Who was a better leader
Pinochet or Castro?
>>69366825
clearly Pinochet
Are you a retard? Of course Pinochet was.
Dont compare GOD HIMSELF with that CUBAN Gypsie. Pinochet made Chile great again,and was a true patriot,while Castro took a wealthy island and transformed into a SHITHOLE.Thank you based PINOCHET for killing that pig Allende
The one that didn't wreck their economy and make their country a failed state.
That's like asking if I'd prefer banging my shin on a coffee table or getting my leg stuck in a wood chipper.
>>69367500
So Castro was the better one?
>>69367564
>Sweden
>>69367319
muh "he fixed the economy". kek
>>69367636
>implying Sweden is socialist
also really logical to compare Hong Kong, a city in a country that only has one city, with Havana, a city in a country with alot of cities.
Pinochet took a shit hole and made it the Jewel of South America.
Castro's government is still around so I'll go with him.
>>69366825
Pinochet of course.

>>69368299
Butthurt commie detected
>>69367319
Cuba was a shithole for 99.9% of people living there before Castro took over. It's by no means perfect, but it's better than other countries like nearby Haiti and such bastions against communism.
>>69368303
Elections does not equal democracy you simple cuck.
But that would be too hard for you to understand.
>>69367564
People cross shark-infested waters on home made rafts to leave Cuba. I don't recall too many Chileans being motivated to do the same.
But hey, free healthcare!

Okay Cuba is a shithole where everyone lives in poverty except government officials.
>>69368506
Chile is too far away from the U.S. for that. However, the millions fleeing Haiti, Guatemala, El Salvador, and other former strongholds against leftism far outnumber the hundreds of thousands that have fled Cuba.
I know that people like you love to spam that image, but most non-tinfoil sources point to Cuban healthcare as being nowhere near that level in most cases. Also, a reverse image search points to several propaganda sites as the probable origins of the image.

Pinochet was CIA zionist puppet that sold all our resources and industries to foreign enterprises
>>69367744
He saved Chile from dailure and degeneracy. Look at Venezuela. Thanks to this LEGEND,Chile is prosperous. Thanks based Pinochet for understanding that you need lefties blood to save your country.
>>69368976
>hundreds of thousands that have fled Cuba.
2 million Cubans and Cuban Americans in the U.S and they make up the third largest group of Hispanics behind Mexicans and Puerto Ricans in the U.S. Don't try to downplay the shit Castro did to his own country.

Even Canada doesn't lease out land or sell materials to foreign countries.
I just went to Chile this last Christmas. And I went to Cuba 3 years ago.
Without a doubt, the situation is much better in Chile. Cuba should have been much better off than Chile due to proximity with USA.
But Castro fucked his people just like Allende. You must be one of those liberal arts cucks demanding free education while voting for that cunt bachelet.
You need a helicopter ride.

I seriously don't get why does /pol/ has such a hard on for this uneducated thug.
He was basically a kike/CIA puppet who sucked the dick of every Chicago school jew he could find. He basically gave the country away for peanuts to foreigners interests for short term profit.
Yes he stopped DA EVIL COMMUNISTS >:( but if you really look at it he only killed a handfull of lefties, while torturing a bunch of innocent people and shitting up the political spectrum for generations to come.
May I add he didnt care about his military buddies once it was clear that the justice system wouldn't go after him for human rights violations. His political legacy is in shambles, no street names or public monuments for him, and supporting him in public equals political suicide.

Except Pinochet helped the middle class faggot. The most important class. Look at your country now, helping poor people giving them "bonos" that they don't use to improve their status, they waste it in stupid shit like TVs. Bachelet and later Lagos will end up fucking the country.
It's Ok to give money to the poor so they can improve, but when they use it in other shit and luxury stuff and then ask for more it is depressing.

Ask yourself: what would the jews answer?
The answer is Castro. Too many people (americans) are too obsessed with opposing the reds and regressive flag-patriotism to realize that economic policy is irrelevant. Castro fought for national sovereignty and Pinochet served a globalist agenda, therefore from a nationalist viewpoint Castro was the good guy of the two.

>>69372816
It wasnt like that before. He kicked all the whites.
I don't know but Castro was the epitome of the alpha man. If he didn't side with the commies, /pol/ would be all over his dick. What he accomplished is truly incredible.
>>69368455
>Cuba was a shithole for 99.9% of people living there before Castro took over.

>>69372978

Yeah, turning a successful country into a total shithole despite receiving billions of dollars of soviet subsidies is truly a feat.
>>69372801
Just look at current poverty rates. The graph is accuarate. It talks about PIB per capita not equality though
>>69367636
Why does /pol/ continue to use facebook tier images to prove their points?
I'm sure any fucking country would look like that when they have the total lock down embargo that Cuba had to deal with.
>>69373035
That was in 1898. At that time Argentina had surprassed Cuba. But he still managed to destroy Cuba.
>>69366825
Castro. Wins.
Pinochet "The Cuck In White"
>>69373261
Hong kong had an embargo from China too. Why dont you inform yourself ?
>>69372978
Also for the record Cuba and Chile are merely 4 places away from each other on the HDI in terms of scoring their difference is 1/3 of the difference between Norway and the Netherlands.
>>69373271
Actually by the 1950s the Peronists had already destroyed Argentina's economy.
I wonder if in fact, in the 1950s, it was not Venezuela which was the richest latin american country.
Giddings? Castro was too merciful he should have executed all the criminals that went to Florida.
>>69372952
South American nations with US-aligned governments are globalist because being US-aligned means you are controlled by the jewish-capitalist global order which seeks to annihilate all national and regional cultures in service of capital.
The Soviet bloc post-Stalin didn't have such insidious goals but merely sought to engage in simple geopolitical power plays therefore from a nationalist point of view it didn't represent much of an evil to be opposed but instead was a positive force insofar as it opposed the western order.
>>69373478
The HDI is a measure invented by a communist poo2loo economist. It has limited value.

And really that's not the point I was making. I was talking about Castro as a military figure. You cannot deny that he was incredibly successful in that regard.
>>69373478

No he wasn't, the Batista regime was crumbling, the bay of pigs a half assed attempt. Whenever he left his shitty island he got shrekt.

>>69373863
He saved his country and did his duty. He wasnt a powerhungry moron like " the jew" Castro
>>69373686
Meh. Most of the Cuban public supported him because they all hated Batista, even the wealthy ones. Of course, he only got their support by promising to restore democracy. Once he gained power he made himself dictator for life. The guy is a total faggot.
http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/americanexperience/features/general-article/comandante-pre-castro-cuba/
"Even Castro -- a dynamic national figure following his failed Moncada assault of 1953 -- spoke in those terms. "Not Communism or Marxism is our idea. Our political philosophy is representative democracy and social justice in a well-planned economy." Many wealthy Cubans welcomed Castro's rebel triumph in January 1959. "My parents, my grandparents and my uncles went out and paid their back taxes," recalls Professor Marifeli Pérez Stable, 'because finally, there was going to be an honest government in Cuba.'"
>>69373622
It so easy to shitpost. I guess that if Finland lost the winter war,and Stalin webt full berserker on Finns,Finnish genocide would be justified
>>69373808
It doesn't matter what the theory was or even what people thought they were supporting but what the actual effects were.
The USSR retained their original marxist doctrine theoretically but after a while it really became just symbols. Stalin transformed the country into practically a Russian nationalist state.
Similarily, Castro was at heart a fierce Cuban patriot. He adopted marxism-leninism and purported to believe in it's tenets but really it was just a means to advance to cause of sovereignety and oppose the US in a Cold war world.

>>69374391
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finlandization
>Finlandization (Finnish: suomettuminen; Swedish: finlandisering; German: Finnlandisierung) is the process by which one powerful country strongly influences the policies of a smaller neighboring country, while allowing it to keep its independence and its own political system. The term literally means "to become like Finland" referring to the influence of the Soviet Union on Finland's policies during the Cold War (And the influence of the United States on Mexico's policies as counterpart).
>The term is generally considered pejorative, originating in West German political debate of the late 1960s and 1970s. As the term was used in Germany and other NATO countries, it referred to the decision of a country not to challenge a more powerful neighbour in foreign politics, while maintaining national sovereignty. It is commonly used in reference to Finland's policies in relation to the Soviet Union during the Cold War, but it can refer more generally to similar international relations, such as Denmark's attitude toward Germany between 1871 and 1940, or the policies of the Swiss government towards the German Nazi regime immediately before World War II.

>No he wasn't, the Batista regime was crumbling, the bay of pigs a half assed attempt. Whenever he left his shitty island he got shrekt.
Oh fuck off already. He organized a militia without any help from any of the major powers, invaded a US sponsored warlord's territory, fought him, won, and kept the US at bay for more than half a century all while living a mere few miles of the coast of Florida.
Trying to be objective with you people is a waste of time. All you are interested in is circlejerking.

>and kept the US at bay for more than half a century all while living a mere few miles of the coast of Florida.
He didn't do shit, big brother USSR did the heavy lifting.
The reason why Castro wasn't crushed like the maggot he was is because Kennedy the cuck agreed to let him stay in exchange for the USSR withdrawing their missiles during the Cuban missile crisis.
The idea that Castro possesses an army capable of resisting the american military for "half a century" is hilarious.
>I'm done.

Pinochet cut poverty from 50% to 13%. I guess that he wasnt that big of a retard wasnt he?
This
It's funny Castro is mentioned, since he basically disapproved of Allende's tactics for being too democratic. I'm a huge Allende apologist in the sense that he was buttfucked by both sides as declaring his rule as socialist alienated the capitalist powers to the point of boycotting him (IMF), but also wanting to play by democratic rules made the explicit soviet dictators not go so crazy over the fact that him succeeding would make them look bad and their tyranny unnecessary. Whatever he did the term was gonna end badly in retrospect (a sad little underdog, much like Hitler).
White nationalists here are crazy if they think the zealousness they'd guard their sovereignty with isn't a right for us in our own territories as well. I generally agree with a lot of foreign intervention the US does in the middle east for example, but it's all a matter of specifics anyway to begin with, you people conveniently ignore facts like how the economic miracle depended on a number of iffy and fortuitous factors anyway, and the social spending was near null. I know handouts are hated around here and rightly so, but the fact not one single hospital was built under Pinochet's 17 year rule shows more than a simple aversion to playing charity with the state, not to mention all the swiss bank account bonus he gave himself.

I thought it was about to implode? I can't keep the chink-hater story straight in my head. Meanwhile of the three others you've named only Hong Kong might qualify as a "small government with very few interventionism." Both Taiwan and Singapore exercise vigorous, albeit very different, industrial policies.

>Libertarians/=laissez-faire

I remember hearing the amazing stories from my anthropology profs about how Milton Friedman flew over Chile in a jet bought for him by Ronald Reagan, parachuted into the capital, and raged hard throughout the city, indiscriminately snapping the necks of every Chilean woman and child to cross his path of mayhem. Friedman's evil rampage prevented the nascent communist grassroots movement, which was almost as popular with the Chilean people as it was with American humanities professors, from reaching fruition. This was a tragedy of epic proportions because the command and control economy was about to usher in a new golden age of economic and sociopolitical utopia. While Friedman was finishing ripping the beating hearts out of the chests of old women and eating them as he quoted passages from Free to Choose, the Chilean people learned to never question the capitalist overlords from Chicago. Legends of the shock doctrine, the massacre of the innocents at the hands of Friedman, spread throughout Latin America to American campuses. When news of the story broke among sociology and gender studies departments there was a collective wail of morning and gnashing of teeth. The critical literary theorists had been unrelenting in their support of the burgeoning Soviet Union at the turn of the century, and they saw what wonders it had worked firsthand for the people of Russia. They felt that they had failed their Chilean brothers. Friedman eventually returned to Chicago from Chile, to return to his Hyde Park throne which was a living chair made from the bodies of welfare recipients, whom were forced to bear their weight of the Libertarian death machine day and night lest their families face the libertarian wrath that had been unleashed in Chile. Now Friedman is lionized by a coalition of Neo nazis, Jewish industrialists, and the religious right, to continue to keep our poor brothers and sisters downtrodden and controlled. Friedman can never die. He is always watching.
And waiting.
What did Pinochete do Wrong?
He is a God from what I hear....

That's not surprising, education in Latin American countries is in the hands of communists so they spin the narrative in their favour. That's why people outside Chile have a clearer and more objective view on Pinochet, and admire him accordingly.
