Bill Cosby raised literacy rates among millions of children over decades. Why do I say this? Because you can be a horrible piece of shit and at the same time make the world a better place. We should be careful to separate who Chavez was from what he accomplished.

Going out of your way to seem so unassailable in your character to cast doubt on your victims credibility is basically abuser 101. I don't know if they all read a certain flowchart or something, or that just happens by itself with their twisted personality, but it's fascinating in a way.
Chavez, at least, died in 1993 so can't be held accountable.
