All that Communist equality of poverty and misery, just the ticket."

Communism and Fascist Dictatorship are indistinguishable from each other, secret police, ‘disappearances’ etc. etc."
You didn't mention supporting Pinochet, just as I never said you did. But just to note, you never mentioned the fascist dictatorships either. I'm really at a bit of a loss where you think anyone that is left of centre is a communist sympathiser. You yourself would describe your politics as right of centre, are you a fascist sympathiser? Being left of centre doesn't make you a supporter of communism, it makes you a supporter of common decency.
One of Exgaffer’s many double standards. He’ll lump together and caricature everyone left of centre and then reacts with outrage when he thinks someone is trying to do the same for those on the right.
