Honestly its rude to be invited by a country to meet their president who decided to respond to your criticisms of their administration only to not show up and go meet the opposition.

Being invided and then no showing shows complete disregard to basic diplomatic Etiquette since it was a mission to show solidarity against the embargo

Bonus socdems being cringe part 4.5: about another member that didnt show up to the presidential meeting

Deeply unserious people

      Second, it limits the effectiveness of our external messaging and organizing, especially in regions of the country with large Hispanic and Cuban-American populations. While it is true that there are large sections of these diaspora communities, particularly Cuban exiles, who are hardcore reactionaries and have petty-bourgeois class interests, it would be a mistake to treat these communities as monolithic or immovable.

      she’s more sympathetic to Miami gusanos than she is to Cuban revolutionaries. She wants to do tailism to appeal to gusanos and is worried that having solidarity with a socialist project would endanger her “organizing” among Cuban-Americans.

          State television revealed a document indicating San Isidro leader Luis Manuel Otero Alcántara receives monthly $1,000 payments from the National Democratic Institute, which is funded by USAID and NED.

          And there it is folks.

        Western chauvinist getting pissy that the know-nothing Cubans won’t listen to her enlightened sage advice.

      They literally just list off all of the State Department’s current baddies as ‘still bad but less bad than the US says they are’

      the threats that private business and austerity pose to the socialist economy, or the crisis of legitimacy the government faces.

      Are they talking about that weak color revolution the US tried to stage a year or two back lmao? Where like half of the media came from people in the US? And the actual march in Cuba was pitifully small?

      In my own experience organizing in Miami, there is a large presence of Cubans in every local struggle, whether it be university students and faculty walking out against our far-right state legislature’s censorship of education, or local Starbucks workers’ struggling to unionize their stores.

      Fuckin being all “yes, these former bourgeoisie who turned liberal because conservatives were too openly racist to them disadvantaged former small business owners and their children deserve to be treated well” after insulting and then openly flouting the Cuban president, you know, actual socialists.

      Pathetic or an OP.

      We should not deemphasize the role of the brutal US embargo in the country’s crises. But

      “But” in Polish means “shoe”, something that should be thrown at her.
