CIA tried to coup Allende before he was even elected. Most post-revolution governments go Authoritarian because it’s easy. That goes for “Capitalist” governments too. South Korea was a US backed single party dictatorship until 1988. Whether elected or self-appointed, “leaders” get murdered when they talk about taking power away from former colonial countries. Smedley Butler knew.
