      Yes, the Cuban people deserve to be starved because they keep electing people we don’t like. If they’d simply elect a comprador who will give their labor and resources to foreign capitalists for pennies, Cuba could be as prosperous as Haiti.

            The dude in charge now was specifically chosen for the role by the Castro family in 2018 and has stayed in power ever since. If Cuba is on its way towards democracy then great but it has yet to be seen.

        America being bad doesn’t suddenly make militant dictatorships good.

            I am a firm believer that under competent management that Cuba would have no starvation regardless of US Blockade. It was originally an agricultural nation. They are not suffering because of some refusal to bend a knee, they’re suffering because of a continuation of the USSR style of communism plaguing their government structure.

              You support the country that bombed the biggest numbers of countries and overthrew the biggest numbers of democratically elected governments and leaders
