re: #258 researchok

I have the highest regard for the economist on the whole and
I generally agree with their content - but that’s a “leader” piece, and i disagree with their assertion that the USA had nothing to do with Pinochet after the coup.

Also worth pointing out the economist is a center right publication - and almost universally opinions on the issue of Chile - as facts are often murky - go with political prejudice left or right.

the argument i was engaging above was that the Pinochet takeover and subsequent support from the USA was wrongheaded - mass killings and disapearences are not *better* because they are done by a favored side.
