  Got a random IM tonight from someone whose profile read " Che is God" needless to say I felt compelled to engage:  & nbsp;  iseecharly:
 so what is your political stand point at the time bug chris iseecharly:  big*  CXCross :  Put it this way:  I have a shirt that reads " Anti-
Che"  iseecharly:  i love che CXCross :  I noticed iseecharly:  what did he do wrong CXCross :  Other than be a rather brutal,
 murderous dickwad that helped usher into Cuba and Latin America oppressive gov'ts?  Nothing.  CXCross :  All in pusuit of the most murderous ideology in human history,  nothing,  he's a heckuva guy.
 iseecharly:  ok ok so your saying that batista was a good not opressive leader then CXCross :  No,  batista wasn't good.  But Castro et al was worse iseecharly:  hmm how is this so iseecharly:
 he is bad but butista ooooooo CXCross :  For one,  Cuba's rate of development and economy was on par with Spain,  Italy and other European countries prior to Castro- they were an economy in ascendance. nbsp;
 They are a stagnant and politcally repressive one now CXCross :  politically*  iseecharly:  do to the embargo act that america placed on cuba CXCross :  The entire world is free to trade with Cuba CXCross :  except the US.
 iseecharly:  no CXCross :  Yes.  CXCross :  Every other country in the world can freely trade with Cuba if it so chooses.  CXCross :
 The problems facing Cuba are not the result of the embargo- they are the result of an unfree,  totalitarian society that cannot accept political dissent in any form.  iseecharly:  the alies of the us cant traid with cuba becouse the su would accuse them of being communist or simpothisors CXCross :  So?
 We'd still trade with themCXCross:  We can't afford to not trade with China for example iseecharly:  its true CXCross :  So despite China being Communist and oppressive,  we must trade with them CXCross :  We still trade with Canada,
 which freely trades with Cuba and allows flights into Havana iseecharly:  yes that is true CXCross :  Canada is in fact our largest trading partner. despite their stance towards Cuba CXCross :  so that argument doesn't work CXCross :  So you can't blame the embargo iseecharly:
 i guess i cant iseecharly:  mm this convorsation i like CXCross :  how old are you?  iseecharly:  i am but a 17 year old CXCross :  Why do so many your age love Che?
 CXCross :  Is it a suburban thing?  iseecharly:  i think its his ideals on revolution and the anti- imperialistic views on capitalism CXCross :  Does his role in the deaths of thousands ever factor in?
 CXCross :  Does the fact that communism has killed more than Nazism ever factor in?  iseecharly:  hmmm it was for a couse iseecharly:  but so has cappital ism CXCross :  Ummm.
no.  Communism wins that race,  hands down.  iseecharly:  nvm iseecharly:  yes that is CXCross :
 Stalin's Great Terror,  China " Great Leap Forward"  Cambodia's Khmer Rouge,  etc iseecharly:  thats do to bad leader ship and madmen CXCross :
 Has there been a Communistic society that HASN'T killed tens of thousands?  CXCross :  ever?  iseecharly:  im not sure CXCross :  The answer is no.
 iseecharly:  kelodcov iseecharly:  but he did kill iseecharly:  im not in leage it communism and i dont think it would work iseecharly:  but cappitalism is full of greed and corruption CXCross :  humanity is full of greed and corruption iseecharly:
 i find that i perfer social democrasy over all iseecharly:  like cannada CXCross :  Canada is still capitalist iseecharly:  no socialist iseecharly:  its social democratic CXCross :  No,
 capitalist.  They just spend proportionally more on social spending than the US iseecharly:  so it norway CXCross :  but they are still a free market system for the most part iseecharly:  yes iseecharly:  i depart for now but i shall return later &
