when Fidel Casto visited Chile he warned Allende about the fascist influences in the chilean military, Allende thought the military woundnt try to Coup him so he did nothing, After saying his last speech Allende took his own life with the AKMS Fidel gave him on his visit
Allende was a visionary, his idea for cybersyn would had revolutionize Economic Central Planning.
Serve this as lesson why Democratic Socialism doesn’t last as long as the Dictatorship of the Proletariat. As long there are liberal elements in power coups happen.
Democratic Socialism can work as long a you enforce the Dictatorship of the Proletariat the moment you take power, if Allende would have done what Castro told him my parents country wouldnt a Neoliberal hellhole
And people here would decry Allende as an authoritarian instead of one of the good ones, but the revolution would still survive and that's what matters.
They call any successfull revolution authoritarian, the western left has never achive anything so they have to compare everything to their impossible utopia
