given his role in taking down Diaz and then Huerta depending on one's political views at the time, plus his (probably untrue) reputation as a robin hood alledgedly stealing from the rich and giving to the poor, cat and mouse game with Teddy Roosevelt, legendary ability to traverse the country undetected, and relationship with national icon Zapata, he's been made a household name in Mexico, some admire him, some disown him.
Typically descendants of the rich (at the time) see him as a Bandit, and descendants of the poor (at the time) see him as a Hero, but that's me generalizing, there's nuances for sure.
As the title says, controversial
But no-one can argue, an absolute unit and menace to society lol.
fun fact: we still have His Bible which has been passed down (he had one in Spanish, and one in English), we have the English Prince James Version dating 1907, for any fellow history nerds! :)
