Thoughts on people who wear Che Guevara shirts

It had been a while since I have seen someone wear one but I saw somebody wearing one tonight. I believe you can wear whatever makes you happy but I was just curious. Do they know what the man stood for? Do they wear it for what it symbolizes? Do they wear it because they saw someone else wear it?
For those that aren't aware of what I'm referring to:

Che Guevara was a marxist. I refuse to associate with people who wear that

Probably just as unaware as Guevara himself was.

I'm convinced they do not.

People wear them because it makes them feel unique.

I walked behind a guy wearing a Che shirt, walking towards a Subway sandwich shop, drinking a Starbucks coffee in Athens, Greece. Got a pic of it. Couldn't miss that.

I figured people who wore them nowadays were wearing them to be ironic and make fun of the people in the 90s that wore them.
Che reminds me of an interesting article I read several years ago.

I'd bet 99% of them are completely cluess about who he was or all the horrible shite he did.

I've come to the conclusion that the majority of people don't actually know what that means, but they have been told that it is bad and use it as an insult for people who's political ideologies do not match their own. This also goes for calling someone a socialist or communist.
I'm not personally calling you out, but I think it gets a bit overplayed. Even if it is probably appropriate in this instance.

there were these great shirts with that image and "I don't know who this guy is" above it. The Che family ended their production really quick. My husband still regrets not getting one when he saw it.

I find him interesting and have plans to read his book Diary of a Combatant, even though I don't share his views
