It's a goddamn shame. Still not regretting voting for them though, considering the alternative was an alt right religious zealot (who has been pretty much handed the next election in a silver platter by these clowns).

Still a shame. It's gonna take a hell of a long time to gain back trust, meanwhile it's either back to the "traditional" left that's already in the pockets of the wealthy, or the alt right.

What happened? I did a little bit of digging and found a single interview that roughly summarizes the situation as all the right-wing parties decided to work together, the left parties collapsed under infighting, and the party in power wrote an incoherent Constitution that was so long and so sloppy that it would have been a disaster if it was actually approved.

Sounds about right. The left is always prone to infighting and the right are always willing to set aside their differences if it involves fucking over people. They'll start killing each other right after they kill the leftists.

Oof so much more has happened since then.

We got a new process to change Pinochet's constitution, with a smaller council and more steps. First step was that non-democratically designed "experts" would write a draft of the new constitution. Interestingly enough that draft isn't half bad (it's where we currently are at).Then the new elected council would review and change it. But, plot twist, Chilean's fucking Republican party (which is relatively new and had it's first significant victory just a year earlier by going to second round on presidential elections, massively outpeforming the traditional right) got 23 out of the 50 seats in the council.

So now we get to pick between Pinochet's constitution or 2023 Chilean Republican's constitution.

There's also a fucking bunch of blunders the government has had in this period, including pardoning literal criminals and saying "oops", as well as corruption, from the young pristine generation that was all about ending corruption.

Pretty much.

I refuse to exculpate this government from all the incompetence and corruption that will lead to this, though.

So out of curiosity, is the process just long delayed, or did the party that started this process just assume that they would remain in power over the full duration of the process so that the constitution would be exactly what they wanted? Seems like kind of a rookie mistake to start to rewrite your Constitution knowing that there is an election standing between you and the party that would inevitably get to finish the process.

Interestingly enough, the right wing party that was in power when this whole thing started and the streets were on fire, actually tried to solve the issue with democracy, beyond their own government that they knew wouldn't stay in power.

They did do everything in their power for the first proposal to be rejected, which it was.

What's "weird" about it? I live in Chile. Is that "weird" to you?

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]


Oh look the clown car with all the clowns has shown up calling me a "right wing shill" when I've made it abundantly clear that I lean left. But far left dreamers will always deflect facts and demands for actual solutions with fake outrage and "far right!" screeches.

But no yeah show us I'm wrong by all means do your own research and show Boric's government (for which I voted) isn't in shambles. Try to look up facts for once.

Campaign promises, there were 12 IIRC "protestors" still behind bars for violent incidents, arson, etc. I think 3 or 4 of those 12 had prior records and his own staff said "well if the president had known that he wouldn't have released those guys!".

@ImAMarvel and @DuranOfForcena really clowning it up.

Duran any progress on your research in which Boric's government is doing splendid and I'm just a Right Wing shill that also doesn't live in Chile? Because it's almost lunch time and I always listen to Bio Bio at this hour, they have been talking about the Fundaciones scandal non stop for the last 3 days and they probably will continue to do so.

I literally learned about the politics of Chile being progressive from a TV show.

https://m.imdb.com/title/tt22826982/

I would never have even knew about their revolution if it wasn't for this show. I'm ignorant about South America overall but I want to learn more.

I've never denied I've had smaller accounts banned either... there was nothing "convenient" about it since the point I was making is "been here since 2004" because CE has a weird obsession with gamefaqs karma.

And no, it wasn't banned, it was closed by my request.

What are you even trying to do here buddy?
