At what point do we realize that this is no longer about us opposing a dictatorship? We are more than happy to work with the dictatorship in Saudi Arabia, & shake hands with North Korean leaders, yet we continue this senseless attack on the Cuban people. Not the Cuban gov, the
Cuban PEOPLE. The embargo & all of these sanctions do not hurt the Cuban government & the dictatorship. They’re fine. They still have everything they need because they are in power. No, who this hurts is the Cuban people, like my aunt who has no water right now. #Cubans are
Starving, have no water for days, electricity goes out for days, meanwhile the Castro regime sits in comfort. And what is the US doing? Continuing this disgusting & cruel embargo that only oppresses those already oppressed even more. This helps no one, this won’t change the
Actions of the Cuban gov, & trying to stop them from providing medical aid to other countries right now during this pandemic is not only wrong, it is tantamount to murder. This is not the time for our stupid political games. This is not the time to pick which dictatorships we
Like & then attack others as if our hands are clean. As if we have a moral high ground. I will repeat that we are more than happy to deal with the Saudi dictatorship even after they murdered one of our reporters. I’ve had enough of this crap. 2 things can be true at once. We can
Be against the dictatorship in Cuba, & still normalize relations with the country so that the people don’t starve. To pretend that the US has done nothing to raise tensions with Cuba is an outright lie. I am not the only one that realizes this. I will not give creedence to anyone
That wants to accuse me of being a communist or loving the Castro regime. You’re wrong & you’re lying. My mother & I fled that regime, & it’s because we believe in dissent, freedom of speech, & liberty that I speak up today. Our families in Cuba are suffering, & we must fight for
This to stop. We must end the embargo & normalize relations with Cuba like we have done with so many other countries that we also don’t always agree with. These persistent attacks on #Cuba only serve to continue to prove that the US uses its power to bully smaller countries
While bending the knee to large countries that are dictatorships such as Russia, Saudi Arabia, North Korea, China, etc. Shame. @4aPeoplesParty @OurRevolutionLA @PresidenciaCuba @realDonaldTrump @BernieSanders @JoeBiden @ninaturner
