According to D&D the solution to economic and political problem in every country is to just go more leftwards

The less they know about the issue the more true this is

Well maybe we should try a more rightward approach.

Maybe a program for economic development.

This is seriously like the left-wing version of a tea party rally.

Everything left of Reagan/right of Allende is Communism/Fascism respectively.

You're in a thread where an open Pinochet fan is whining about worker protections in a country that had a violent US-backed conservative economic revolution.

And you're complaining about leftism in it.

But this discussion isn't even about the legacy of Pinochet, however terrible it was. There are plenty of threads in D&D where we talk about how terrible he was.

It seems like OP proposed some right wing policy and since it is Chile it automatically set off the rage factor, and everyone decided to just call the OP a Pinochist and call it a day. If you think the policies he's outlining are bad (and some of it seems to be) or unreasonable or you have a better solution, you should post it. But right wing+Chile=Pinochet is just lazy debating.

The OP is being called a Pinochist because we've argued with him before, and we know he is.

Several people in the thread have argued the policies he is complaining about aren't bad.

Complaining about the hivemind and then saying other people are being lazy in a debate is just hilarious.

That sounds like a good way to run an economy and a generally desirable situation all in all. Shows those idiots who think the labor laws may have problems

It only takes a few factories burning to the ground with employees inside before people learn.
