Che Guevara
Ernesto "Che" Guevara (1928-1967) was an Argentine Marxist revolutionary, physician, author, guerilla leader, diplomat and military theorist. After playing a pivotal role in the Cuban Revolution, he later left Cuba in 1965 to foment revolution abroad. His aim was to incite insurgencies and overthrow capitalist regimes in Africa and Latin America. Guevara was captured by CIA-assisted forces in Bolivia in 1967 and executed. His death solidified his status as an iconic political rebel figure and enduring symbol of revolution. Though controversial, Che has had an enduring legacy and global impact as one of the most recognizable faces of 20th century leftist anti-imperialism. The memes about him concentrate on his revolutionary activities – and contrasting them with oppressive authoritarian rules that prohibit protesting. [Claude AI, edited]
