Sure, the Bay of Pigs invasion, the Cuban Missile Crisis, hundreds of assassination attempts, supporting Fulgencio Batista’s crimes, etc. all just completely harmless pranks, right? Not a single Cuban was ever harmed or murdered.
I’m pretty sure that bombing the shit out of Cuba, like many US politicians were planning to do, would have completely destroyed the economy, and you know, more importantly, would have killed a lot of innocent people.
Ugh, wealth is not the most important thing in the world especially considering that it would take over 5 earths if every human wasted as many resources as Freedom People do. That’s neither sustainable nor a smart thing to do. What Cuba instead focuses on is ensuring that every citizen has their basic necessities covered, which the US does not. Healthcare, housing, social security, … all things that are taken for granted in properly developed countries, as it should. There’s a reason the life expectancy in Cuba is superior to the US.
They do the complete opposite. They send them to other countries all over South America to help them. Ironically, in the middle of the pandemic some US politicians tried to stop this by threatening sanctions against the countries that made use of Cuba’s aid.
Defectors? Dude, your head is filled with so much propaganda shit, I don’t even know what to say. Like do some reading about migration within South America or migration laws in those countries. Just educate yourself instead of dropping some stupid Reddit one-liner.
Accusing an AnCom of being a Stalinist is definitely a sign that you’ve never bothered to read about politics or political theory from a quality source.
I would argue that feudalism is a lot more time tested than this garbage system that even in theory is so flawed that it regularly results in global economic crises. Feudalism on the other hand has been considerably more stable throughout the centuries and whether or not you are forced to serve a nobleman or a CEO is not a big difference. So, stop getting scammed and get back to the fields, peasant.
There is no stable alternative. There is always going to be class struggle. Materialist conditions and human rights must always be fought for and defended, else you’re gonna lose them.
Suppose you win 100 million. What do you actually do with it? Banks only guarantee 250,000. Do you have to invest it? Is there anywhere you can just let it sit and draw interest?
