Cuba is actually cool, Iโve thought that for a long time. Of all the Communists I think Castro did it best, and he made life measurably better for Cubans. I cannot say the same about the Soviet Union or the PRC.
Iโm glad youโre supportive of Cuba. Thats a good step in the right direction. But I canโt agree with you about the USSR or PRC because while they both made humongous missteps quality of life on average measurably improved for citizens of both countries, and there are many statistics that show that. Iโm more critical of both countries than most people here (I wonโt even BEGIN to defend population transfers in the USSR) but I would still definitely argue against the idea that those countries didnt make โlife measurably betterโ for the majority of their citizens compared to what came before those countryโs respective revolutions.
