I didn’t know until recently that the US had such an effective blockade, so enemies of the US are Cuba’s only hope, this is great to see.
I wouldn’t be surprised if China might also be supplying weapons to Cuba.
sure hope so
And what do they get in return for this?
Isolating the usa
To weaken/further humiliate the US? To market their green technology? For humanitarian purposes?
Take your pick, it’s some combination of the three.
That’s based. But didn’t Cuba basically rescind their Communist policies recently because of a lack of international support and the US sanctions having crippled the country
It’s a common misconception that socialism is an equal destribution of poverty.
They did no such thing.
They sure did. https://youtu.be/n7dvICgJYuI?t=4m17s
Yet more examples of splitting. In the span of weeks, BE was promoted to golden god of truth & righteousness, and Cuba demoted to capitalist pigs.

Next you’ll be telling me that China and Vietnam abandoned socialism because they use markets.
China abandoned socialism because they use markets.
No, but because most money, gdp (3/4), companies and work (80%) etc is fully privately owned with no state ownership at all, because the workers rights are not improving (gig economy booming, retirement going up, vacation being 5 days per decade of work experience, no practical sick leave, the second employment system), because giant companies are slapped on the wrist for transgression and personal C-levels punishments for shit they do like Pinduoduo
please stop smoking crack, it’s not good for you https://www.piie.com/research/piie-charts/2024/chinas-private-sector-has-lost-ground-state-sector-has-gained-share-among
market capitalization
gdp
You do know those are not the same? Its literally like saying that USA citizens live good life because S&P is over 50k.
Edit: and if you don’t believe me about gdp, here you have PRC press release from 3 years ago about Privately owned enterprises (POE means no government shares) http://english.scio.gov.cn/m/pressroom/2022-06/29/content_78295756.htm , ans here you have Daecheng Institute listing pure State Owned Enterperprise GDP https://zhuanlan.zhihu.com/p/720545740 at below 30%.
That sounds more like Worst Korea than China or Vietnam.
The Cuban social system is not being abandoned because they wanted to but because the US successfully imposed it on Cuba.
Cuban social system isn’t being abandoned period. Please stop spreading ultra nonsense on here.
It had to be a BadEmpanada video of course. His entire channel is dedicated to attacking other leftists for not being perfect platonic ideals of communism as he understands it. He would accuse Karl Marx of being a liberal if he lived in the same time period.
All the while he spreads imperial propaganda about China and Russia/Ukraine.
I’m also unclear on the ins and outs of market reforms in Cuba, and would like an analysis or few. In the meantime, I keep this comment in mind:
More like 75 MSS SIGINT transceivers.
How do you see the U.S. provably do all the shit like this that you think China does, rather overtly for the sake of profits for its corporations, and still think to yourself that things like this are either 1) true or 2) something that you should give a shit about anyway?
Like it’s been literally 200 years of looting the world for profits and there’s so much information known about this, like, from admission from the United states’s own historical documents (in case you’re too stupid to watch what they do and understand their motive, like a grade schooler could) but you’re all over here freaking out about Chinese solar panels spying on you, maybe, for reasons I’m sure you could never begin to articulate
I wanted to just tell you to die, so, this is me being overly polite to you
Ok and? If they still deliver megawatts of clean power to Cuba who cares if they also snitch your porn habits to Xi Jinping? What’s China gonna do with your data that’s worse than what the US is presently doing? Or did you miss the reports on how ICE is showing up at people’s homes to threaten them for anti-Trump posting?
How does one snitch their porn habits to Xi Jinping? That sounds hot.
Oh yeah. Asking for a friend who wants to help them out maneuver the US.
Personally i bought a chinese roomba and I get to feel the thrill of patriotic exhibitionism every time it sees me walk around naked
First you announce you have state secrets to any nearby stuff made in China. Anything will do, for instance your iPhone or your router or your fridge or your furniture or your hand soap. Then list off whatever you jorked to most recently. They know the older stuff already. To terminate the uplink say “Tiananmen Square” and the agent on the other side of the Great Firewall will have the connection automatically severed by his own CCP secret police monitor.
How do people survive with this much lack of critical thinking
I mean…. Even if that IS true (which like lol)…. Who gives a shit? I would rather be spied on then fucking dead?
ngl fam you probably should have left after that AI thread of yours
What do you get when you are stationed at the US embassy in Cuba and you drink too many Cuba Libres?
Havana hangover syndrome.
Y’all really believe this shit huh?
