"Che Guevara's Granddaughter Poses Topless for PETA"

[★Bandiera Rossa☭]

I could not find a thread for this (yes I searched) although it seems to be pretty old.. This seems like quite a new low.. This is complete bastardization of all that Che Guevara stood for and also completely stupid (Apparently a pretended homage to a revolutionary who is both loved and hated by many people is supposed to make people not want to dissect?)

Just yesterday, PETA tried to jump on the coattails of the cat killer case by pushing their anti-dissection agenda, but we've got a feeling the fallout from their latest stunt is really going to make certain corners of Miami explode with outrage.

They've convinced Lydia Guevara, granddaughter of Che and a vegetarian, to pose topless for a campaign with stylistic nods to her infamous granddad. In a preview pic obtained by El Mundo, Lydia is decked out in Che's famous red beret, a set of carrots displayed like bullets in a bandoleer covering her breasts, and holding up a fist.

The campaign, PETA's first foray into Spanish marketing, will debut later this year in South America, and an English version is planned. No word on whether they plan on putting a billboard up over Calle Ocho.

Why carrots? Was there a case involving a rabbit?

[Admiral Piett]

It doesn't show her really nude (unfortunately) just the carrot ammo slings covering her.

The issue is why the hell is PETA using a Communist Martyr to try to stop dissection? Is it really even a good idea to create a pretensive homage to Ernesto Guevara when he is hated and loved in equal amounts in Latin America?

Um, because that communist matyr has been fully marketed for decades already?

Hmmm... does anyone think it would be next Red Alert advertising picture??

[The Good]

PETA are bastardizing their own image. This is really, really low... I know they've done stuff like this in the past though, especially with Alicia Silverstone.

[Kamos]

There's some cleavage but that's it.



IF this is regarded as obscene content I'll gladly remove it.

Edit: Curses I've been beaten!

[Thanatos]

This is disgusting. I hate Che Guevara, but c'mon, this is just incredibly stupid.

Yeah. Shes not even attractive. They should find a hot grand daughter of someone dead.

[Phier]

Yeah. Shes not even attractive.

[Ulyaoth]

She really isn't.

Indeed.. Although I admire Che to a point.. he had the right objective however the means he used were far too harsh and he put too much emphasis on martyrism (showed by his quotes about not caring about dying as long as the revolution continued)

What other means could he have used to achieve the same results?

[Jabberwock]

There should be a non-profit org called "Animal Lovers Against PETA", ALAPETA. It would profile all the killings of animals under PETA.

The irony would kill me.

Isnt viewing someone as important in any way based on who their grandparents were rather against what Che was fighting for?
