TRUTH about Che Guevara - Forgotten History 

Agreed. Thanks for watching.

And there thick as shit

Though I had seen his image memorialized on some t-shirts, I had no idea who he was until I watched this video.

It’s not the US that idolizes him! It’s the left, the dems. Please do not confuse them with normal Americans. This people are so dumb they don’t know or even take the time to learn of his atrocities. They watch main stream media and believe every word!

Che wrote in a letter to his father how his firing squad would not adhere to his order to shoot an 11 year old boy, so he did it himself, shot him in the neck and almost decapitated the child. He wrote to his father that he was beginning to get a taste for it. Put that on a shirt.

Yeah, I bet many who wear his t-shirt today have no clue about who he really was.

Great post thanks for watching

@Colin Heaton id love for you guys to do a forgotten history on my ancestor John of Gaunt, i feel you would love learning about him and create an amazing episode for your viewers on an obscure historical figure lesser known

@@josepheckbold6568 I know very much about him, very famous and influential man. I have a few like that in my ancestry also. Good message thanks.

It is an experience to meet true asylum seekers and refugees and to listen to what they say about where they were from, why they came to the US, and what they would do to defend the US

Trofim Lysenko

Honestly I think it had much to do with his looks and charm. His face on shirts still sell millions bc it appeals to the counter culture. I mean you see no other communist leader revered like that. I mean there’s no shirts or posters in the West of Lenin, Stalin, or any Soviet leader. Even Castro himself never had the appeal that Che does. His good looks and charm make him palatable to those who just see him as nothing but a revolutionary. The obsession with Che is all very surface level. It’s been proven people are more likely to trust an attractive face over an ugly one. It’s also why attractive people are more likely to get an easy sentence or slap on the wrist whereas ugly criminals are more likely to get a harsh sentence. Attractive bias is real. I mean the Bible always said Lucifer was God’s most beautiful angel.

What military commander isn’t a so called murderer ?

What about Fucking Kissinger, was he a great man? That is a true murderer.

Yes, Che openly adopted the Lenin, Stalin, Beria and Mao methods. Thanks for watching.

He's an idol to "socialist" idiots on this thread who have the luxury of being born in America.

That’s because evil knows no boundaries ! Birds of a feather stick together. May they rot in hell !!!

Che was the cool communist

@@luisvelez5695You mean a cool mass mu r d er er!

Thanks for watching

He’s no more monstrous than the leaders of ANY nation with the exception of a rare rare few

Guevara was like most Communists. He spent the years of his life completely consumed by hatred of the United States. Even though his obsession and odd preoccupation never once prevented the US from prospering and thriving. And it's not likely that when he departed this life his final earthly thoughts were any different.

His image has not changed, what’s being said in this video is no revelation it’s standard propaganda that’s been pushed since the 70s. It’s amazing to me how Cuban expats can be so anti Cuban. People in Cuba have always overwhelmingly supported the revolution and Castro’s government. To think some people would rather take the word of a stowaway rat like you over the nations Citizens.

@@kilroy1976 Man you are delusional. The people will lynch you in Cuba for saying dumb ass shit like that.

All those people left cuba. Che stayed fought and won.

​​@@emilioesquivel6883he only things he won are the adulation of the fanatical and disinformed, and the well-deserved reputation of being a sadistic psychopath

@@peghead Funny as hell.

​@@pegheadthe Trudeau's were swingers and went to Cuba.

Thanks for watching.

The point isn’t to know who Che actually was for the young psychopath admirer; the point is that he represents the same psychopathy, which is a desire to produce nothing and take what others produce, and to inflict the same damage as ferally.

I had to explain to my kids the truth about Che and why they had no business wearing a shirt with his face on it... they never got those shirts.

🎯

Seems to me he's a fake. May have the charismatic look but a hateful person.

Ha! Of course he did. All of the "communists" I know come from very wealthy families. Absolute hypocrites.

It is amazing how many Communist dictators end up having huge palaces, luxury cars, their own aircraft and an attentive staff of servants and above all £Billions in various international banks. All in the name of helping the workers mind!

@mgcarmkm4520 - Well, NOT EVERYONE believed of what you had stated about Cuba and Fidel Castro because they were being regarded as alternative facts by their detractors.

@@robertpolanco1973 Yeah well, do some research. Castro had his own luxury yacht at 88 feet. He had a personal beach and areas of the coast that were reserved exclusively for him, his family and his buddies for them to fish and scuba dive in. If that was not enough, he had a private island. Oh yes, he had his own personal farm to provide him with fresh fruit and vegetables, complete with orange groves. Meanwhile his people starved. He had up to 20 villas across Cuba and the Caribbean. He told his people he lived in a fisherman's hut - the stinking liar! To western journalists he admitted to five to seven villas, saying he slept in a different one each night so assassins could not guess his whereabouts. He also had numerous mistresses and indulged them in luxury. But hey! *LONG LIVE THE REVOLUTION!*

@@johnrandall125 Castro liked the good life, there's no doubt about that. In western society at least we know its grab what you can. The communist dogma preaches that 'we are a collective, we are all equally poor'. Yet the most rabid communist leaders that outwardly hate western society live a life of excess that would embarrass royalty. Look at North Korea for instance. Communism just doesn't work as it's not an open economy.

so youre offended by people wearing shirts? haha

​@@ВадимВадимович-ь6т ya when the guy is a mass murderer like Hitler. I guess you where Hitler shirts too

​@@ВадимВадимович-ь6т "My nostrils dilate while savoring the acrid odor of gunpowder and blood!” raved Guevara in his Motorcycle Diaries (though this aspiration is omitted from liars like Howard Zinn and the lefts depiction ) “Crazy with fury I will stain my rifle red while slaughtering any vencido that falls in my hands! With the deaths of my enemies I prepare my being for the sacred fight and join the triumphant proletariat with a bestial howl!” The left also leaves that the blood he loves to smell with gunpowder was from the shooting of unarmed men and boys at point blank range. vencido means surrendered.

You think George washington ben Franklin and their gang were any better?

@@emilioesquivel6883 And FRANCO...🤭🤭

George Bush is responsible for killing over 1M civilians in Iraq!

Not at all ambitious in terms of personal achievement.

@@emilioesquivel6883 Yes I do! Washington and Franklin didn't summarily execute people like Che did. To compare him to them shows how little you actually know about them. However, my Robespierre comparison is apt. If you even know who that is.

Don't know if fighting a guerrilla war in the mountains of Cuba for 2 year, counts for work? Not condoning the man's atrocities but like at least have a balanced view of the guy lol

@@junyank1846 I'm referring to the drudgery of years and years of poorly paid menial work

I think those who are doing the sweeping somehow feel the wrong system of governance and economics survived. These same people, who are doing the sweeping, changed the nature of higher education from teaching young people how to think, to a mission of teaching their charges what to think.

@@RicardoMartinez-oh9sq moi?

@@AlexanderNixonArtHistory Am I a Marxist? Yes. In 1973, the U.S. Department of State gave the government of my native Argentina a security grant, which the government used to create a death squad called Argentine Anticommunist Alliance, or Triple A. This squad kidnapped and murdered thousands of people.

Glad you enjoy it!

@@FORGOTTENHISTORYCHANNEL A very controversial but true historical event was the attempt to create a Fascist coup by the Bush, Herriman, Ford and Dulles families in 1934. General Smedley Butler exposed it, but FDR let them get away with this treason! Could you please do a show about it?

It's true, they don't. Putin's government isn't real communism. It's a black market government where bribes are the currency and you don't get ahead by what you know, but WHO you know. Very much like capitalism, but way more crooked. That's why alcoholism is rampant and loyalty to the state has to be forced on the people. It's a authoritative regime, like any fascist state. True communism hasn't existed anywhere in the world for decades.

AND he was right, as history has proven!

their considerably worse than any other political group historically and they are socialists its all the same ideology.

What

"communists aren't any better than any other political group!" They are the worst.

The Bautista regime was brutal. Castro showed up on the shores of Cuba with only 200 men on two boats. Bautista was so bad that the people didn't object to Castro and his army taking over.

@@seanm729 I’m merely saying that brutality can be inflicted by whatever regime in power. Communists are no better than any other regime.

Ignorance of economics is an outstanding trait of Keynesians, Socialists and such. They know what works, they just refuse to give power and freedom to the people. They enjoy the spotlight of "savior"

Communism never delivers on its promises except they do redistribute the wealth….to themselves!! Their utopian visions always fail, but only every time😅🙏💗🇺🇸

yes, sort of like Sherman destroyed the Confederate economy, freeing the slaves and killing every Batista bastard he could find.

No Socialist knows squat about Economics.

You're absolutely right.

Seems that way

That is truly the only way the US can be defeated, is from within

Time to hit the brakes on the institutions, and take them back from the "woke" neo-Marxists!

Yes, it’s being threatened by supporters of a twice impeached insurrectionist ex-president who amplified people’s inner hatred to create division.

We would nationalize the property and take it from China, at least under a competent administration. Thanks for watching.

Yeah funny that...wonder why so much of his history was glossed over 🤔

Also one of the biggest shareholders was a US senator and his brother, who also was a big shareholder of the the United fruit company, was the head of the CIA. The CIA conveniently convinced the president that Guatemala was becoming a communist state and was green lit to start the coup that led to a 20 year civil war. Che Guevara was a no good dirty commie but his turning point was legitimate

@@custardgannet4836 Probably the same reason when they're talking about the Holocaust, they don't go into an elaborate discourse about the Versailles treaty. One has nothing to do with the other, outside of a lame attempt to justify socialist atrocities.

The national fruit company is just as big a villain as Che. Guevara rebellion wouldn't even have existed if not for them.

We can only wish all commie assholes join che maybe in hell they will finally build their utopia since on earth they only create hell

I would like to see the so called revolutionary heroes disinterred and their ashes scattered on the sea. Bad enough Cuba is host to such depraved monsters. The monastery that’s Cuba exceeds for inhumanity Robert Owens’ notorious phalansteries.

@@robertrodes1546 Complete support might be a slight overstatement, but FDR sold the Poles down the river with barely a second thought.

You make a valid point. Thanks for watching.

The African excursion was not Che's idea- Fidel was in the process of consolidating his power in the new Cuban goverment and he (Fidel) was getting rid of anyone who might challenge him. Fidel also got rid of another popular leader Camilo Cienfuegos. Back to Che Fidel ordered Che abroad as an "ambassador " per se to get him out of Cuba while he was back home and installing all his allies throughout the government posts.

What? He was a blood thirsty terrorist in the literal sense he didn't care about anything other than executing and hunting human beings.

We have an episode on him as well.

@@FORGOTTENHISTORYCHANNEL I didn't care for the way you sidestepped the exploitation of the American Fruit Company.

Arbenz offered to compensate UFC for the land as based on the tax value the company's own accountants declared.

Gen. Butler was a hushed prophet. Amazing American who tried his best to warn about the way things work. He still would have taken care of Che in the ways of the Corps. Problem solved. Different times in history.

Of course they sidestepped it, or did you really believe this was an unbiased and truthful portrayal of Che and the United Fruit Company! LOL @@JamesLee-mp8hk

Good info, thanks for watching.

remember the true mantra of all revolutions; once the revolution is won, the revolutionaries themselves are no longer needed. That's because the fighters are promised utopia, and then realize they get hell instead. That is why every revolution purges its own who helped the cause, and then began re-educating the next generation into the doctrine.

I've read several sources that some Black Green Berets helped to frustrate him in the Congo, intending to embarrass and make him a laughing stock instead of killing him.

@@terrykeever9422 Very possible, the CIA was down there and the pilots who flew from the Congo were ex-Cubans paid by the CIA.

Columbia University educated liberal lawyer! I had no idea. Doesn't surprise me. One of my professors at University attended UCLA with Omar Gaddafi. After WWII, I believe it was Yale who set up a satellite branch in China. Mao became the editor of the University paper and was groomed for leadership buy American influence. Henry Kissinger, Klaus Schwab's high-ranking Nazi father and Harvard University created the World Economic Forum, called by another name at that time. Klaus Schwab Junior was assigned directorship, 1971.

Che and Castro weren't murderers monsters or psychopaths and Che was captured by US backed fascists in Bolivia the only time he ever stepped foot in Venezuela was when he travelled around latin america in 1952 15 years before his execution

Yeah rich Americans would not do good under a Che or a Castro

@@kenhoyer8601 We had Trump

@@luisvelez5695 we had ( have ) trump, but Che was a revolutionary. Trump has no ideology , just narcissism

Like all socialists, they are jealous of success.

Is it really jealousy or is it simple human nature? Many of the current mega wealthy are so tight with their money that they will never spend more than a fraction of it. What is the benefit of having that much money and not doing something vaguely good with it? If a multi billionaire paid his workers twice what he does now he would hardly notice it in real terms but his workers would have much more money to spend and that would effectively help make the rich even richer.

The hunger for justice is not jealousy. It may appear so to those who covet everything they see.

@@fgoindarkg Very eloquently said!

@@fgoindarkg Justice? Was Che acting with "justice" when he forced his grandmother's servant girl to have sex with him? Yeah, he'd get up from the table, shove her into the kitchen, bang her, and go back to the table. Of course, if Grammy wasn't there, he'd bang her right at the table, even when he brought friends over. "Oh, but he hadn't achieved Revolutionary Consciousness yet!" you would argue. Fine. Was he acting with justice when he stepped in and blew Eutimio Guerra's head off? You see, after Fidel, Che, & their buddies crashed the Granma (Fidel's boat) and began their "invasion", they hired a poor local farm kid to be their guide. Batista's army got ahold of young Eutimio and coerced him into giving up the rebels' position. When Fidel found out, he ordered Eutimio's execution. The other rebels thought that was too harsh a sentence, and the two men who were assigned to do the job balked. That was when Che, who had mostly been just a hanger-on up to that point, stepped in and shot the kid. That impressed Fidel, which was why he made Che a commander. "Oh, but it was a war! It was for the greater good!" you will no doubt whine. How about this: When Che was commander of La Cabana prison, he ordered the executions of thousands of so-called Batista supporters. The problem was that Batista's supporters had almost all fled the country. Che killed innocent people just to intimidate the public so that they wouldn't resist the new Castro regime. Was Che acting with justice when he forced people to "volunteer" for unpaid work cutting sugar cane, load ships, etc.? Was he acting with justice when he ducked out on 2 wives, at least 6 children, and who knows how many mistresses, just so that he could run around playing revolutionary? You have been brainwashed by the Castro regime's propaganda. And that makes you extremely uncool. Hey, if you're looking for some fun summer reading, check out Che's African diaries. After the Castro brothers got tired of him, they set him up as roving revolutionary in the Congo. His diary tells how poor, utterly clueless Che stumbled around Africa, getting his ass kicked the whole time. It's absolutely hilarious!

Yeah, haven't seen one in ages. It seems to have gone out of style. Guerrilla warfare and industrial development in the third world must be pretty far from the minds of the Extinction Rebellion crowd nowadays... I used to have several Che shirts. I can't plead ignorance here, I actually studied communism and liked it. But that's a long time ago. Now I wouldn't say I'm embarrassed because of that, but for sure I would look back at it as something from a completely different time and life phase. Most people who were revolutionaries back then probably have mortgages and beer bellies now. In the 90s and early 2000s, people were also all about the Zapatistas, they seem to have just disappeared off the map as well. Ski masks are out, the masks from Casa de Papel are in... Whether for ideological reasons or just as a symbol of rebellion, both the Che and EZLN fads seem a bit silly in retrospect.

@@No14210 I wouldn't be ashamed of liking the idea of communism when you were younger, I did as well. Sharing everything equally is preached in kindergarten after all - it is a romantic and appealing idea in theory - the problem is when real adult governments adopt it they pervert the concept and horde the wealth and power and everyone suffers.

@@FORGOTTENHISTORYCHANNEL Are you guys naive or just dishonest? United Fruit Company was owned by Rockefeller - the same verminous psychopath responsible medical research establishment that gave us SARS-CoV-2 and the fake vaxeeeens that the government mandated. And the primary purpose of United Fruit was to act as a CIA front to destabilise the economies of South and Central America countries. Oh, and who funded the commies…? Enough already with this nonsense.

You are either a serial liar or an idiot. Out of charity, I should describe you as an idiot. You did not even know that Guevara's first wife was a Peruvian economist since you confound Hilda Gadea with Hilda Beatriz Guevara. I nearly choked when you praised United Fruit Company for its generosity in providing employment (ie slavery) to people who would otherwise have been unemployed. Having an American claim to provide the "TRUTH about Che Guevara" is like asking a member of the German Nazi party to provide the "TRUTH" about Adolf Hitler". Since you insist on slandering Che Guevara as a mass murderer, may I point out that even if a mere fraction of this were true, it would be insignificant compared to the mass killings carried out by your presidents, former and present ones. Yes, for you, the killings carried out by your presidents can be justified as bringing democracy to the countries concerned, conveniently neglecting to mention the political and, above all, the economic and financial benefits of their killings. By the way, Guevara, a prisoner who had surrendered, was executed on the orders of the US Government who never miss an opportunity to express, albeit wth moral justification, the execution of US citizens in captivity or who, in military uniforms, surrendered. Mr IDIOT, do humanity a favour and kindly keep your lies and/or ignorance to yourself.

By the same token, go ahead and accuse Che of being a child rapist, alright?

I had an extensive conversation a few years ago with an elderly gentleman who fought with Castro's forces as a teenager. He became disillusioned with the communists, escaped to Florida, and had a great 40-year career with Disney. Our discussion did not touch on Guevara, but the man told me that his dad had a highly successful mango orchard of 600 trees. The communists bulldozed the whole thing, completely destroying it.

@@ricardocorbie6803 for the life of me I can't understand why younger generations adore him, except maybe college professors are distorting his attributes he was a tyrant.

he surely followed the "Revolutionaries" version of the Hippocratic Oath

He was a contradictory figure to be sure. Thanks for watching.

@@danielorion246 the real hero is The El Salvador President Nayib Bukele I admire and applaud him for what he’s done for his country and his people!! God Nayib Bukele!!

Thanks for watching

Well, Che killed a lot of poor people.

@@FORGOTTENHISTORYCHANNEL For example?

He did it to the ones who deserved it

@@TurtleChad1 No one deserves it

@@MissCleo24 Please study more on him, he did terrible things!!!

​@@MissCleo24 Women and children deserved it?!

Young people do not realize how brutally neo-Nazis tortured, raped, and killed in my native Argentina from 1976 to the Falklands War: people like you can't care less.

Thanks for watching

@@FORGOTTENHISTORYCHANNEL 🙏❤️

disgusting is right

That would be complex, and depended upon with whom you spoke. Thanks for watching.

I agree with you.

Che was complicated, but the 20,000 deaths were a result of his directives, not his personal actions. The National Archives record refers to his personal involvement. Remember that he had wounded men executed. Thanks for watching.

Pol Pot probably pursued the idea of a "more just society" as well.

Pol Pot was a genuine crockpot psychopath that would have never taken power had not the dynamic duo, Nixon/Kissinger, not depose the peaceful prince Norodom Sihanouk. And thank god it a North Vietnamese Army blitzkrieg that got rid of him.

And Stalin, Mao, Hitler and Blair.@@peghead

I believe as you do. He wanted to help, not die an old man in a bed of gold ( like Castro, mao, Stalin).

Thanks for watching.

Thanks for watching

Liberals love their Marxists

@@MissCleo24 what bullshit😂😂😂😂 learn about the man. Not the myth. Extreme homophobe and racist. Even Castro was embarrassed by him in the end.

Go ahead, relativize the evil of Nazism if you want, that is the next logical step to your argument.

Thanks for watching.
