I'm NOT an admirer of Che Guevara but I guess you don't understand
history neither war.  Every soldier is a serial killer, do you say we
have to ban every image or icon of a soldier?  A war is nothing more
than a killing in mass, do you say we have to ban every image or icon of
guns and military stuff?  Do you think that the presidents and soldiers
you admire NEVER kill anybody?  Really you do?  Think it again.  Every
president and every soldier who has been envolved in a war have blood in
their hands. 
Read and LEARN about history.  It will wide your sight and your points
of view.  And then, may be, you will be able to distinguish between a
serial killer and a common soldier, and between dictator and a person
with wrong ideas.


Best wishes
Sylvia

So, besides I think the Israel government is just fighting for the

I think you Che defenders are the ones who don't think about hurting
other people. It would be better if this wallpaper was just deleted,
and there was neither apologies to the left nor right political
conditions.


Remember, it doesn't matter who is the final user of gnome, it ought
be open for every single kind of people.

Hi:


After reading this email, it is really difficoult to me not to respond
it.


First, Thanks Thiago for your words I totally agree with you.


Second, Let's try to keep this mailing list as a what it is now, a
nice space of sharing great things. So please, before writing think
twice if people would feel offended by your words, because I am sure
many people feel this way now. So please be respectful, a lot of
people might think different than you.


Last, get informed before talking. There are a lot of books,
documentaries, movies. Maybe what people says it is not true, just
check it.
(Movies: Che 1 and Che 2, Documentaries: about Cuban revolution, books
like reminiscence of the Cuban revolution war) I have learned a lot of
what was happening before and after the revolution. After learning
that  I have become a great admirer of el che Guevara, I am sure you
will understand more things if too.
   


Thanks,


Silvina

        I was really reluctant to answer you, but in the end, here we
        go.
        
        First of all, I think your comment totally misplaced...
        The create an analogy between Adolf Hitler and Ernesto Guevara
        is really going too far.
        
        I actually don't give a shit to the image (even that is pretty
        well made) but if someone wanted to share the ideology of the
        Cuban (and latin-american) revolution, a thing that I don't
        expect you to understand, I don't see a good reason for not
        doing it.
        
        Otherwise then the way you put it, and knowing that you
        certainly comes from a country that already wen't to a war,
        the history is and has always been told by those who won the
        wars. I don't expect you to call your president or war heroes
        "serial killers", "monsters" or "murderers". In fact, we give
        them glory and eternity, over the blood they trow and lives
        they took.
        
        A revolution is not made by raising flowers, unfortunately.
        And the image of Guevara is and will always be, the icon of
        the day the weak fought the strong and won. Won the right to
        chose their own destiny. What you call
        "socialism totalitarianism" (which is itself a really weird
        _expression_) were once called "free world" even that today this
        old dream is decaying.
        
        
        I really think you, one day, will be able to think from out of
        the box and see that the world where you live is bigger and
        has more people and cultures that you can imagine, so, respect
        them.
        
        
        Sorry for the weird English, I come from a weird Latin world.

                Hello all.
                
                First of all let me congratulate to all of you who
                make possible this
                great project, Gnome.
                
                I'm just a user and I would never have thought of
                finding myself
                writing to the gnome community, but sadly I have found
                myself morally
                forced to do so.
                
                A few minutes ago I was changing the background of my
                desktop and
                clicked on the link to the backgrounds page in
                art.gnome site. Then,
                in page #6 I find a picture titled "Hasta
                siempre" (forever!) of
                Ernesto "Che" Guevara, one of worst sadistic serial
                killers known in
                the whole history of mankind and turned into one of
                the biggest icons
                of socialist totalitarianism.
                
                Let me tell you that watching "that thing" have made
                me feel very sad,
                as I believed and still believe that Gnome is not the
                place for that
                kind of stuff, the same way that Gnome is not the
                place for showing
                pictures of Adolf Hitler, Joseph Stalin, Pol Pot,
                Fidel Castro or any
                kind of monsters like these ones, and the same way
                Gnome is not the
                place for finding any type of apology of criminal
                ideologies.
                
                I'm sorry I'm writing to all of you but first, I have
                not found any
                e-mail address of administrators of gnome, an second,
                Gnome is a
                community and as member of this community (as user and
                occasional bug
                reporter) I think I have the right to share this
                thoughts with all of
                you.
                
                Please, you know the whole world is driving madder and
                madder in these
                chaotic times of crisis, but I believe it is not so
                difficult to just
                have a little of dignity, common sense and decency. In
                my opinion that
                image of Ernesto "Che" Guevara and the like should not
                be part of this
                great project, Gnome. I'm not asking for any kind of
                censorship or
                political correctness, but just a sense of morality
                and respect in the
                things we do.

I agree that so strongly controversial issues should not find their way into
the main source of wallpapers for gnome desktops.
It doesn't matter who is right (how old are we?!), It simply isn't the right
place.
If someone want to promote an ideology, they should start their own website
and community, and they can invite people to join them.

Hi,
I read along here from Germany. I find it incredible how they represent Hitler, who is a huge criminals. It is also double murder or murder if I order you run the command because he refused soldier is shot, not the general

You are very arrogant here, because I am also a Chue gevara has no business here, and that because it tackles the political issues of wrong is better in your little pictures that you have been doing very well.
Did I leave the list, thanks,
this conversation about criminals and war is very daring
on this basis is now so weitergemacht still.

It is a pity that I leave now so out of this list must, but I'm wrong here!
