Surely someone who majored in South American history can acknowledge that the replacement of the wacked-out Allende regime was an all-Chilean affair. It's well documented in history. There was no US involvement, as anyone who isn't a devout blame-America-first communist can tell you, and no doubt should.

How they fucked it up after that wasn't an American affair either, but the result of generals not having very much experience of democratic give and take and trying to run a country like an army -- then trying even harder when they found it wasn't working. The kindest thing you can say about that is that it's unfortunate, however understandable.

And you have the cart before the horse: communism is not defined as "disagrees with Urbane Guerrilla." It's simply that communists do disagree with the libertarian ideals I espouse. You're spinning, girl, and it's as obvious as Olga Korbut out on the ice.
