Why do Latin American leftists invoke Simon Bolivar when he was a pro-American liberal and a Freemason? He would have hated socialism and not hesitated to have them all executed.>“hurr durr he was a proto-socialist”If classical liberalism is proto-socialism, then by that logic all of the American founding fathers were also proto-socialists.
>>18292242>Freemason? He would have hated socialismHeheh.
>>18292242Because they’re retarded cucks
>>18292242Bolivar is the most respected figure in a good part of South America, every politician knows this, it is not about ideology but pragmatism.
>>18292242>Why do Latin American leftists invoke Simon BolivarNobody does this except the Venezuelan government, nobody else gives that much of a shit about Bolivar.As for the reason, it's because Hugo Chavez was originally a nationalist right-wing chud and only switched to socialism/communism when he fled to Cuba following his failed coup.
>>18292256Fyi Stalin purged freemasons
>>18292277in fact every Bolshevik has purged Freemasons, including North Koreans.Bolshevism and Freemasonry are rival gangs fighting for the turf. Bolshevism is more tolerable as at least they dont do retarded magic rituals when they are alone.
Marx said that despite the pretenses Bolivar was just a thief and a brigand. Criminal leftist like Chaves see themselves in the man, with the same sort of Robbin Hood or Freedom Fighter TM LARP.
>>18292285A third-world leftism is basically a W Larps.I remember when the supporters of the Free Peru Communist Party wore Spartan armor and rallied in the streets.In the First World, the right wing is larp; in the Third World, leftism is larp.
Bolivar was anti american retard
>>18292242For the same reasons that Cuban communists like to invoke Jose Marti, to try to give their group legitimacy and make them appear as successors. Few people fall for it nowadays though.
