because he died fighting for the rights of the masses of people to bring about equality and change
Dedicating your life to a shitty cause isn't something to be remembered for. We don't glorify pro-lifers who bomb abortion clinics. The world has known communism wouldn't work for a long time before Che tried it.
the batista dictatorship before castro took over was an oppressive political dictatorship and not a socialist regime where the literacy rate is almost 100%, life expectency is now like 79 and health care is free
if you really think it was better, do some research on who batista really was and some of the policies he enforced. of course before he was kicked out & stole all of the national treasury from cuba. the CIA then led the bay of pigs invasion because they wanted to control the country, but the communists whooped their ass
maybe because he did more good than you ever will
Cuba is a shithole. It is run by a person who is diagnosably insane and the people there hate their government now. They're willing to float 100 miles on a raft to escape it.
Did Cuba need a revolution? Yes. Che Guevara was a moron though.
edit - If Guevata was alive today, he'd be covertly arested and held as a terrorist for the rest of his life. His methods were absolutely atrocious.
