I also think a lot of people who say "People who wear Che shirts don't even know who he is or what he stood for" also don't know who he is and what he stood for. It's kinda become a talking point where people regurgitate a line or two that they've heard, but don't actually know anything.

I've never heard that, but several women I know have told me that in self-defense seminars they're told to hoist a swastika when they're getting raped.

Only if their rapist is Jewish.

WW2. Prior to the attack on pearl harbour. Lots of Americans were sympathetic.
