If you consider #CheGuevara (born-14.06.1928) as your icon or role model, then you have been fooled

Many youngsters put his posters in their rooms, they think it’s cool as he was a young revolutionist

Before calling anyone our role model, it is important to know about him
1/7
#CheGuevara was an ally of Cuban Dictator Fidel Castro but what many do not know about him is that he was a homophobe, racist & a mass murderer like Stalin & Mao were

He had no regard for human life either as is evident from his quote ” Death is necessary for revolution”
2/7
People in Cuba who spoke against him & Castro were arrested & either executed or kept in slave labour camps where they would be tortured to death

He derived pleasure in killing & torturing animals, something that has been confirmed by Alberto Benegas Lynch Jr., Cousin of Che
3/7
The supreme irony is that the youth who wears #CheGuevara on clothing consider him as an icon of youth rebellion

Even popular brands like Nike, Smirnoff, etc have used his image to promote their products among the youth and made him a “Capitalist commodity”
4/7
Marketing him as the face of the rebel youth started in 1997 – coinciding with the spread of globalisation.

As #CheGuevara merchandise – from basketball caps to coffee cups – generates profits in the market, the photo has also generated copyright battles.
5/7
#CheGuevara & his communists ideology played with the minds of youngsters & infiltrated their thoughts with brutality

Che was totally against democratic rules, he was against the freedom of speech and expression and also press freedom.
6/7
Now if you have a poster of #CheGuevara in your room, decided what exactly does it depict

Either you support his meaningless brutality in the name of revolution or you just have no idea about his past!

Let us replace the imported pseudo revolutionist with Swami Vivekananda
