He was voted in with 36% of the vote

yes, due to divisions in the other major parties

Paris Commune quickly fell apart

In a matter of months actually

it didn't fall apart, it was invaded

When Pinochet had a final vote on whether he should leave or stay, 44% of the population voted for him to stay.

because all the leftists got offed.

The military dictator that overthrew the "democratic socialist" government was more popular than the fucking democratic socialist

Chile is a nation with 18 million people

They would have needed to kill millions of people to have a result

Not above communists

That’s a simple price to pay

most death counts are vastly overblown and arose due to various factors beyond their control

and even if they did kill all of those people with their dirty, grubby hands

what about capitalism's death toll?

right, the governments under capitalism killed many people

That has existed for hundreds of years versus decades

I'm sure you're gonna include heart disease on the same level as being sent to a gulag and frozen to death

You call causing a famine or killing your own people because they refused to give you their cows factors they cant control

Havig tanks run over villahes for refusal to believe in the communist party

Or just killing anyone against it

How

Will they

Recover

i never said that i agreed with authoritarian measures. but when capitalism needed tweaking, we didn't throw it out, did we?

limiting the reach of the market is not the same as implementing a system as autistic as communism

The thing is Capitalism can work when changed

It is run by a market and the people

so can socialism, when the government represents the interests of the people

right

since when do fascists care about things being run by the people?

Tfw you’re a commie but don’t want a totalitarian

By it’s nature Capitalism is constantly shifting

when it benefits the national interest it can be very healthy

Thats what fascism is about ^

but it still reflects the same core values of people with the most capital obtaining more and more capital and having a stranglehold on the means of production.

capitalism, i mean.

a small business owner is not strangling the hold on the means of production

I think he’s talking about the larger companies

that i am.
