Offensive? Only if you're Che Guevara.

Posted by SloMo228 on 01-28-2008 in Is the Che Guevara Pig offensive?

I can't see how the Che image with a pig face is offensive to anyone except for Che and the goons who still cling to the image of him as a saintly defender of "the people."

Che was a murderous and ruthless killer who, thankfully, had a mostly impotent career with the exception of the Cuban revolution which was already in motion before he joined. I find a certain satisfaction in the proliferation of his image contorted into mockeries or, even better, sold to millions. I can think of no better or more fitting eulogy for the communist warrior than having his face printed on t-shirts, mugs, etc., and sold to trendy hipsters for $25.
