...when i was 10, i had a major crush on fidel castro. while all the other girls in my class drooled over the backstreet boys, i secretly fantasized about sharing a cigar with the marxist revolutionary and prime minister of Cuba.in sixth grade i wrote a paper about why communism was beautiful. it both shocked and confused my teacher, who looked worriedly at my 10 inc sketch of castro, bordered with hearts around it.
i wanted to have his lovechild.
Yesterday i went to see the movie Che, and i realized the only thing that drew me to wanting to watch the film was the potential possibility of seeing castro on a giant screen. when i saw him my heart still felt all giddy. its strange, but fidel castro is my brad pitt.

"I find capitalism repugnant. It is filthy, it is gross, it is alienating... because it causes war, hypocrisy and competition." F.C.
Different strokes for different folks.
