The popular rejection of the  social policies implemented by the regime of Sebastián Pinera in Chile has been going on for two months and people are calling for Pinera to resign.

The social outbreak began on October 18 when students mobilized to reject the increase in the price of the metro ticket and were strongly repressed by Carabineros (military police), a discontent that joined other areas.

Given the demands of the people, the government came up with a social agenda that granted only partial improvements to some civil sectors; however, the Pinera regime has failed to fulfull its promises to the people. 

According to the latest report of the National Institute of Human Rights of Chile, since December 6, 3,449 people injured were registered; about 352 with eye injuries, including 331 with trauma and 21 with burst or loss; as well as 1,983 who were shot.

Of these, 1,554 were shot by pellets, 198 from unidentified objects, 180 from pellets and 51 from bullets. Despite the complaints filed, the Pinera regime continues to repress the protests and increase human rights violations in Chile.
