This is wrong. He expressed one slightly homophobic sentiment before he even became communist (he described an individual gay person as a "sexual pervert") and then never said anything homophobic again. That hardly makes him a "well known homophobe". It implies he may have been a bit of a homophobe at one point. Anti-che propagandists have simply extrapolated from this one quote an entirely fabricated rabid homophobia that there is no evidence for. And Che didn't murder prisoners. Everybody Che killed was either a traitor or a war criminal. Within most military structures the punishment for either of those two things is death. Che "murdered prisoners" insofar as any competent general could be accused of doing the same. The main thing to Che's credit is that he did the dirty work himself, which in my book makes him far more honourable than a military commander who passes the sentence and then has others do the killing
@@KC_Streams "Everybody Che killed was either a traitor or a war criminal" That is the excuse dictators use to kill. He murdered many innocent soldiers. and it was Che's cult of machismo that caused the death of many gay people. Stop making excuses for a monster.
@@mrfreeman2911 Give me any example I can independently verify of Che murdering innocent soldiers. While at it, you could also give a single piece of evidence for the other claim you made, if you like. Although it's incredibly ambiguous to just say that his general vibe caused people's deaths I'm not making excuses for a monster. I'm countering falsehoods
What's the difference between a communist revolutionary and a neo nazi? Both worship ideologies that have killed tens of millions and have been disproven as viable.
Ryan Pearceman What events are you talking about that communists "Worship"? If you're stupid enough to think the Great Leap Forward, 5 Year Plan, Great Purge, and countless others are COMMUNIST, well, enough said.
Ryan Pearceman It's only true communism if it follows the manifesto, or at least loosely. The closest thing you can use as an argument is the Leninist era, but if you're really that stupid I suggest reading "The Revolution Betrayed". Or at least 10 pages of it, that should be more than a coherent enough argument against your statement.
Ryan Pearceman Ouch, oh, mother I am slain. The coherence is... is... overwhelming... I am defeated by such a true show of articulation. Well done my friend.
hahahaha I love how Ricky turns offending your fanbase into an artform, 6:40 "luckily no one listening to this show can either write or operate a phone."
Che Guevara's Mother was a Lynch from Ireland, County Galway actually . Also the Iconic image of Che that can be seen on all the T-Shirt's is by a famous Irish artist Jim Fitzpatrick who this year donated the rights to the image to Che Guevara's Family
Ryan Pereman communists never lost there was never any communism because it relies upon a leader who is willing to allow the same for all and human nature is greedy communism never lost because there has never been communism it’s just been a word spread by dictators in order to gain power
well in times of revolution and radical change bloodshed is going to happen regardless of who is the icon or the ideology. Every revolution needs a face for the people look up. In US it was george washington, India it was gandhi, russia it was lenin. Good and Evil is relative it can easily change with a shift in perpective.
Roger Dodger Washington most definitely did. History is written by the winners my friend you think all the negatives of Washington are going to be shown?
All i have to say about communism is that it is a nice idea.But the idea never worked. The biggest thing wrong with it from my perspective is the atheism. I am from Bosnia, former yugoslavia where there was a communist regime, probably the best example of communism in the world because it wasnt connected to anyone either the russians or the west. But it was still shit it was a very mild dictatorship, as long as you pretend the regime is perfect, you are going to be fine. Anyway fuck it got burned once not again!
muhammed jahja I feel that a mild social democracy is much better as long as the government checks their budget and helps create strong industries. Communism was an extreme solution to an extreme problem, back in the day where children were forced to work long hours under the earth or in a cotton factory. I'm not sure if Marx could've predicted the power of unions and health and safety laws today.
No Communism Bosnia under communism was much more better than Bosnia of today. Same can be said of the other republic's. If you really think Bosnia is doing better now than before, then you must be pretty deluded

I'm currently writing an essay on Che Guevara. Instead of picking up a biography from my local library, I'm watching this.
good
"I know you've come to kill me. Shoot, you are only going to kill a man."
They didn't correct him.
There is no evidence he said that.
@@Iamawesomenorly there's no evidence for like 99% of last words
@@zachgravatt5571 So why not just assume they’re apocryphal until proven otherwise..?
Karl is so sweet, lol - I love how he's so dead pan.
He actually said "shoot, you will only kill a man"
che guevara murdered prisoners and was a well known homophobe.
Ironic really.
Shhh, don't spread inconveniant facts about their glorious tyrannical psychopathic murderer idol, marxists don't like that.

As far as brief biographies by Karl go, this is actually fairly accurate.
God, I love Karl.
I was really expecting something unintelligent and idiotic but he got a generally solid overview of Che Guevara

"Good bloke, did a lot."
Maybe Karl didn't read the part where Guevara rounded up gay men and had them killed in the street by firing squads.
Ah well.
Source?
They left out the McDonalds part.. that's the best bit

wearing a che t shirt means you dont know about him
False.
I wonder if you've grown up since 2016/17 😂
currently in hell: Che is burning lololol
Disagree that Che was a good guy but still love Karl's take
Found the American
@Roger Dodger Another one
I read a biography about him ,he made some stupid decisions later after Cuba. I was disappointed.
"ohh.. 'itler"

and he went to school! It's bizarre that KP found him having had asthma to be particularly interesting.
“Good bloke” lol
Yes Steve dropping in rosa parks at the end you legend
These are great :) I love the format of these videos too
The caption could not function properly with their accent... Weird... They are English
Haha. Che Guevera's real name is Engelbert.
7:05 ‘itler
and in a display of utter hypocrisy. Che owned a Rolex.
And he was a white supremacist
Cetoke yeah i heard that he bullied children and liked to punch little kittens... c'mon dude
Underscore Rolex's were popular because they were reliable and didn't break. They weren't the status symbol that they are today
Agent smith p
you mean the white supremacist that traveled to Angola from Cuba and helped the oppressed blacks in Angola fight the oppressive white colonists?
Whether he is right or not I don't know, but he's right not to blindly accept it

How did it go then?
I want hair like that man
Apologies, just thought it was perhaps a university dissertation or something x
"Are you trying to turn my children into communist revolutionaries?" I answer "I might be, but only if you even know what half of those words mean."
I would answer "The communists lost and are irrelevant, I'm just wearing this shirt cause I'm trendy."

+No Communism Atheism and communism are not related, you can believe in all the fairy tales you want and still have a communist society.
+No Communism Atheism has nothing to do with communism. You're conflating an economic idea with a religious one.

When did che guevara commit genocide, remind me?
@Roger Dodger you're telling me there was a genocide during the Cuban Revolution? What ethnic group were killed exactly?
@@samhoey8247 Perhaps genocide is the wrong word, but he did have a habit of executing men believed to be homosexual in the street by firing squad.
