Regarding the different responsible actors in dictatorships

Repressors from the dictatorship swept away the identity of their victims, they dehumanized them, they turned them into objects before their eyes to facilitate doing what they did. They were not mad nor sadistic people randomly killing people; it was an organized system for disposing of political militants and, at the same time, spreading generalized terror on the population. It was a system that needed those disappearances to impose an economic plan. Thinking about people as gears of such machine does not exclude guilt; each one is responsible for the acts he committed. The responsibility of murderers, kidnappers, and torturers is evident. But focusing on every necessary participant places each one where it stands: the entrepreneurs that benefited, the judges that consented, the appropriators who stole babies and the priests that blessed them all.

Regarding the greediness of the more affluent

There are between 21 and 32 trillion dollars of wealth deposit in tax heavens (hideouts). 40% of those are multimillion individual fortunes and 60% belong to international enterprises that do not pay taxes. If those taxes could be collected, it would be possible to end extreme poverty of the world not one but two times.

Regarding love that cannot find support

The love that cannot find the support of the encounter and the embrace slowly dilutes until it disappears in a land of shadows.
