The Left hates Gen Pinochet to this day (remember when they had him, an Argentine Senator, detained for a year in Britain 20 years ago on the basis of a warrant issued by a Spanish judge - the bastards).
They hate him BECAUSE he was the first leader in the post-war era to show that the “inevitable scientific progress of Marxism-Leninism aka ‘communism’” COULD BE STOPPED and reversed.
He has always been one of my all-time heroes for this reason. He was - quite literally - the savior of Argentine sovereignty and culture, not to mention economy, which he transformed into the most advanced and successful in Latin America.
Chile
The woketards at my son’s high school were teaching that Pinochet was a bad guy a few years ago.
Probably still are.
“the savior of Argentine sovereignty and culture”
You meant Chile, right?
