The fact that many Cubans are risking their lives to flee to America is a strong argument; certainly stronger than your lack of one. It's not like they went for the pretty boat ride. The thing is, I've met many people who support communism. One of my best friends believes firmly in it. However, all of those people are middle class, upper middle class, or upper class Americans. On the other hand, I've met several people who were once from communist nations, and not a single one of them had ANYTHING good to say about it. They would go out of their way to ridicule it and call out all the BS. They were all very bitter. I don't want to hijack this thread and make it not about the movie, although the way Che is portrayed will relate directly to the film. I hope it is honest, because we don't need any more people thinking that this man was a good guy. |
