che guevara

A fanatical Argentine communist who joined up with Fidel Castro and became one of the leaders of the Cuban Revolution. Was responsible for the deaths of political prisoners. He was too extreme even for Fidel, so he left Cuba and travelled around the world to foment global revolution (unsuccessfully]. His assassination in Bolivia turned him into a martyr, and his picture was widely reproduced on magazine covers, posters, and T-shirts. It didn't hurt that he was one of the few "hot" communist leaders, making him the James Dean of Communism. Today his picture is worn on T-shirts mostly by wealthy American teenagers from extremely privileged backgrounds, ironically the same class he would love to have destroyed, mainly because he was a very good looking man who is vaguely considered a symbol of rebellion.

Very few of the kids who wear Che Guevara T-shirts have the slightest idea about Che's actual political beliefs.

Che Guevara

A communist douche bag who hated money (literally), executed prisoners of war, and only succeeded in one battle where his opponents actually surrendered. He ran a notorious political prison and murdered many innocent people. He then traveled to the Congo where he fostered more violence. Upon his return to South America, he was murdered by the Bolivian army in much the same way he murdered political prisoners.

Young college douchebag - "Che Guevara was hero!"
Someone with half a brain - "I didn't know heroes ran political prisons and executed men who already surrendered."

che guevara

A man who's faces is on t- shirts that wanna-b socialist or stupid college studnets wear.

A stuppid "know it all college liberal" wears a che guevara t shirt, I tell her she is stupid because she is supporting the capitilist system that Che hated.
She says "he inspired millions of people and gave them hope"
I tell her "So did Hitler"

Che Guevara

Secondary leader of the brutal Marxist revolution along side with Fidel Castro in Cuba, Che is also known for being a Marxist revolutionary throughout Latin America. Che is even made into a key character in the musical "Evita" about Argentinian politics and corruption. Sharing the same opinion as Castro, Che wished to spread communism throughout South America. Che justified the killings of capitalists and other innocent human beings as part of Karl Marx's "dialectic process" of progression into utopian Marxism. Ultimately, Che was a key factor in the destabilization of Latin American governments, and is one of the quintessential causes of prolonged Latin American poverty and widespread death. Che Guevara and Fidel Castro stand on the podium alongside other mass murderers and subversionists in history as evil human beings responsible for destroying the potentials of once great nations.

Che Guevara is the man that Hot Topic puts on its shirts, however little consumerist "anti-society" children don't know that Che probably would have tried to kill them if he was alive today

che guevara

A rather naive Marxist mass-murderer, who carried out Revolutionary "Justice" in Cuba, normally with a pistol to the temple. Drove Cuba's economy into the ground as its head by having a system where supply and demand did not dictate price, but the "social worth" of the item in question. Relished the idea of a global nuclear war between Socialism and Imperialism/Capitalism, and firmly believed that "The People" would be grateful for such a conflict. After falling out of favour in Cuba, he tried to sell himself as a wandering revolutionary in South America, so determined to "help the people" that he wasn't bothered with trifling little details about who they were and what they wanted (he tried to sell a communist revolution to Bolivian natives, who owned their own land and were perfectly happy and therefore told him to sod off). Ended up getting topped in Bolivia by CIA trained soldiers.

Che Guevara is idolised by all kinds of naive students and marxists who are more interested in the myths about the man than what he actually did

Che Guevara

A man whose picture appears on red T-shirts at Hot Topic for around $15-20 bucks. You can also buy iron-on patches and label buttons with Che's face on them for about $1 buck each.

What better way to display your fad-driven support of Communism by buying merchandise supplied by large corporations? Who cares if your supporting the "machine", he looks so badass on those T-shirts. You're sure to impress all your punk/stoner friends and maybe attract that cute alternachick that sits in front of you in your art class if ol' Che is with you.

I'm sure that this is exactly what Che would want: his image used by corporations to sell merchandise to naive teenage "rebels". Corporations know that most so-called "Communists" and "Anarchists" are just glorified potheads that can be just as easily manipulated as an Abercrombie shopper.

Get your parent's credit cards, kids! Cause there's a 50% discount on all Communist related merchandise at Hot Topic! This week only!
