I mean there’s legitimate criticisms to be made of Che Guevara. He was absolutely a morally complex person who undeniably made errors that cost people their lives. He did believe in revolutionary violence, and I disagree with some of the actions he took under that notion, such as executing traitors who sold information to anti-revolutionary forces. He admitted openly to doing that and how he came to view his actions at that time later in life is open to some interpretation.
He also spent significant years of his life building and organizing bakeries, hospitals and schools to improve the lived conditions of the extremely impoverished in Cuba. He lived among them and I believe that he genuinely believed in their liberation.
To reduce him to a murderer is just to dismiss every other action he took, and the context within which he did endorse revolutionary violence. As for the accusation of rape I have literally never heard any such accusation before, and am unable to find anything online corroborating that.
It’s just liberals painting enemies with a broad brush while acting like ‘the west’ is the only ‘correct’ way of doing things, absolutely ignoring the shit they externalized.
Global south is in such a state because of the west.
I didn’t agree with the guy you were replying to but for some reason I can’t agree with you either.
