He didn't reconciliate. He was overthrown by CIA with the help of anglophone countries. Why people are changing the narrative? He was a true Marxist leninist and applied Marxism in Chile in its national conditions. He will be remembered as a fighter and a great communist.
He literally appointed Pinochet to a position of power in hope that he would stave off right wing attacks. He didn't aggressively go after right wingers because he was part of a larger coalition. Some will say he also didn't arm the masses and work more with the MIR to remake the Chilean state faster in the Leninist sense. It was a damn difficult position to be in. I of course still respect the heck out of Allende.
Small correction, he was indeed a Marxist but he was a member of the more moderate Socialist Party, not the Communist Party.
Hey now the CIA most likely doesn’t like what your saying. Be careful or you could have a car accident or heart attack or some other bs excuse for why people die.

But what if buying off the command, and killing the president, didn't do anything, because we made both of these effectively redundant in the first place?
