You might come here and never read what others say, where do you get that's true of others? I read all of that.

Why are you such a fucking asshole?

[manufan10]

Check out what Fidel actually said.

The official American version is that Cuba was a democracy and a bunch of communists started a fascist communist revolution and overthrew a democracy. That grossly misrepresents the situation. Cuba was a de facto American colony and the people wanted their independence (see the info in my other posts).

The first wave of Cubans to leave Cuba were the sell-outs who were cooperating with the puppet government. Some time after the victory the revolutionaries declared themselves communists and started to expropriate private businesses in the name of the revolution. A lot of people who supported Fidel and fought with him were quite surprised by this and they were the second wave of Cubans to leave Cuba. I used to live in Miami and I got this info by talking to Cubans.

There's a theory that during the revolution they weren't planning to become communists after the victory. The theory is that they needed Soviet support to keep the Americans from taking back their colony and the Soviets put the condition that they become communists on their giving them their support. I'm not in a position to know if this is true but it wouldn't surprise me.

I recommend this book...
https://www.amazon.com/Cuba-Beginners-Rius-Eduardo-del/dp/0873481283

...as it's consistent with what Cubans have told me.

This book is good too.

I have never understood that. It takes how many seconds to read any post here? I have those I won't respond to because they get a nut when I do, but I do read why they get ignored.

If you post on a SPORTS forum, and never talk about SPORTS. You're dead to me...

Sorry that's just how I feel. Seriously have you ever seen Cosmored post about the NBA, NFL, College Football, Soccer......anything? It's always dumb shit like that. Moon Landings...censorship on the internet....etc. If he threw in the occasional post about Russel Wilson or Kobe....maybe it's pay attention to the things he posts. Until then...I will not read his conspiracy theory shit. I won't do it.

I get the fact most people are pricks ESPECIALLY in hiding, I actually expect it. So anyone who does this is seeing everyone at their worst, so I really don't expect much out of others.

I follow track, football, music, have books, have a lot of experience, but here....YA GOOGLED THAT....hahahaha!!! Fuck the fact I;ve only been into that stuff for over 50 years.

You actually do talk sports though. That's why I don't ignore everything you post.

If it was the other way around I would still hold the same position I do now. If I posted on "unexplained-mysteries.com" everyday and all you did was talk sports....I would't take you serious either.

:lol Cosmo

The thing is nobody really cares what you do or don't do, why would they? Does it really matter?

I realize nobody "here" can talk about those things I find interesting,I still have fun with it.

[TDMVPDPOY]

if u made it out and never remitted a single dollar like buying up cheap dirt land/estate then u fail when the price is still very fkn low, when cuba starts to open up its economy and emerging develop, expect prices to sky rocket...

ur only fear is losing it all cause u dont know what sort of property rights is for non-cubans

[Joseph Kony]

cool story faggot

[DAF86]

cool story faggot

Not much of a story. That's what tought in every country except the US, tbh. :lol

[monosylab1k]

In a case such as this we have to separate the truth from the BS and then look at the big picture. I know there's stuff I still don't know and I'll modify my stand if I get some new info.

Here's some more info on Cuba.
https://i.makeagif.com/media/4-27-2016/KYtTyS.gif


The absolute worst place to get info is the American media. Here's some info on the American media from another thread.
https://i.makeagif.com/media/4-27-2016/KYtTyS.gif

Nowadays only people such as these...
https://i.makeagif.com/media/4-27-2016/KYtTyS.gif

...simply listen to the American media and base their opinions on it.


Just ignore the shills who post here. They're getting paid.
https://i.makeagif.com/media/4-27-2016/KYtTyS.gif


A lot of Cubans come to live in Madrid where I live an I hear stories about fascism in Cuba. Here's one story.
In Cuba it's against the law to use your home as a mini restaurant for tourists to make some extra money which is understandable in communism. An effect of that is that people are afraid to invite foreign friends over for dinner as the neighbors may call the police and say that they're operating a clandistine resraurant for foreigners. I hear that when this situation comes up, the courts always find the people guilty of operating a clandistine restaurant when in most cases they've only invites some foreign friends over for dinner.

I heard about some african medical students studying in Cuba who were overheard criticizing the political system. They were taken to the airport and sent back to Africa in the middle of their studies.

Yes there is fascism in Cuba but that doesn't change the fact that it used to be a de facto American colony whose resources were being stolen by American companies and the revolution put a stop to that. That's what the revolutionaries were fighting against. They weren't thinking about communism; that was a surprise that came after the success of the revolution and that's why a lot of revolutionaries left after the victory. When the people of a colony manage to oust the power that was enslaving their country, sometimes the main power group during the war simpy takes over the government and stays in power https://i.makeagif.com/media/4-27-2016/KYtTyS.gifand there's a government that could never get elected in power. Maybe that wouldn't have happened if the country had never been a colony in the first place.

The official American version which says that simplisticly says that Cuba was a democracy and everything was fine and a bunch of communists changed it from good to bad is simplistic and misleading. The American companies that lost what they used to have would like to get it back. https://i.makeagif.com/media/4-27-2016/KYtTyS.gifThe Cubans had better be careful.

cool

Take the time to watch all of it. Cuba freed itself from that.

I'll tell another story I heard about Cuba.

About fifteen years ago I spoke to a Spaniard who'd flown to Cuba. She said that while flying over Cuba she saw that a lot of fields were not being used to grow anything. They were empty. She told me that she thought that was kind of stupid seeing that there were food shortages in Cuba. A year or so later I had the opportunity to talk to a Cuban who'd just arrived in Spain. I told her that story and she told me that Cuba wanted to use that land but they couldn't get the necessary fertilizer because of the US-imposed economic blockade.

That's what the US government does. It sabotages the Cuban system so that it doesn't work and then Americans read that the Cuban system doesn't work because it's inherently flawed.

As much shit as you post you could have supplied them for a century.
