WORLD'S #2 MONTEAGUDO FAN

I ACTUALLY DONT KNOW HOW TO TALK TO HIM 🙁🙁🙁 IM SO AWKWARD AT THIS

no u need to become immortal

On the topic of Monteagudo, while researching for a minimally accurate portrait of him, I stumbled across an article that said something along the lines of: “Bernardo Monteagudo: the controversial prócer” and I just. You know the próceres (the ones that fought the wars, not the ideological próceres okay) killed people, right? You know they had political power, right? You know they took part in a war that even to this day polarises both American and Spanish academician’s, right? OF COURSE THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO WILL CONSIDER THEM CONTROVERSIAL. Just like there are people who consider San Martín controversial, or Bolívar, or O’Higgins, or Miranda, or or or. The list is infinite. Someone tell people that historical figures, by the virtue of being humans in a very complicated set of situations in the days of yore, are going to make decisions that may seen to our 21ST century sensibilities controversial, to say the least.
