This is a tribute to the ideals of a free man who faught against imperialism and struggled for the equality of all people. A hero to some, a nightmare to others. Ernesto 'Che' Guevara was of Argentinian descent, growing up in a middle class home he went on to study medicine and later acquired his P.H.D. in South America. Upon his travels through Latin America Che quickly witnessed an imbalance in the standard of living between Latin American countries and their northern neighbours, the U.S, soon thereafter set out a revolution against capitolistic ideals. After over-throwing Batista and taking power in Cuba alongside Fidel Castro Guevara was later captured in Bolivia and executed.
This video does not in any way promote violence or hate, it is simply a tribute to a man and his ideals of freedom, even though many men died along the way, I'll leave you with a quote from Che himself:
"unfortunately sometimes we have to sacrifice a few good men in the good will of freedom."

  • Murderer!

  • "The Negro is indolent and lazy, and spends his money on frivolities, whereas the European is forward-looking, organized and intelligent." Adolf Hitler? Nope!

    Who said that if he had nuclear weapons he would used them against the very important places in America including New York City? And who said that the US is the greatest enemy of mankind and against those hyenas there is no option but extermination? Osama bin Laden? Nope!

    So who? Yess, your hero Che!

  • Most interesting part is between 3:45 and 3:55.

  • @RiftRaft123 Every time? Please, provide me these implements.

    Communism endorses music and art. Karl Marx was a huge fan of art. Just because some guy acts like a gangster and calls himself Communist, doesn't mean the person is a Communist. Propaganda is also against Communism.

    You've mistaken Communism with Chinese State-Capitalism and Soviet Union Stalinism. In Communism, expression of opinion is one of the top priorities of a citizen.

  • @MrMcGale I disagree every time when Communism was implemented, culture seemed to be eradicated. Yes musical pieces and art were created to in adulation of the rise of Communism but these were often forced upon people by what you call the "controller". When I refer to humanity, I'm talking about how Communism ignored ones creativity, everyone is supposedly equal but limited in what they can express. Also, i don't believe you can call prosperity greed if one worked for their wealth.

  • @RiftRaft123 Depends on the style of the Communism. Also, culture is one of the main targets of Communism. Oh, well, Social issues are the #1 aim. You see, greed is not a human trait, but a thing that comes with age, money and too much wealth. Compassion is humanity, and Communism endorses compassion.

    In Communism, feelings matter more than brain. The human matters, not the controllers. Every person has the right to a decent life.

  • @MrMcGale Also, how do you feel about Communism resulting in a lack of cultural innovation? The plan of communism is that production increases dramatically but culture is almost completely cut off. It seems as if the ideology ignores all aspects of being human, seeming as if man is more of a robot when discussing how society would work when the doctrine is implemented.

  • @MrMcGale Thats because the simple concept can't work. There will always be haves and have nots. It can only work in an Utopian world. Also, if everyone in a country is communist then what does that make the country? Communism itself seems to have never been fully thought through. It seems more like a religion or a philosphy rather than a form of government but it was built on the basis as a form of government.

  • @RiftRaft123 Oh, I do know that the nations did try to achieve Communism. They just didn't know that it can't happen that fast, and it cannot be controlled by a Vanguard Party. You see, a nation cannot be Communist. It would be a Commune without a state.

    China and USSR. China's never even tried to be Communist. Sure, Mao was a Communist first, when he gave everything to the poor, but then he came to power and became a State Capitalist. The 5-year plan is plain Stalinism.

  • @MrMcGale You fail in critical thinking, the message I was trying to convey is that Communism as an IDEOLOGY is equality but very very few people stuck to the ideology as history shows. Even countries whose whole country was built on communism didn't follow the ideology. It only works in a Utopian world. Also, its economic standpoints ignores scarcity which is seen with China and Russia failing in five year plans to provide food and good quality goods. Back arguements with history.
