Simon Bolivar is like the founding father of Venezuela, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia and Panama, their George Washington figure who won independence from Spain. Chavez’s democratic political revolution in Venezuela claims to be the true heir of Bolivar’s legacy.

If there has been one bougie nationalist who deserves to be called “good”, it is probably Bolivar.

I guess then now I have a face to the name lol

Knowing that makes them taking down his painting for some print of Guaido even worse, yikes.

Worth noting he’s the namesake of Bolivia, and ruled Gran Colombia which became Venezuela, Ecuador, Colombia, and Panama, and why those first three have similar flags 🇻🇪 🇪🇨 🇨🇴
