Socialist hero and champion of the poor who was President of Chile from 1970-73. He was the first democratically elected Marxist in human history; a friend of Fidel Castro and admirer of revolutionary Che Guevara, yet he was totally dedicated to achieving socialism through peaceful, legislative means. Eventually his nationalization policies pissed off American multinational corporations and he was killed in a coup d'etat engineered by the CIA, replaced with a blood-soaked pro-US dictator named Augusto Pinochet, whose reign of terror lasted 17 years.
Salvador Allende was a man of the people, and thus an enemy of American corporate fascism.
"Long live Chile! Long live the people! Long live the workers! These are my last words, and I am certain that my sacrifice will not be in vain, I am certain that, at the very least, it will be a moral lesson that will punish felony, cowardice, and treason." - Salvador Allende, September 11, 1973.

Get the Salvador Allende mug.The word is the short-hand of 'oku salayo', which means 'what remains is' . Regardless of all facts presented before me, I reiterate that my misinformed, obscure perspective is still valid whether you like it or not.
Ok'salayo can be followed by an insult or swear word e.g. If you and your exGirlfriend/Boyfried dated for 10 years and break up then he/she marries someone in less than 6 months, as the ex you can say “Ok’salayo batohlukana” meaning “they will break up anyway”
Ok’salayo can also be used by an individual to express how much settled they are about something e.g. “noma ngimubi Ok’salayo ukhetse mine” meaning “even though I’m ugly he/she chose me”
Even soccer fanatics like to use the word e.g. “even though our team Kaizer Chiefs stayed weeks and weeks on number 7 on the PSL log, people calling us 7deLaan (a South African Afrikaans soap opera)Ok’salayo we are the best team with good players”
