What does /his/ think of Simón Bolívar?

a true revolutionary, based and respected by all latinos
t. peruvian

Nothing, since /pol/ amd leftypol moved, since they know nothing about anything east of the Caucasus (except for Japan) and south of Spain.

Literally all anyone says about him is that "He liberated South America" and "He's le Latino George Washington"
And that's l i t e r a l l y all

race traitor

t. Gabriel Garcia Marquez

>>2088005
Pretty big deal doe.

>>2087777
Simon Bolivar is basically what would happen if you had a Europa Universalis/Victoria II player lead an actual revolution/country.

Artificial countries, artificial country blobs errywhere.

>>2087777
He """""liberated""""" South America

He ruined any chance of South America joined the 1st world

Eternal anglo's puppet.

Legit good strategist though

Great military commander, he fucking won a continental war with a makeshift army that was a real clusterfuck: from haitians and liberated slaves to british volunteers and criollos from all parts of south america.
As a politician he didn´t had a clue of what to do

>>2088348
Explain. I'm interested.

>>2088027
As he faced the firing squad indeed.

>>2087777
Not a good fella t b h, everyone should have stayed loyal to the Spanish crown no matter what.

>Legit good strategist though
Explain, please.

San Martín, Artigas and Santander were much better.

great man, too early for his time. Latin America still needed to get their shit together before independence.

>>2087777
A man with an inhuman attachment to latin independence failed 3 ish times and lost all his money but still kept at it.

Want until he needed Hatian support that he actually started supporting people other than the creolo

Not him, but besides being overly committed to the idea of a Gran Colombian republic, Bolivar wavered too much on the issue of mestizos. He knew he needed their support for a Revolution and to try to keep the continent unified, but he also thought (like most criollos) that they were subhuman. He had a similar problem with Indians. His weakness here and his inability to prevent the ultimate fracturing of Gran Colombia led to the caudillo period.
