PHAN WHO'S LATINA/LATINO AYE

me to

Same

Same

As a brazilian, i usually don't care too much about what yankes think or don't about Latin America, but they didn't know el Chavo, is an heresy! For Christ Sake, what mexicans are doing in US that didn't show Chespirito for them?

Same Here

Jejune Brozv I can't tell if you're trolling or serious right now. I just can't belive what you said.

Jejune Brozv What the fuck are you smoking son? He was at the revolution of Cuba too, along with Cienfuegos, Guevara was as important as Castro during the war. Same with the he did traveling in South America. He became a symbol for the comunist propaganda, sure, and many "fans" has inflated him more than he deserve, yeah. But you have gone waaay out of point with your answer. Again, I can't tell if you're a really good troll or you are being serious.

Jejune Brozv A-are you even reading? I just said, Cienfuegos, Guevara and Castro were equally important in their war time and should be recognized as such instead of "nothing important to see here, not even to mention in books" as you said in your first post. And I also implied that is wrong to inflate Guevara's memory to more than just a man. Maybe in your country he is nothing more than a symbol that leftys can gravitate around. But in my country the three are mentioned a lot because mexicans helped Cubans in their war time. The "why is Che fucking everywhere" thing, has a lot to do with he becoming a symbol of "rebellion" that a lot of latin americans could relate to at those crazy times, specially in México that was still recovering from their own revolution. Guevara became a symbol for many people, and as every symbol, it could be exploted and capitalized, his image, was perverted and his ideals (wich is perfectly ok to disagree with, personally I do) forgotten with each passing generation, something that happens all the time. To my understanding, the propaganda was usefull to Castro's regime, so he played his cards right and let it slide, despite ending in bad terms with his former companions and, Che's merchandise prohibited in Cuba. >Go back to smoke your cuban cigars Why are people on this me vs you set of thinking? Is seriously the idea of a person saying that Guevara is relevant in Cuba's history and should be mentioned in US history books as important as Castro during the war time, instead of a movie prop and "just a guy who did not do much in the end" a crazy idea? Your first comment oversimplifies an historical event to the point that it make it seems like Castro did all the job. He changed the country, yes, but he didn't make it alone. And that's the whole point. There's the conflict, and then the reconstruction of the country. Castro and Guevara didn't agreed on the way to work at the post-war, so they parted ways. Does that mean Guevara should be erased from the armed conflict? No. Does it make his actions in the war are any less important? No. Should people stop over-hyping his image and putting his face everywhere? Yes. Should people stop exploting his memory, erasing his flaws as a human being? Yes. To reiterate my point. He was an important human being, key figure during the armed conflict in Cuba, relevant as Fidel, Raul, Camilo and Almeida, and should be mentioned as such in US (and world) history books that speak of the matter. The current use / explotation of his image I don't agree with because people tend to forget his human side making him flawless, wich he was not. Are you understanding what I'm saying?

Exactly I truly belive that El Che Guevara is overestimated. (I'm South American by the way)

Jesús Muñoz No puedo creer lo que acabo de leer

+Tobias Ommer You gotta know... but most Germans have no clue who Che was. Ihr denkt sogar, dass er eigentlich „Che" hiess... und dass er ein Kubaner war.... im Ernst??

+Tobias Ommer same

Guevara was Argentinian. I think you got him mixed up with Castro.

+Diauts he was part of the Cuban revolution, hence why he said Cuba

Lauralaey5 Correct. Neither did I say his name was actually Che.

@El Padre con Verga Larga Hispanic.

+ALEX Galarza im peruvian and i dont give a fucking shit

+Albert Mora lol im peruvian and your assumption is incorrect, most peruvians are mostly amerindians and mestizos

+ALEX Galarza they really dont even know where is peru

+Albert Mora Well well well Europeans countries are mestizos countries too romans，greeks，slavs，alamans，franks，celts，lombards，vikings，godos，arabs，fenicious，all of them mixed and the result is the europeans of today ;)

Keh wrong, the word mestizo was created by the spaniards, and it referred to people with spanish and amerindian blood only. Europeans are not mestizo, they may be mixed, but not mestizo

+John Jacob also gringos seem to be really afraid of communism, meanwhile most latino countries at least have a communist party, even if nobody likes it. Do they know Che Guevara is like the biggest communist icon since, like, what? Lenin? Marx?

+Shireke01 Che Guevara is one of the more recognized world communist icons, but the teachings he left us, are worthless compared to what they have achieved theorize Marx, Lenin and Trotsky.

That's how I feel when I see girls my age wear Marilyn Monroe shirts.

i know I was expecting that tho, el che was a huge part in my inclusion to politics and them not knowing who he was is kinda what I was expecting but wearing shirts with his face not knowing who he is or what has he done is almost disrespectful

I facepalm at all the ignorant and naive suburban teenagers who most likey listen to Rage Against the Machine don't know the first thing about Che Guevara

Indeed.

I know

True

or even their own history for that matter, they only live for fucking work, video games, and getting fat

You mean they don't care about culture or history... Not even they're own history I think.

hahahahaha don't worry, I know who he is.... he sells tacos in a corner, doesn't he?

+Cake Kyo yes he does

+Mariana Dominguez hahaaah I knew it xD

+Cake Kyo better chupate esta 😂

+Kevin Gonzalez jajajajajaja siiii

IKR!!!!

Selena is American lol,

***** well not a lot of american white people know about her

Hermosa Rosa you be suprised that some people do

In my opinion Main land Latin America has more prominent Musical Figures like Julieta Venegas, Marco Antonio Solis, Alejandro Fernandez Juan Gabriel, Soda Stereo, Jaguares, Paquita La del Barrio Cafe Tacvba, The list goes on lol, Selena is incredible! but there is much more to offer from actual Latin America

Gaboxxy maybe never

Yeah, I am brazilian but I am 100% white =/

that was a crappy picture they put of her

+Felipe Bonucci You should check out our Signs You're Brazilian video kzfaq.info/get/bejne/l56ViMd71J3MmKs.html.

+Felipe Bonucci oh come, how come you do not know Alberto Fujimori? He ran away to Japan (he had double citizenship) because of a corruption scandal. Yeah, it seems latin american society corrupts spanish descendants, african descendants, japanese descendants, german descendants... :( And I guess most brazilians with minimal education can recognize Cristina Kirchner.

+FLAMA Done. And the signs were spot on. Hahaha

+rogerpenna Yeah, I researched him after the video. That's why I felt so bad.

+Felipe Bonucci I don't know Don Francisco, but i know about Celia Cruz, is not music to be heard in my country (Argentina), but I know her country, occupation and some songs.

but he was a good president

Yes he was, but then he did screw it :/

no he wasnt ..he is a criminal!

Metieron a Cristina así que

She's the one that first said la negra tiene tumbao.

ANGRYmuffin9000 not in the least lol

i think becouse he`s famous and he was president in my country for 10 years with two nationalities:japanese and peruvian, would be a asian or latino president in us? most problably not and that is curious

You're from Perú? Hola! c:

***** and issue called racism

***** What do you mean barely? Obama won by a significant margin both times

ialeixo84 There are a lot of asians in the US, but none of them is president.

Shireke01 yo no me reiría tanto , this is kind of racism a los mexicanos

@@mireiapedregosadiaz9912 porque si es chileno

+sofía dolores Well, compare her to the joke that Macri is now. By the way, I don't really understand why you say she was a joke, something she wasn't is a joke. You may disagree with her, but something she had was courage lmao.

+Gaspoo AMEN omg ✌✌✌

+sofía dolores it's been like two months and ppl are already going "yeah i didnt vote for macri" when they proudly said they did after the elections so idk i think macri is even worse :^)

+sofía dolores me causa q son latinos y se hablan en ingles

Camii Camila Bueno, como que estamos en un video en inglés, es normal que hablemos en inglés en los comentarios :B

She looked awkward, but at least she was not that disrespectful as the men

+Takador ¿Por qué lo escribiste en dos idiomas? xD

Porque puedo

Takador Obviamente :B, pero no tiene mucho sentido nomás.

it makes all the sense, thank you very much

+Takador EX-Presidenta, acordate del EX pls

+Camila Riquero El Chavo nada mas es conocido en America Latina.

+Camila Riquero hay que ser bien huevon para pensar eso jaja

+Pitt-Zahut pero no tiene mucho exito afuera de latinoamerica porque es muy dificil traducir los chistes. Funciona en castellano y portugues, y nada mas.

+Pitt-Zahut Los programas de Chespirito moldearon la comedia puertorriqueña en casi su totalidad y honestamente los programas hecho por Chespirito siguen siendo de los más graciosos del mundo junto a Cantinflas.Por lo menos en la comunidad hispana.

***** Nunca estubo ahy me refiero a que el sirvió como inspiración para la evolucion de la comedia de puerto rico en los 80 y los 90

Marina P o chespirito!

Marina P No es precisamente un país donde adoren las ideologías por las que peleó el che. dudo que lo enseñen en los colegios

Bueno, pero por sus grandes hazañas debería ser mundialmente reconocido!!

Marina P T-SHIRTS

Dominic Rodriguez Chug hazañas? Como qué? Ayudar a instaurar una dictadura?

+Seth Hultkrantz wuajajaja weena jaja,

+Seth Hultkrantz F*ck off you ignorant piece of sh*t.

But feels dissapointing to see A. Fujimori as an Icon, thanks god he is in prison now.

***** Too random/uninteresting to fake.

Steve Last Name It is actually interesting because he was a repressive dictator back then, most of Perú hates him for the crimes against human rights during his goverment.

Megan Gutierrez Farfan Oh, I didn't know. Thanks for the info!

Alejandra Fernandez eres Peruana?! :P

everybody hates him.

Si el vídeo hubiese sido "Latino Icons According to Germans" lo reconocerían fácilmente,ya que el Che causó impacto revolucionario en la época de la caída del muro de Berlín.Pero no.estamos hablando de "americans"no me sorprende...de seguro algunos deben tener la foto del Che en sus casas,solo porque es "una foto muy famosa" triste pero cierto...

+Laut F Errotabere Tienes que recordar que ellos viven en el país más anti-comunista del mundo. No tienen idea de la historia de Latinoamérica y los pocos que son capaces de identificar al Che Gy¿uevara piensan que es un "dictador comunista asesino", o sea, su nivel de ignorancia es enorme. Es un país muy facho, como decimos en Chile.

+Latinoamerica TranceFamily Mentira vil!! Yo vivo en Alemania y me encanta preguntar a la gente si saben de dónde era el Che: todos me dicen que de Cuba! Cuando les pregunto su nombre, me dicen que se llamaba "Che"!! No todos, obvio lo universitarios de las ramas de las ciencias sociales sí tienen una idea de quien es.. el resto ni al caso!!

TheWarmMe A eso me refiero.Hago una referencia al que utiliza su imagen con conocimiento, y al que las utiliza sin el,solo la usan por ser imagen conocida.Dando un ejemplo bizarro,alguien que escuche Miranda y tenga una remera de The Beatles,por así decirlo.No comparemos la ignorancia yanqui con la Alemana.Conocer al Che no es para cualquiera.

A lo que voy es que es la misma mierda. La gente en Alemania NO sabe que el Che era argentino! Todos piensan que era un tipo que más o menos relacionan con Cuba cuyo nombre creen que realmente era CHE y no que era sólo el apodo! Al final, que no sepan nada de él (los "yanquis") a que sepan algo totalmente incorrecto (alemanes) es la misma mierda. Y ni qué decir que por ejemplo en la ciudad de Colonia hay no sé cuántos bares que se llaman "Cuba bar" y "che" y tontería y media y ni así saben quién fue, qué hizo y por qué, a menos que sean universitarios sociales. Al igual que en Estados Unidos, los universitarios lo saben. No satanicemos a los "yanquis" ni hagamos mejores a los alemanes.

+Priss. C.a.r.p LOL fucking ignorant man

myjfff No, seriously, no one in Argentina knows who the fuck is he... And, by the way, i'm a woman. Regards!!

Priss. C.a.r.p fucking ignorant woman.

myjfff it's ok. Whatever.... I don't care...

Y yo te hablo en inglés, jajaja. Ok, no, flaco, yo hablo en serio, acá nadie lo conoce. Acaso está mal no conocerlo? Es un délito, un pecado? Acá no existen esos canales donde trasmiten esos tipos de programas... Qué se yo...

Fer11D asi son de idiotas creelo o no.... (mexico-estadounidense)

***** el chavo was transmitted on the whole continent. The only one country who didn't show it was Cuba. And it's one of the best TV shows ever made. That's why I'm surprised. And no, I'm not Mexican XD. Btw don't get offense.

Fer11D Im also argentinian, maybe is understanble that they didnt knew about don francisco, the last guy (i dont know about him eaither), celia cruz and el chavo. but Guevara... cmon Guevara is a huge character, with lot of history involved, its kinda IGNORANT if you dont know about him, its something like if i wouldnt know about Malcom X, Martin Luther King or The Black Panthers, people who faught againts the opretion and for the human rights. I didnt had those guys in my books when i was in highschool, seriusly guys apply your self!!! another thing guys, when ppl say "LATIN AMERICAN" its mean everyone from mexico to argentina, but when ppl say "SOUTHAMERICAN" its mean everyone from venezuela to argentina.

Fer11D me cague de la risa cuando dijieron que se veia annoying jajajaja toda la razon

Guys he's not Asian he's fully Peruvian it's just that a lot of ecuadorian and Peruvian ppl have an Asian look to there eyes cause of the strong sub there so it just runs down the family

How?

So ignorant it hurts....

Jejune Brozv also, saying Alberto Fujimori, is like saying sushi burritos. :P

Jejune Brozv Yeah i know that dude, I was just joking, people down here in Mexico usually just call them burros. But having a Japanese/Peruvian present is certainly something different.

Jejune Brozv As a person currrently living in a latin american country, I am well aware of the multicultural diversity present in our continent. My point was that even though a nation may have a certain population of people of a certain ethnicity, a countries typical citizen is always portrayed with a certain stereotype, that said, having a national icon with physical traits opposite of said stereotype gives off a reaction of intrigue to people not familiar with said icon or culture.

I think that having an Asian/American icon in Latin America is quite cool, maybe in the late future it will become a more prominent thing.

They dont know who is Che Guevara, and USA have alot of troubles with Cuba for god, but is like say it to wall, you probably dont know why Che Guevara is referred to Cuba

+Dany Zone muy de acuerdo .. quede sorprendida! :O

+Dany Zone Calculo Diferencial

Seth Hultkrantz gracias profesor.

Dany Zone de nada

+Alx8282 JAJAJAJA

Wuajaja. Y no es chiste la wea

robando de la teleton xd

A Celia Cruz se le conoce más por sus canciones que por el nombre.

celia cruz es una buena cantante, aunqe no se si haci era habitualmente

Me too and I'm from Brazil!!

No sabes quien es el Chavo pelotudo!

No in fact anyone here , consider Walther Mercado a superstar , neither the Presidents WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU? C'mon WHY the fucking presidents will be a superstar??????, only YOU americans consider that kind of people a "superstar" but is because you are so ignorant and dumbasss that even CHOOSE personalities wrong, so i guess is normal that americans have the stupidness in their blood gp5

erick6e Disculpa, I'm very sorry for your poor ignorant self generalizing a whole group of people like that.Si va a usar nuestro lenguaje para decir cosas ofensivas porfabor aprenda a decirlas bien dichas.BTW your guess is wrong.

Btw who cares...Btw

gp5 Exactly he is not a super star he is a super marica!! LOL.

+gp5 fine but first STOP the LATIN BULLSHIT WE ARE HISPAN NEVER LATINO

all latin america knows el chavo, i mean, that program was just awesome

Don't call him El Chavo, his name is and forever will be Chaves

+rogerpenna If you don't know who Don Francisco is, then I supposed you don't live in the USA.

+Lucasp110 Maybe to Portuguese speaking people, but to us who watched the original Spanish version he will always be El Chavo

+Lucasp110 what the hell dude

CRISTINA BITCHNER TJAKGKWKG OMG OMG I CAN'T

Bolañoz significa cara com o saco grande, porque vc chamo Chaves de "Big Balled dude!?" porque?

H

I honestly thought he was Carolina Herrera

Si, yo también me sentí ofendido...mas con la comparación con las estúpida de Nicki Minaj

Israel Segura Gonzalez Pero bueno que se hace, Celia es una diosa, es una lastima que alla la vean como una version de "Nicki Minaj".

When I was a kid, I just thought Celia Cruz was a weird old lady with crazy hair. It wasn't until many years later that I discovered how wonderful her music is!

Yeah, I don't know too much about Fujimori, but I know that he is not very well-liked in Peru :(

He said Japanese is not a country, it's a Japanese term.

Melissa Bellais sí, jajajjajajaja... soy chilena pero tengo montones de amigas argentinas y sé que la odian, así que me hizo gracia el comentario "looks like a Kardashian mother", XD

Bueno Luz .María​ yo soy venezolana y nosotros ODIAMOS todo lo que se parezca a Chávez y sus compinches...

Celia Cruz era cubana.
