Remarkably easy - here's how:

First, build a city as usual. Make sure you build a Mausoleum and buy the Booby Traps upgrade. Then, you'll want to destroy all sources of fun, such as restaurants; all needs facilities, like churches, clinics, farms, etc.; and select every controversial edict, like Prohibition and Nuclear Testing, but especially Conscription and Inquisition. Fire all of your soldiers and block the job slots.

At this point, your happiness % should be going down like crazy and a steady stream of rebels should be appearing. Once you get to about 20 or so rebels, issue the Lure the Rebels edict. They'll attack the mausoleum and fight El Presidente, but 10 or so should survive. Once they blow up the Mausoleum, it will explode and take out all of the nearby rebels (and occasionally a civilian). The achievement should pop around the time of the explosion if enough rebels are killed.
