Che Guevara: Remembering the Legend on the 40th Anniversary of His Death

Tomorrow, Oct 2007, marks 40 years since the martyrdom of Che Guevara.
It is only right that we honor this eternal legend and inspiration, whose life and work continue to define the righteous struggle for justice, equality, and the rights of all the oppressed under the sun.
His legacy doesn't just endure; it continues to spark the fire in anyone possessing a shred of common sense and the courage to think for themselves (though, naturally, the mindless sheep and zombies are excluded from that group).

That hollow, ideologically blinded, hypocritical, and arrogant wing of Western propaganda—outlets like the BBC—tries with everything they have to erase the memory of such a giant. But let’s be real: you can't move a mountain.

May he rest in glory, and may we remain grateful for his actions, which have inspired generations past and will undoubtedly inspire many more to come.

Viva camarade!

Man, Che was a straight-up legend.

I mean, think about it. You win a guerrilla revolution, write the literal playbook on how to fight guerrilla wars, then head off to Bolivia to test those theories in the field, only to get taken out almost immediately. It’s wild.

Though... maybe he just made one tiny little mistake. 🤔

Che, basically a fashion icon and a criminal all rolled into one 🙏

just the ultimate idol for those edgy teenagers who are already bored to death of Britney

👍 I have to agree with this.

Where is that link about him and the T-shirts? It was posted maybe two months ago or so.

The man was a criminal through and through!

A criminal? Oh, absolutely. He was a serious criminal—he wiped out the main income stream for those poor little mobsters over in Cuba. They actually had to pack up and move to Las Vegas together after that, which I hear hit them pretty hard.

Man, Che is an absolute legend!! Look, even if you don't buy into his whole revolutionary philosophy, you have to respect one thing: the guy stayed true to himself and his vision. Instead of just sticking around in Cuba sipping whiskey, smoking cigars, and living the high life in some bourgeois villa like Castro or those local "revolutionaries" we see around here, he actually saw things through to the end.

It looks like all that relaxing, drinking, and smoking caught up to him though—put on a little weight and trashed his lungs, so he couldn't move quite as fast through the Amazon as he did back in Cuba. Hey, what can you do? Just a classic revolutionary mistake... I hear Marshall had a tendency toward that kind of stuff too. 😵

From what I gather, Marshall was mostly just into the high life—partying with endless crowds, hunting big game, knocking back gallons of whiskey, and all those other "revolutionary" pursuits.
I highly doubt getting his suit dirty out in the Amazon would have been considered "revolutionary" enough for him!!!

But hey, like I said... there's only one Che!

Setting up concentration camps, carrying out executions...
And people still defend these so-called "leftist heroes" of ours.

Well obviously, he wasn't stupid—that's exactly why he lived to be 88. 👍

But like I said... there's only one Che Guevara!

That was his biggest issue right there. If there had been more of them—say, a couple million—they actually could have built something. 😬

I mean, he really mastered the craft, right? He's basically just a perfect imitation of an American. 👍

Fidel Castro sent him out to spark revolutions all over the globe, while he was back in Cuba just playing games... he got played beautifully. It was a genius way to eliminate his biggest rival, and from what I can see, he moved past him even faster than expected!

Che Guevara was nothing more than a loser, and even today, his legacy mostly appeals to losers and people who just can't fit into society.

After the Cuban Revolution, he failed at every single endeavor he ever touched. He was tasked with fixing up the industry in Cuba, but he couldn't do anything about their crushing dependence on sugar. Then, when he was sent out to spread the revolution, he failed everywhere he went. Honestly, I guess his biggest "achievement" was dragging the Russians into Africa, which—alongside the war in Afghanistan—basically pushed an already overstretched Soviet Union toward financial ruin and eventual collapse. Even before the revolution, he was just a brutal killer; he actually enjoyed the executions. Those are the kinds of details that are finally starting to peek out from under that highly polished, manufactured image of this villain. And if you're wondering why the image of Che Guevara exists at all, blame that whole group of French criminals, especially that depressing misanthrope Jean-Paul Sartre. To Sartre, Che was "the most complete man he had ever met," which makes sense, I suppose—it’s perfectly logical that a spark in the eyes of a misanthrope would serve its purpose completely.

The legend goes that Che Guevara ended up killing more of his own people than he ever did his enemies.

Che Guevara was just some loser who got taken out by local sheriffs in Bolivia...

I agree. He even made his way over to America to check on how the global revolution was coming along.

What does Che Guevara mean to you? Or what was that clueless, headless loser you all worship calling him? -> A pack of small-timers—an unreachable ideal in every single way.
Unlike you lot, who are barely worth remembering, he remained an absolute enigma to his enemies and opponents alike. You couldn't bribe him, blackmail him, or win him over. There simply isn't a bag of money large enough to buy him, even if you emptied out every last cent from those Judas pockets they call wealth!!!!
You people sell yourselves out while those small-timers are bought for less than what fits between two fingers... for a few measly cents!

They couldn't even kill him properly; they just wasted a few bullets on him like they were checking a box, yet year after year, he only grows more influential!!
In Villagrand, the peasants have been preparing meals for him for years, practically praying to him like he's some kind of saint. It’s almost ironic how all of Latin America "hates" him while simultaneously "adoring" the greedy vultures north of the Rio Grande.

So, you losers and sellouts, just shut your mouths and get on your knees whenever you mention Che Guevara!

In the end, he got exactly what was coming to him...
