    I don’t think so. There’s a reason most revolutionaries are untied young people.

    He still is a great theorist and someone else would’ve succeeded based on his theory. Kinda like Marx and Engels.

    If he were to have children under the “typical” nuclear family arrangement? Probably not. But should he have had a large support network (like his/his partners parents) why not? The risk to the children becomes much smaller if they lose a parent in that case. If anything, knowing you have children that need to live in the world as it is might have made him… More revolutionary? If that’s possible lol

      His wife was also a revolutionary who spent time in prison

  • I don’t think it would have mattered too much, unless he was the single parent.

    Men often abandon their kids with their wives or other families just to go do far less dangerous, dude shit. I think Che had like a total of 5 kids before he died in Bolivia and a daughter while he was in Cuba, no shade though.
