tfg wants to be an absolute dictator -- like General Augusto Pinochet. We need to repeat this often.

Pinochet imprisoned tens of thousands, tortured and executed thousands of people who dared to speak out against his brutal regime. tfg has already made it perfectly clear that he would like to have the power to do the same, and would use that power without qualm or hesitation.

Chris Hayes was interviewing Paola Ramos about her book "Defectors", about how Latino/as are turning towards favoring authoritarian leaders. They need to be reminded that Latino/as have suffered their own history of dictators -- why would they, after all that, choose a gringo dictator-for-life ?

Maybe not all of them but I bet most of them. Somehow, education failed them.

Justice matters.
