If you're feeling suicidal and have access to a machine gun then please get help. We don't need a second Allende.

No I'm just waiting for senior diplomats around the world to recognize me, I dont want there to be fighting. I live in the US and never been to Chile or anything. Don't have a gun or anything like that. It's just that the Chilean constitution says that I'm officially president of Chile so what can ya do.

I'm amazed there has been no pieces weeping about the Pro-Pinochet and Pro-Austerity newspaper building being set on fire.

I am always of two minds about stuff like that, because on the one hand, property destruction against the powerful is fine. But on the other hand, as someone who works overnight shift, I often wonder if any random front desk clerks, cleaning staff, etc. got caught inside and then I feel sad.

Yeah, there's always someone willing to write "By telling off this underling at "We literally murder gay Ugandans" Food Shack, you're alienating the working class!!1" on various levels of earnestness. You have a building that possibly has janitors and non writing or profiting staff there on fire and there's no one spinning bowties about this?

Destruction of good buildings and equipment is a more final theft than the inequitable distribution of revenues by the current capitalist masters. Destruction can serve as a symbol and inspiration, though. A land of contrasts.

apparently the protestors are attacking vote counting centers and burning ballot boxes?

i guess not sending election observers didn’t work so they’re just destroying voters now.

Never quacked for this

That was 5 years ago, the govt had already shut the place down, the legal entity had been dissolved and the students had already taken over the building (so literally anyone could've found the papers).

Dude just made a pretentious art show out of it. Burning one student's papers a night over a period of months, like wtf.

Ideas are more powerful than guns. We would not let our enemies have guns, why should we let them have ideas?

Washington Post already framing the Bolivian election as stolen by mostly quoting the oas and Washington think tanks https://www.washingtonpost.com/worl...2dbb_story.html

This looks more like they're stacking up living bodies. There's one guy resisting being dragged into the pile and another one is marched over and just lays down. I guess this is how they round people up in one place when they don't have zip ties or something? I don't doubt that they're disappearing, torturing, and murdering people, but that's not a stack of dead bodies in this video.
