I think the good things Che did (participate in revolutions around the world, become a great symbol and rallying point of communism) outweighed the evil things he did (killed a whole bunch of prisoners of war without trial, although, its debatable as to whether or not its evil, personally i think it was - at least give them a trial) so i said he was great!

TRC is indeed bullshit.

Che was a man, he had flaws, but his cause was indeed noble.

...cuba is actually doing great lol, especially when compared to the u.s. right now.

the benefit is they can try to build more excuses to invade and establish a puppet regime like they did before XD

also, make note, its only the u.s., israel, and uzbekistan (random lol) that's against cuba (i'm referring to chomsky's speech about whether or not capitalism is making life better)

in cuba the quality of stuff is really crap. the cars there are from the 1950s and 60s. i'd much rather live in the US, thank you very much.

if you were a member of the lower class, who grew up in a ghetto, i think you'd beg to differ...

Sorry, but a Cubans beg to differ.

This website is from a cuban living there who went from NorthAmerica to there, and this is what he has to say.

http://www.cubatruth.org/

And this will eliminate your statement on a different post saying "Capitalism has better living standards."

As always, if you don't beileve this, pull up some more, make sure their actually from cubans though, not some NorthAmerican that thinks hes cool by saying communism is bad and i like my billons of dollars from being a lazy corporation owner (AKA - Therealcuba.com)

Che was rabidly anticommunist and slaughtered marxism.

He was a petty bourgeois populist revolutionary at best

Not a big fan of Che so I went for 'Horrid'

Seriously I don't understand why leftist seem to be so taken in by Cuba and Che (especially since Che was supposed to have Maoist sympathies).

that's actually propaganda. he didn't execute people without trial, he was brought in exactly for that purpose. because people were going crazy after the revolution and were out in the streets seeking vengeance against their former torturers. everyone who was executed had a lawyer to represent them, evidence was presented, they were judged by their peers, etc.
