't disprove what he was saying about our only concern was communist influence.
Jason Johnson
>he threw commies off of helicopters That's not true his squad that killed people in prisons used helicopters for transport though.
John Torres
It seems it was helicopters but most being thrown into the sea were already dead.
>Flights were also used to make bodies of already killed dissidents disappear. A testimony describes the following procedure: Corpses were put in gunny sacks, the sacks were attached to a piece of rail using wire, and a second gunny sack was put around both. The sacks were carried on a pickup truck to the helicopters that flew towards the open sea off the coast of the Valparaíso Region,[15] where the bodies were thrown into the ocean. Osvaldo Romo confessed in a 1995 interview to have participated in death flights. Showing no remorse, he added, "Now, would it not be better throwing bodies into a volcano?"[16]
Honestly not sure why you just wouldn't incinerate them.
Jeremiah Young
I meant they didn't put up a fence and shoot if you tried to cross the border to another country.
Asher Nguyen
desu anyone killing communists cannot be a bad guy. Then again chile could burn to the ground for all i care.
Samuel Sanchez
ah that yeah they did not also right wing dictatorships receive lots of immigrants, left wing ones have to filter them into "totally a spy conspiring to overthrow the system" and "loyal to the cause"
>not sure why you just wouldn't incinerate them because it's not that easy to turn a human to ashes. cultures that do cremation have their methods that if you're not familiarized with then you end up with charred remains you'd have to put in a hole anyway. sooo
excuse me, which one was the country that participated uninvited in 10 wars on the last century alone?
Tyler Anderson
Videla's troops also did all sorts of other horrific things like sexual torture and castration.
Gabriel Hughes
Some people fled Chile to East Germany in the 70s.
Nicholas Morales
>All thanks to the socialist governments that we got after Pinoshit
Chile didn’t have a single socialist president after Pinochet until 2010. All the guys after him were neoliberalists, and Chile to this day remains in stark contrast to its neighbors the freest and most open economy in South America by a fair margin, so I don’t know what the hell youre talking about.
