I think Luna Ooi has done some videos. Vietnam has a lot of garment factories including shoes. They are often conflated with so called “sweat shops”, but the pay, hours, safety condition, age requirements etc are better. Sometimes not to western standards but improving. Frequently unionised in large ones.
There’s still some shops with shitty conditions this is often smaller scale petit bourgeois family operations.

I mean 67 out of the 82 he landed with were killed within 3 days. That plays havoc with the chain of command. Che was only meant to be the doctor for the party and had to step up.
Regardless you're also forgetting Camilo Cienfuegos who was the official second in command of Fidel's faction. His politics were pretty opaque, presumably some sort of leftist but how radical unclear. He died in a plane crash towards the end of the revolution.
Why settle for Pu Yi, he should become a Souphanouvong figure.
Starting a struggle session on whether Illinois shares a border with Canada or not (it borders lake Michigan meaning you could take a boat straight to Canada without touching the land of another state, but you pass through Michigan waters).
Definitely Fidel was kind of a Maoist in the streets (how he fought a protracted peoples war from the countryside through a dialectical relationship with the peasantry's needs) and a social democrat in the sheets (basically just wanted self determination for Cuba as a liberal democracy with welfare programs).

Yeah it's crazy, I would have thought a good 60-70?
Edit: I googled him and he does look older in some photos, but whenever he is showing emotion (excited, happy etc) he knocks decades off his appearance
