Cuba is actually cool, I’ve 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.
I’m glad you’re supportive of Cuba. Thats a good step in the right direction. But I can’t 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. I’m more critical of both countries than most people here (I won’t even BEGIN to defend population transfers in the USSR) but I would still definitely argue against the idea that those countries didnt make “life measurably better” for the majority of their citizens compared to what came before those country’s respective revolutions.
Hey! Thanks for visiting! You should check out Cuba’s family code!
