I was walking around school, when I met a communist friend of mine, (It turns out, that there are more communists, socialists, and anarchists around my shcool than I thought!) and I payed for this one shirt he had of Che Guevara, because I really wanted it. So I got the shirt and put it on, and started walking around school, here are some reactions people gave me.

Students that Know I'm a leftist: Things they replyed with ranged from things like "Oh my God, I can't believe you're wearing that!" and "Ah! Commie!"...

A friend I had who isn't a leftist: "Are you ACTUALLY wearing that thing in Public"

Some teacher that was walking by: "Nice shirt.."

Other leftists: "Hah! cool!"

Just figured I would post some ways that people replyed to me wearing the shirt in school. There were surprisingly a lot of people supporting me, including that one teacher!

Yay..

Unfortunately most people in my school are dumbasses. I have 2 Che T-shirts (I got them in Cuba) and the first time I wore one all these kids were saying "Hey! Is that Howard Stern???"

No surprise that the most educated person had the best reaction.

I dont like che being on t shirts i think that if you have to use a t shirt to get across your political veiws then you havent learnt the power of the word

my is it powerful
if someone critises your leftist belifes then dont walk straight past confront them and youll see how uneducated people are in this subject it is quite funny as well, i saw a guy with a rage hoody on it had che on the back and i asked him "do you know who that is on your back" the guy replied "zack" from rage aginst the machine" i could of taken his skate board and beatten him to a bloody pulp with it but i didnt i just said "wrong answer cappie"

duh, youre pretty cool, unknown

i got a che shirt for my history day presentation and i was kicked out of competition for wearing it

people at my school tend to say things like, "Duh, is that Prince" and "Duh, Che rhymes with gay"

*shakes head wistfully*

Unknown, yet again you make me get the feeling that you are one of the worlds biggest wankers...I thought that the idea was to put his imgae on T-Shirts - then sell them off real cheap / or give them away, then when people see his image they will ask "whos that" and become more educated...Of course you *know* much more than me (hahaha) and *know* that "if you have to use a t shirt to get across your political veiws then you havent learnt the power of the word". Well dumbass didn't it accur to you that maybe, just maybe not everyone speaks the same language? PLEASE think before you post.

Oh and "well done" for showing that LITTLE CHILD whos boss. I bet you taught him who Che was, and what he stood for. Oh no, sorry, you said "wrong answer cappie". Jee, you don't think hes going to be thinking "oh, Che admirers are really nasty people" ? ? ?

You really are retarded. I do get a little pissed off when i see people walking around advertising something they don't have a fucking clue about, but i don't give them abuse. I might be just a freak, but i EDUCATE them. Increasing knowladge in the world...

"I don't like Che being on T-shirts"

Well i don't like you f*kup

I went in a "rightist" school... Some of them called me commies, some lefists called me Che, some even called me a terrorist (I call them fascists, and they shut up immediatelly)...
Now, in the university I am just one of many people that wear Che T-shirt...
Of course... Everyone in my town call me Che now...Everyone:)

You've done nothing wrong Commandante, but the prob is that most of people think that The hammer and the sickle is as same as swastika. esp in the place i live in, they dont know a lot about Che, but they say bad things about him

the nazis in my class call other people nazis. they are not aware of the fact that they are nazis themselves. for them, mass-killing innocent people just because of their race is a very normal thing.

well...

When I wore my che-shirt at school for the first time, one guy said something like "hey, the girl´s wearing STALIN-shirt" "commie, commie!!"
I was li´l bit pissed off.....

I feel sad because nowadays they´re selling che-printed shirts as a newest trend!!

I watched tv one day and some jerk said there that being on the far left is a huge fashion these days!
I don´t like the idea....

well dunno.....
