"Hugo Chaves is one of my heroes, and like many other true heroes he was assassinated."
And thus has no chance of disappointing you or destroying your worthless illusions viz. heroes.
The whole crooked highway of bullshit christendom is built of the bones and blood of humans that have been made into saints and heroes, and the result of that is exactly everything you probably hate.
When you make someone a hero a dual process occurs. In objectifying that person, you dehumanise them, and in doing so, you dehumanise yourself. Self-remembering teaches this: A hero can never be your friend just as an object can never be your friend, and vice versa. You cannot have right relationships if you have heroes.
And thus has no chance of disappointing you or destroying your worthless illusions viz. heroes.

If by that you mean he's only human with flaws who might have made some mistakes in his life, that wouldn't be a disappointment because that is how most people learn. And illusions, in general, are worthless and meant to be destroyed. If you imply that I idolize Hugo Chaves, the answer is 'no'. I see him as a great man who dedicated his life to help and make life better for others.

Who said anything about saints? It seems that you equate saints with heroes. I don't. Maybe, there is some confusion over definition and meaning of the word 'hero'? And fwy, there are four meanings, to be exact. I use this word in the meaning of "a man of distinguished courage or ability, admired for his brave deeds and noble qualities." [Link] You, as it seems, using this definition of 'hero' as "man of superhuman strength or courage," from L. heros "hero," from Gk. heros "demi-god"
You wrote: "In objectifying that person, you dehumanise them, and in doing so, you dehumanise yourself." I don't understand. As per definition provided above, a hero is a man (or a woman), not an object or an abstract concept. Again, it seems that you use this word as an abstract concept maybe?
You wrote: "You cannot have right relationships if you have heroes."
Right relationships? That's too deep for me. What do you mean by that?

Quote of the Day
I've had enough of someone else's propaganda. I'm for truth, no matter who tells it. I'm for justice, no matter who it's for or against. I'm a human being first and foremost, and as such I am for whoever and whatever benefits humanity as a whole.

Hugo Chaves is one of my heroes, and like many other true heroes he was assassinated, osit. In his 14 years of presidency, he created a real and fully working, parallel system in the society that provided food, education and health care to the people who needed it the most. His revolution was peaceful, not bloody, as most revolutions are, and that usually play into the goals and aims of the ruler class. That's why he had to go. As Michael Parenti said in the video, he was the first Venezuelan president, who really cared about people, all people, especially, about the poor. Remember how he offered help to the american people in the hour of their dire need when he gave heating aid to US poor following Obama budget cuts? _ [Link]
And that was not just one case. From the same source:
"In New York's South Bronx, Citgo has donated millions to support community building organizations, including natural food co-ops, environmentally sound recyling programs, and youth groups."
And what was the president Obama response?
"Indeed, several days before Citgo announced its 2012 assistance program, President Obama criticized Venezuela’s ties to Cuba and Iran, saying "It is up to the Venezuelan people to determine what they gain from a relationship with a country that violates universal human rights and is isolated from much of the rest of the world."
