I was always told by the (((media))) that Pinochet was a bad guy. Same with Rafael Trujillo in Dominican Republic, who was trying to protect his borders from encroaching Haitians and preserve the relative racial purity of his people.

I knew I'd Hollywood made him out to be the bad guy then he must have been good

hollywood have always been communist, since its start. the golden age of movies ( from 1940's and 50's) didnt have much pos because by then the general public was mostly conservative but little by little and step by step the canker began to eat the leaf until it left it desolate.

many actors and actresses were either closed commies sympathizers or belonged to underground groups and secret societies. the arts have always attracted the libertine and that has been the course since men appeared on this earth.

hollywood should have always be relegated to the realm of make believe and fantasy because that's what their trade. people fork some of their money for at least couple of hours of escapism from their frivolous lives

Yea, and Pinochet arrested and executed members of the Countries Banking elite iirc, and instituted sweeping bank reforms written into the Chilean constitution that still to this day afaik, remain largely unchanged.
There was a really good documentary somewhere on jootube that went into it in great detail, and how and why it worked, even during major global recessions.

Its not just largely unchanged. The commie in charge of Chile tried multiple times to wreck his country and push for a new constitution. It has failed all times because (((they))) unlearned the art of subtle incremental changes; only the lunatics and the unhinged are left, and those without a spine are the only ones today who comply.

Check out, ‘El Conde’, if you’re into fucked up movies. Pinochet is a 300 year old vampire. He puts on his old kickass uniform and flies around feeding on communists.

Sounds fucking cool, thanks for the suggestion PA.

After reading "The Devil and Communist China" by Stephen Mosher, I wholeheartedly believe that anyone sympathizing with Socialism or Communism should be hanged.

((( Communism ))) should be burned down to the roots, and then burned some more.

I always liked that his military looked like a slightly less sharply dressed Ss in Wehrmacht field grey.

Kinda funny you say that because Pinochet is well known for bringing arch-capitalist Jew Milton Friedman's 'Chicago Boys' in to 'fix' the Chilean economy and he was probably put in power due to the machinations of Henry Kissinger.

These Cold War shenanigans are far less one-way seeming than they used to be. America was never the 'good guys' so reflexively taking the anti-Communist position seems trivial. Even Ron Paul thinks the Cold War was a mistake, a sham.

Coach Redpill, a Chilean, offering a Pinochet defense.

When I find the video from the English socialist demsoc1 that dismantles his take I'll post it.

In the meantime, might I suggest an actual book on the subject?
