Che Guevara

Che Guevara has transcended his historical role to become both a symbol of pop culture and a historical figure. While he garners more attention than Castro, his image has been extensively commercialized, losing much of its original significance. It is worth noting that he is often regarded as overrated, even among those who sympathize with communist ideals.

According to the assessment of Reddit user pypski, Che Guevara is one of history's most exaggerated figures. Even for those who endorse his cause, his actions are questionable. He was implicated in executing defectors and employed squads to pursue those attempting to desert. Guevara held anti-LGBT and racist views. Despite these aspects, modern society inexplicably elevates him to a heroic status.
