Salazar describes the 2011-2012 Chilean student conflict as being the continuation of a long strife between popular citizen movements and civic and military dictatorships.[2] In October 2011, Salazar led a campaign aiming to hold a citizen's plebiscite on the demands behind the 2011-2012 Chilean student protests.[3]

On June 2012 Salazar sparked a controversy by stating that student leader Camila Vallejo should quit the Communist Party of Chile if she was intelligent enough.[4][5]
