Let's talk Cuba


Anyone notice how in the UN GA vote in June this year, only 2 countries voted against the ending of the illegal Cuba embargo? Even those completely unaware may still know which 2 countries were guilty of such a disgraceful act, while the rest of the *entire world* refused to condone the Cuba embargo.

So it shouldn't come as a surprise that the protests in Cuba, isn't lining up all Western media in copy-pasting US "news"reports on the issue, and are US officials completely isolated from their "allies" and the only ones polluting social media with their baseless reasons for condemning Havana. Not even the English Conservatives are joining them. This might not seem like such a big thing at first glance, but consider this: When protests occurred in Ukraine, practically all EU nations, Canada, Australia and the United States jumped the propaganda bandwagon and almost simultaneously made their conclusions; The Yanukocich government had to go and be replaced by a "free and democratic" government, practically ignoring the pesky little fact that the coup that took place in Kiev was by itself against a democratically elected government.

When protest in Belarus started, the exact same countries who stood against Ukraine repeated their same old blabbering about Belarus. Same goes for the riots in Hong Kong and the tense situation last year in Venezuela. Each situation had all Western politicians and their media start a synchronized barrage of sheer nonsense and condemnations against the countries in question. Enter Cuba 2021; Who made US political misleaders stand all alone with their little online rants against Havana. But all is not lost for imperialism, there are still some high profile, prominent well respected figures willing to support Washington:

 

To summarize, the United States "stands" with the people of Cuba. Seriously, can you imagine anything more stupefyingly shameless than hindering a nation for over 5 decades, imposing illegal sanctions, essentially trying block the island from outside contact and de facto starve the people to death and then claim to "stand" by those people ? Cuba is all things considered doing remarkably well actually, being able to not only take care of themselves but even lend a helping hand to the world. Disagree? Let's compare what Havana did for their citizens and the world during the pandemic:

I like the particular links where they blocked Cuba from receiving aid from Alibaba, yet held their little hands out and did accept it themselves. Sheer shamelessness!

Things are almost never as they seem. If you sincerely think that world powers would spend their money and resources in order to just "help" citizens from foreign nations, you might want to ask yourself why they've been neglecting and out right murdering their own citizens for decades. What are their true motives for wanting to fund foreign (terror) groups, start global confrontations and wars? I'll let you in on a little secret; It has NOTHING to do with "human rights" nor "democracy".
