Yet the handsome young face, gaze set firmly on the future, has lived on through generations. In today&#8217;s imagination Ch\u00e9 remains a mythical, romantic hero &#8212; an uncompromising revolutionary, selfless, dedicated, incorruptible, ready to die for his beliefs.<\/p>\n<p><b>Anti-American, Pro-Communist<\/b><br \/>\nAt age 26, Guevara arrived in Mexico. He had spent five weeks in Bolivia and nine months in Guatemala, where he witnessed the overthrow of reformist president Jacobo Arbenz by a CIA-backed military coup. The event forever fixed his hatred of the United States. By then he was a convinced Marxist, and ardent admirer of the Soviet Union. Married to a Guatemalan woman, Hilda Galea, he intended to name his first son Vladimir. He had decided to join the ranks of the Communist Party, &#8220;somewhere in the world.&#8221; But despite his lofty ideals, Ch\u00e9 was little more than a drifter, a wandering photographer, an underpaid medical researcher &#8212; a rebel in search of a cause.<\/p>\n<p><b>Death of a Revolutionary<\/b><br \/>\nThe Bolivian Rangers captured Ch\u00e9 Guevara on October 8, 1967, at a ravine called El Yuro. The next day he was executed. His body was photographed on a stone slab in a small hut for the whole world to see. On October 12, an American State Department analysis of Ch\u00e9&#8217;s death predicted, &#8220;Guevara will be eulogized as the model revolutionary who met a heroic death.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pbs.org\/wgbh\/americanexperience\/features\/castro-che-guevara-1928-1967\/\">LINK<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The only good Commie is a Dead Commie.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>From his first meeting with Fidel Castro\u00a0in Mexico in 1955 to his death in the Bolivian &hellip; <a title=\"Che Guevara &#8211; the only kind of good Commie\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=82233\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Che Guevara &#8211; the only kind of good Commie<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":667,"featured_media":82234,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[224,177,87],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-82233","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-darwin-awards","category-dumbass-bullshit","category-general-whackos"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/82233","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/667"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=82233"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/82233\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/82234"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=82233"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=82233"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=82233"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
