Redpill me on Simon Bolivar

Freed Incas from opression. Not "peanut butta an jelly sanwhiches be raycis' an sheeee" opression. Actual forced servitude, slavery and genocide backed by chains and guns.

Besides me being here... wanted a South American union. I hope it happens.

No seriously in what way was Bolivar a petty tyrant? He barely even governed and fancied himself a military commander, not a president.

>Literally named Dictator of Peru
>Expelled his opposition, among them Francisco Xavier de Luna Pizarro and Mariano Necochea
>Jailed Admiral Martín George Guisse, brothers Ignacio and Francisco-Javier Mariátegui, executed Torre Tagle and Juan de Berindoaga. Also suspected of ordering the assasination of Bernardo Monteagudo
>Tried to meddle with the judiciary
>Repression against the population in general
>So hated by the end of his Peruvian rule that he suffered several assasination attempts
