      "read a book" on Che Guevara :che-laugh: something that has infamously never set anybody on a path to marxism-leninism

      How many negative books about Che even exist? Really fucking hard to paint him badly at all.

        because direct accounts are so universally praiseworthy they sneak anti che screeds into general anti-communist books with choice che quotes

          Yeah exactly, if you read any book dedicated to Che there is not enough content to write a book without it being generally positive because that's what his life was.

        I mean, he was maximalist who was constantly agitating for head on confrontation with the US

        The fact that he was allowed as a left wing voice in the cuban government who was even occasionally listened to speaks volumes imo.
