He was not killed by a CIA agent. He was killed by a Bolivian army officer who volunteered to execute Che after he was caught.

The account of his assassination by one off the killers was interesting. He said Che cried and begged for his life like a woman. Che said 'I can be more valuable to you as a hostage for ransom.'
They said 'Uh, no' and then shot him.
That’s all false. There was no one present who had the power to negotiate. The CIA and the Bolivian President knew that Che had to die, and die quickly.

Hell and T-shirt shops around the world.
He hated capitalism so it's easy for like-minded folks to overlook his quirkiness for savagery and propensity for murder.

That's what my post said. You need to read it again very slowly.

Communism has resulted in the imprisonment, torture, and death of millions of innocent people. Those who are fortunate enough to escape North Korea can tell you how miserable life was there even for those who did not openly oppose the communist regime.

One of the best reads I've encountered is a book "The Fish Who Ate the Whale". Explains a lot about how Latin America became Marxist

He had a way overinflated sense of his own value.
The truth is, he was so obnoxious, Castro sent him to Bolivia pretty much knowing they’d eliminate him.

CIA says “Hola, Che’!”

54 years ago today, Che became the only good kind of communist.
"In 1967, Polish mercenary Rafal Ganowicz was asked what it felt like to take human life, "I wouldn't know, I've only ever killed Communists."

Yes, I know. But the cia was there, on the ground, orchestrating it.
Saying the cia didn’t kill Che is like saying the cia didn’t kill Pablo Escobar, he was killed by the Colombian federales. Sure, but they were funded, trained, equipped, led by the cia.
