Oh he is. There was a US-backed dictatorship in the 70's that killed 30.000 people, he's actively downplaying it as just a "conflict between two sides", using the exact same words as the military did in those days. Also what he's saying isn't new, it's repeating things from the '90s that already had us in crippling debt, with no political institutions and lots of police brutality. He's only doing so good because the main political parties are having a major internal leadership crisis. We managed to save ourselves in the early 2000's, we may not get that lucky again.

Yo soy chileno 🇨🇱, así que entiendo bien el tema de la dictadura. 🙁

Pero si tuviese que elegir entre Javier Milei y José Antonio Kast (su actual equivalente chileno, el cuál literalmente es un Neo-Nazi), definitivamente elijo a Milei.

Son lo mismo. Cada uno usa discursos ligeramente distintos dependiendo de la zona (entiendo que en chile la opinión pública de la dictadura es muy distinta a la de acá), pero están bancados por la misma gente y traen el mismo plan económico de subordinación. Son los cóndores que volvieron.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
