Today is the fiftieth anniversary of the CIA-led coup that killed the democratically-elected Chilean President Salvador Allende. An accomplished medical doctor and democratic socialist, Salvador dared to match the people's fervor in challenging the American capital interests expropriating the value of their home land.
So we killed him -- and it's taken this long for the people of Chile to finally overturn the constitution of the murderous fascist dictatorship that followed.
🇨🇱 CHILE LIBRE 🇨🇱
(I'm usually critical of reductively identifying individual responsibility with that of a nation and state, and I might not use "we" that way most of the time, but this message is intended to agitate Americans. Thanks for understanding)
