Che Guevera (Entry 2): Hero of the Revolution

 I Heard that Che Was A Mass Murderer:

Well, I've heard from conservatives that Che was a mass murderer in Cuba. Let's see.

"Researchers have documented 216 victims of Che Guevara in Cuba from 1957 to 1959." This is from an article titled "Che Guevara Was a Racist, Homophobe and Mass Murderer" on HumanProgress.org by Guillermina Sutter Schneider published December 15, 2017. Human Progress is from the Cato Institute.

Nicolas Marquez wrote a biography of Che Guevera that does not gloss over his mass murders. And to quote Guevera, "The uncompromising hatred of the enemy, which drives beyond the natural limits of the human being and turns it into an effective, violent, selective and cold killing machine."

"The biography of Marquez ... is one of the few who dare to touch the dark side of this strange doctor, who broke the Hippocratic Oath to inflict pain and death around the world. And Marquez does not refer to deaths in combat, which could be understood in terms of military duty.   He refers to the sinister side of Guevara, who liked to use his own gun to execute political prisoners.  It is estimated that he alone executed in cold-blood 216 people." - from "'The Killing Machine', Diary of 'Che' Guevera (1928-1967)" by Juan Vega published February 25, 2020 on RNHA.org

Well, that's convincing enough for me. So, what do I do with that? Didn't he do a lot of good things for the revolution?
