Are you dumb?

The asshole you’re replying is gleeful that the Cuban people are starving and dying. The dipshit believes they deserve it.

FiniteBanjo@feddit.online on 21 May 22:12 collapse

I’m not gleeful about any suffering by the Cuban people. I just rightly place the blame for it on their shitty dictatorship.

Ah yes, it’s Cuba’s fault that the US is blockading them, for the crime of… checks notes being socialist.

Socialism and Dictatorship are mutually exclusive. Cuba is being blockaded because they’ve frequently been used as a forward base for military actions by Russia and China against the USA and other nations.

Socialism and Dictatorship are mutually exclusive.

See this right here is how I know you’re stupid. Do you see Trump?

Ejército Zapatista de Liberación Nacional disagrees.

Let’s not pretend the Castros aren’t a dynasty and still control most of the islands resources. Hardly a “Workers paradise” with them running largely on the same patronage system that embrittled and collapsed the Soviets.

frongt@lemmy.zip on 22 May 17:17 collapse

The Castros aren’t in charge of government any more. Most of the major figures are dead.

It’s no worker’s utopia, sure, but it’s no hellscape either. They certainly seem to have outlasted the Soviet Union and are doing relatively well, given the circumstances.

Do you expect me to not want something that pisses off the massive militaristic expansionist dictatorships? Should I be upset if we get to off the Castro family which has ruled with an iron fist for many decades?

lol, gotcha, so you are a massive idiot.

zikzak025@lemmy.world on 21 May 22:22 collapse

Expansionist? They’re a small island nation. There’s nowhere to expand.

Russia and China, doofus. Read the headline.

They’re pro anything that attacks American foes. So 🤷

I’m sold

and it seems your buyer didn’t even needed to spend too much

It’s strange that Russia isn’t helping Cuba. It can at least send oil.

FiniteBanjo@feddit.online on 21 May 23:12 collapse

The Cuban leadership probably haven’t even called for aid. The Cuban population are nothing but sacrificial pawns to them.
