Seeing many people wearing his t-shirts and praising his "legacy" while ignoring what he
actually did or who he
actually was got me thinking we should enlighten the public about it.
1. He was a brutal murderer. He trained and commanded firing squads that
executed thousands of men, women and children deemed enemies by the new Castro regime. He once put a bullet in the head of a fellow guerrilla he suspected of disloyalty.
2. He
opposed freedom of speech, religion, press, assembly and protest. Can you say North Korea?
3. He mounted a campaign to have
homosexuals jailed.
4. A profligate adulterer who
deserted two wives, countless mistresses and numerous children.
5. He hoped that the Cuban missile crisis would lead to an atomic war. “What we affirm is that we must proceed along the path of liberation,” he said, “
even if this costs millions of atomic victims.”
6. Members of the Che cult claim his last words were, “I know you are here to kill me. Shoot, coward, you are only going to kill a man.” However, General Ovando, Chief of the Bolivian Armed Forces, reported that Che died in battle and that his last words were considerably less noble, “
I am Che Guevara and I have failed.”
7. Was a Communist who opposed the free Capitalist system we benefit from today.
Time to #DumpGuevara.
". This already happened in the Castro thread.
