Cope, AmeriKKKa. What Cuba has done will NEVER be forgiven by them, the Revolution, in the face of the United States, in a country that was basically a private island for dirty gringos, is a MAJOR offense. It still freaks them the fuck out, because after decades of blockades, an invasion, decades of relentless smear campaigns by the Miami gusanos, the Revolution SURVIVES, there were some really hard times, especially the 90s and early 2000s, but the Revolution SURVIVES, cubans have showed great resolve to protect what they achieved, even in the hardest of times, under the threat of famine or nuclear annihilation, they stood by the Revolution.

They wont stop with the embargo or the smear campaigns (and the occassional coup and military threats) until the entire island is once again back in complete US control, but that will never happen again. The Revolution will outlive the United States itself.

I expect that “rules-based legislative process” will replace “democracy” within the next few years

In extremely propagandized countries this might be true, since people rely on said propaganda to form an opinion.

CW: transphobia, racist violence

Imagine a referendum on wether trans people should be genocided in the US, or the same issue about Rom*nja in Europe

Nothing is democratic but the dictatorship of the proletariat

Why did Cuba allow LGBTQ+ rights?

Experts say because the whole country voted on it and it passed

cuba is a truly backwards dictatorial country where the crooked government corruptly garners support by the local population by doing things that are good for them

The leaders of communist Cuba strive for power. And they do this by providing for the needs of the people.
