    Pinochet, the dictator who assassinated the elected president and violently took over Chile with US assistance was removed from power by a vote. For years his political opponents had even been sent to concentration camps that are still around to this day.

      Then this election in America is not a big deal and it won’t matter if we vote third party. Right?

      Forgot to mention that the coup was on Spetemer 11, 1973. Pinochet had been in power for about 15 years by the time the vote happened.

      In order to help get the youth to vote No and end Pinochet’s reign, the campaign created a pop song.

        Great. You proved me wrong. Now I don’t have to worry about fascism in America now. Thanks.
