Pinochet is Chile. I don't remember who the Brazilian dictator was.
Getúlio Vargas? Idk about Chile, but at least in Brazil, in most places, Getúlio is considered a national hero
I think they meant the later dictatorship spawned from the 1964 coup, the US-backed one.
Oh, the Regime Militar, oh yeah, that happened, but US didn't really "intervene", the dictators were really just american friendly most of the time
We didn't end up intervening, but we were definitely in full support of their efforts. I guess this is really all semantics in the end.
