Thousands of Cubans took to the streets in multiple Cuban cities on Sunday to protest its communist dictatorship and demand its end.
CBS Miami reports that civil unrest has boiled over due to the COVID-19 pandemic, with protestors chanting "we are not afraid" as they called for more food and vaccines.
"We are not going to hand over the sovereignty or the independence of the people," said Cuban President Miguel Diaz-Canel in an address to his citizens. "There are many revolutionaries in this country who are willing to give our lives, we are willing to do anything, and we will be in the streets fighting."

Communism as it turns out, sucks.

Also, the American media considers freedom to mean anti-government.

I’ll leave this here:

Peaceful protests are growing in #Cuba as the Cuban people exercise their right to peaceful assembly to express concern about rising COVID cases/deaths & medicine shortages. We commend the numerous efforts of the Cuban people mobilizing donations to help neighbors in need.

I thought Cuba was heaven on earth. That's what I've been told by a few people who are of the progressive persuasion. They've told me the best thing to ever happen there was that the US hasn't been able to implement our racist and unfair policies in place there.

It is crazy that people are fed up with not having enough of anything for decades and start marching in protest that the president of the country IMMEDIATELY jumps to violence and killing.

Talk about zero to one hundred.

I’m sure you have been there 777. Would love to explore Cuba. The fishing is great.
I knew people that lived there that farmed sugar cane for United Fruit pre-Castro.

Biden will be long gone before America gets to the point of overthrowing our soon to be communist dictatorship.
