Che Guevara ??????????

Question

can someone please explain to me who Che Guevara is and what he stands for, but simply.

explain simply what his belifs are etc. and whether you agree with them or not

Answer 1

Ernesto "Che" Guevera was born in Argentina.  He was studying to be a doctor. ( See the movie Motorcycle Diaries )  But decided to take a different path.  He helped Fidel Castro in the Cuban Revolution. (see the movie FIDEL) He left Cuba to organize communism/socialsim back in South America.  He was shot and killed by the Bolivian Army.    

  Many conservative/democratic thinkers see Che as a criminal who helped further Communism in Latin America and elsewhere in the world, as well as someone who murdered innocent people.

  Many socialist thinkers see Che as a hero and blamed the US CIA for influencing his murder.  They also say that his brand of communism is nothing like Fidel ended up doing to his people in Cuba.  

Answer 2

I will try to be as brief as possible

He was a communist who lead the revolution in Cuba

Because America treated Cuba as its colony for decades, Che Guevara wasn't really a friend of America

Although he was a communist, he is considered to be a great leader and symbol to many people

Because

He was an ideolist who trully believed in common interest and human rights of poor people and people colorized by Western world

Unlike many other communist dictators

Che Guevara gave up his power and wealth that was guaranteed

and went to Africa to save total stangers, who were suffering

the same miserable fate that Cuba went through

He fought as a soldier, not as a general...and died on the battlefield

So people respect him not for being a communist, but a person

who tried to make the world better for all mankind

Answer 3

che was a marxist revolutionary

he was castro's #2

after the revolution in cuba ended, he was no longer the revolutionary, he was the establishment. he did not like that. he gathered together a band of like minded agitators and went to south america where he hoped to export revolutionaly marxism.  instead, he was shot.

there is no simple explanation of marxism, check it out 4 yourself.
