    Since I’ve been alive, Cuba hasn’t caused any issues. The embargo should have been lifted 20 fucking years about. The US is such a petty country.

        Cuba doesn’t really have any leverage to sanction America. But the rest of the world should be sanctioning America on their behalf.

        …wat

        “I don’t like the Cuban government” - a statement that I could understand, even if I disagree.

        “the Cuban government is fascist” - utterly nonsensical. You’re contributing to making fascism a completely meaningless word.

          It’s not fascist in the Italian fascist corporate sense, but communism certainly enforces economic subordination to the state. Cuba also checks off authoritarianism, nationalism, suppression of decent, economic regimentation, anti democratic, rejection of civil liberties - this is precisely the way that the U.S. is becoming fascist - so in this context Cuba is fascist.
