Shortly before being overthrown he said that he was "the meat of statues" LOL

There never was a contradiction between socialism and democracy. The election of Allende demonstrated that a Socialist government can be elected within a largely undemocratic Bourgoise political system.

Allende misinterpreted his presidential victory. He won by a little more than a third of the vote. What Allende should have done is slowly establish socialism and try to convince the population that his socialist policies was the future of chile.

Very interesting ! And so nice that you mentioned him and his project. There was a wonderful DLF documentary (german radio) about it recently. Sometimes it takes half a century until the truth finally comes to light. It is indeed terrible how the project was so brutally killed off, although it actually worked quite well! And if "THEY" don't want something, then it will be destroyed with violence, weapons and bombs if necessary. By the way, Stafford came across as a great human being in the documentary, he must have been a real g r e a t guy. Just a cool Brit like that. For me personally (as a hobby economist), the programme was in fact an absolute HIGH-light of geman radio - virtually THE highlight of the year !!!!

Socialism is democracy, it just actually wants it everywhere, including the workplace so you would vote for your boss and such, that's why capitalists hate it and assassinate socialists when they are elected and tell people it's a dictatorship, there's a reason they talk about Stalin all the time and not people like Fred Hampton and Salvador Aliende

Social Democrats aren't Socialists (even though Europeans have used the terms interchangeably). Labour was heavily anti-communist and never wanted to transform society into something post-capitalist, they merely want friendlier capitalism, welfarism.

All lies 🙋🏻‍♂️

A country choosing to set off toward socialism democratically and a socialist society _remaining_ democratic are two very different things. Chile's envisioned transition to central planning didn't progress anywhere near far enough to provide any evidence to rebut the conceptual arguments for democratic socialism's practical impossibility.

@@ColtraneTaylor look at this guy's playlists. He watches PragerU, and so many other conservative pundits and grifters. It's not like he would believe the evidence he wants to see even if it existed. Chile was socialist for around 3 years, not a few weeks or months. Something which is "practically impossible" cannot last for that long. Salvador Allende genuinely believed in democracy, if anything he had way too much faith and should have been more pragmatic. Allende's democratically elected socialist government was overthrown and replaced with a genocidal, totalitarian capitalist dictatorship. There are conceptual arguments for why capitalism is incompatible with democracy, as democracy is supposed to be one person = one vote, but capitalism is one dollar = one vote (this is very simplified, of course, but conveys the point). The fact that the USA is basically a two-party corporate duopoly where lobbying (read: bribing) is such a common practice and the average person gets to choose between the socially liberal representative of the capitalist class with a blue tie or the socially conservative representative of the capitalist class with a red tie with little difference in economic and foreign policy is a testament to this fact. Capitalism always turns into something resembling this if it is not successfully resisted by labor movements.

This is projection, this is not even a socialist channel. It's sad how you cannot engage with any of the things said in this video, let alone refute any of it. All you can do is come up with this knee-jerk reaction. Sad! There's not a single account of history which is not ideological, some accounts are more accurate than others, but when you think you're above ideology you're the most consumed by it. It seems like you don't have an ideology when your ideology is the dominant ideology. The so-called "Cold War" and what happened in Chile (or/and, to Chile) was incredibly political and ideological, any documentary on it which claims to be apolitical or non ideological is simply deceiving the the audience, intentionally or otherwise.
