I have never met a Cuban that likes Castro. Ive been everywhere in Miami. Hialeah, Calle 8, Homestead, Overtown and not one said they liked Castro.

This is directly copied and pasted, was said to me in a TikTok comments section. When I asked the person if they had ever been to Cuba, which is where most Cubans live… crickets

The exiled Russian count I met while hunting pheasant at my friend Lord Piddlesbury’s country manor isn’t too fond of that Lenin chap

I remember on the Cuba episode of Proles of the Round Table, whichever host it was who spent a semester there, said that the old people in Cuba revere Fidel. For the younger people, it’s not that they didn’t like Fidel just more that they kinda rolled their eyes a bit at how much the older generations venerated him.

But Che… everyone in Cuba fucking loves Che.

Nah was just touristing, the date hadn’t even crossed our minds lol

We were in Trinidad at the time, which is relatively small (40 000 people according to wikipedia), but there were thousands of people all turned out, some with floats on trucks and tractors and stuff, and lots of people waving Cuban flags and 26 Julio flags, bunch of people carrying pictures of Fidel and Che and Raul, and it all had a pretty fun and chill vibe

tbh FL is the only state I’ve ever been to that I have 0 interest in ever going again. Spent two 2 week vacations there seeing my ex (when together still) and we went all around to different places in north FL to Daytona Beach, and to Orlando and I pretty much hated all of it. I saw so many confederate flags, so much casual racism and the food was genuinely just not great almost anywhere. So in effect I will never go to Miami either. Honestly I don’t have good thoughts about Miami anyways

ALSO THE BUG PROBLEM THERE IS UNREAL. So many bugs!! Outdoor stuff was a nightmare for me

Many other places have nice beaches. The west coast has nice beaches. If you like a cooler temperature I like cape cod a lot. No need to go to Florida for beaches.
