"The cult of Ernesto Che Guevara is an episode in the moral callousness of our time. Che was a totalitarian. He achieved nothing but disaster. Many of the early leaders of the Cuban Revolution favored a democratic or democratic-socialist direction for the new Cuba. But Che was a mainstay of the hardline pro-Soviet faction, and his faction won. Che presided over the Cuban Revolution's first firing squads. He founded Cuba's "labor camp" systemthe system that was eventually employed to incarcerate gays, dissidents, and AIDS victims. To get himself killed, and to get a lot of other people killed, was central to Che's imagination. "
Barf-gag What a great guy.
I dont see why you have a problem with the camps because Bush is such a huge fan of homosexuals and just paid Halliburton all most $500 for detention camps state side. Moreover Ive done extensive research on Che and only seen bits and pieces of what you are talking about. However history is a lens that can be hard to see thought. For example
Gandhi was hugely racist
Dali Lama is a religious dictator that does not believe in any human right
Mother Teresa took money from many abusive dictatorships as donations.
