fidel castro? from call of duty black ops?
Brandon Diaz
He was a continuing inspiration and pillar of support for Nelson Mandela throughout his life. Millions of others were inspired to rise up against their colonial oppressors because of his example. I don't know how this is wrong or debatable.
Joshua Gomez
He killed 500 billion bussiness owners. Communism isnt cool. Please watch these turning point usa videos for more information

Then why is Southern Florida filled with Cubans than ran away from Castro?

I like commie threads. I don't agree with their ideology, but the shitshow that ensues is always fun. Same with threads about Germany's post WW2 borders.

I like Holocaust denial threads for that reason. Yesterday's got over 400 replies.

Every state suppresses, they just differ on what or whom to suppress.
The bourgeoisie ran. The ones that move out now are like any other immigrant, economic immigrants.
Kevin Jackson
>What is the Philippines?
Easton Rogers
This. The immigrants who were 'fled' Cuba were just rich people that were made they couldn't exploit their workers anymore. So they went to a country that prides itself on the exploitation of its workers; America.
Ayden Parker
They are almost all descendants of elites from Batista’s regime. In other words sore losers who deserved what they got for being such parasites on the Cuban people.
If I’m going to be oppressed I’d rather at least get healthcare and education out of it.
Joshua Allen

I don´t give a fuck about his politics, what blows my mind is he fucked 35.000 women. He´s an apex spic, men like him conquered the continent, that´s why Franco loved him too
Ethan Flores
>had good ol che on the fire squads 24/7 to kill all with a different opinion Anybody who wants their country to be a colonial backwater cuck state deserves to be shut up >disuaded foreign investment causes billions of dollars from going to his people You're implying that allowing sweatshops and casinos, owned by Americans and other foreigners, would benefit cubans which is kinda ridiculous. >almost got the world into a third world war over nuclear missiles in the backyard of the superpower If the Us never did the Bay of Pigs the Cuban Missile Crisis would never have happened. How hypocritical for a country that has actually used nuclear weapons. >exiled millions Not sure it was actually millions but a large percentage of them were actually criminals and extortionist landlords.
All of this being said excesses will happen in any revolution, from the French to the American to the Cuban which is a regrettable fact of life. Castro actually wanted a friendly relationship with the US, acting as a moderate between pro independence cuban liberal and communists, but that was made impossible when the embargo happened.
Gabriel Howard
I want to fascists and the communists to get off my fucking image board and start killing eachother already. Please. Please go kill your enemies and die for your ideology, you fucking troglodytes. And once you realize it will never work because humans are too fucked up, kill yourselves.

I’ve never heard a single Cuban here in the Keys have anything good to say about Castro. Most had outright celebrations when he kicked the bucket finally.
Nathan Fisher
Not really. It was a sovereign country after the Brits fucked off.
Lincoln Thompson
The success of your parents and grandparents in the USA was 100% dependent on them having some pathetic sob story about how Castro messed up your life and the country. That doesn't mean that you have to fall for it tho
David Murphy
That guy is probably far richer than Cubans in Cuba lel
Joshua Watson
South Africa was a colonial nation. Just like Rhodesia was, and Australia, New Zealand, and the United States currently are.

No.
Cameron Price
Nah he's a "classical liberal" - as in, >society was so much better when we only cared about the welfare of rich white landowners
Chase Lee
I've been to Cuba, people don't like him. Everything you attributed to Fidel in your post Cubans attribute to Che Guevara. Every Cuban I spoke to loved Che and thought he was a great national hero. When I asked about Fidel and Raul, most of them seemed to view him like Americans view George Bush. Some people like him, but most see both Castros as corrupt and inept.
Nolan Ortiz
I'd be considered coloured in South Africa and I still stand by what I said. You can't just treat the lives of an entire group as equivalent to vermin but try telling this to a commie.
Ryan Mitchell
>>Fought against racism wherever it took root Lol, Che and Fidel both spoke at length on how retarded and lazy black people were. He also executed faggots. I don't understand why so many college students are retarded communists when they have access to such big libraries that will explain to them what a dipshit they are.
Jeremiah Morgan
I'd like to ask the ignorant commie who started this thread: Do you have any idea about what's have been the aftermath of the cuban involvement in other central and south american conflicts?
I ask it because a feature of Veeky Forums is its tremendous lack of knowledge about latin american history, regarding specially to lefty posters.
Isaac Long

Henry King
He we see the radical, with his warped perspective, pegholing his enemies. Have they presented information to identify themselves? No. Nor does the radical require it. Labels are hardly necessary when all who disagree with this sad, disgusting creature constitute an equal threat to it. To live with himself and endure the constant barrage of "alternative facts" tossed at him by saner, pragmatic minds, he copes using ancient mechanisms, evolved to deal with group disagreement in times where such disharmony could lead to life or death situations. Dehumanization enables him to hold all enemies in contempt. This visceral emotional reaction makes rejection of incoming information easier. Soon, the in group becomes the only trustworthy source of information, and decreasing scrutiny is applied to information supplied. As trust withers, all external information can be safely rejected, and radical progresses in his disease. At best, others are "misinformed" but most a simply malevolent - both deserve to be crushed with extreme prejudice, for utopia is not bought cheaply, and as education is a generational game (which naturally takes too long for the radical) the immediate purchase must be made - an option which demands blood as currency. And if you examine revolution after revolution, you will find that the radical finds no price too high. Yet for all the suffering their acts of violence incur, they only ever bring another flavor of despotism and strife. I'm a pragmatist, by the way. Liberalism is flawed. Too many assumption, not enough testable ideas. Recorded history has proven that humans are unfit to govern themselves, and so it's time for us to build something better, now that we've been afforded the opportunity by technology.
Evan Adams
>fought against racism Fidel was 100% European, both of his parents were born in Galicia in Spain. The guy he removed in the revolution was Fulgencio Batista who was of African, native American and Chinese extraction, the only non-white president in Cuban history. Fidel also considered him a mongrel and called him "negro de mierda". Make your own conclusions. I'm not saying he was some sort of Cuban KKK but to imply he was a champion of anti-racism is pure comedy.

Connor Ward
Oh you silly. I don't have mind reading powers. I have decades of psychological studies! Radicals have been studied as a psychological phenomenon for decades. If you're actually a radical, then you will exhibit those habits. Because if you didn't, you wouldn't have become radicalized. So yeah. Glad we're on the same page here. I really can "see into your mind" because radicals are predictable people being trapped and exploited in a pattern. It doesn't matter what flag they fly. They all exhibit similar behaviors. Just switch the groups around a bit.
Levi Kelly
This. The US has been meddling in Latin American affairs for far long and far more intensely than communist Cuba.
Chase Richardson
Look at these facts: - What's happening right now in Venezuela is the aftermath of decades of cuban intervention on venezuelan politics - The colombian armed conflict have lasted more than 5 decades, and the kickstart of that armed conflict was given by cubans acting as soviet proxies - The death of Che Guevara happened after the cubans sent him to start more conflicts in South America, right after they toppled the Batista dictatorship - The whole maras problem in El Salvador and the crime problem in Honduras are the aftermath of long civil wars bewteen their governments and guerrillas backed by Cuba. Right after those guerrillas made tremble the very social fabric of those countries and managed to get important victories against the states they fought, former troops just went rogue and sold themselves to drug kingpins
Whining? The only reason I'd be whining is about retards talking about what they don't know just like you're doing right now
Levi Edwards
His mother was Canarian, you mouthbreather.
Hunter Gomez
All of that is dwarfed by what America, CIA, DEA, ATF, etc... have done not only in South America, but internationally.
Ian Jones
Meanwhile the US has been toppling governments and invading Latin American countries since the 19th century.

Liam Murphy
Maduro frequently says that. Then go run to Cuba, go, leave your country.
Brandon Harris
I’m not Honduran. But I am planning on visiting Cuba as soon as I can. In all measures of development it ranks close to the most developed of its neighbours, and in some it even surpasse some western countries.
Parker Green
In no single metric Cuba surpasses any western country.
Anyway, this is not /pol/ and you must be baiting.
Robert Reed
Even the CIA lists a lower infant and child morality rate in Cuba than the US. Cuba has one of the highest rates of doctors per capita in the world.
Caleb Clark
UNESCO also lists a 99.7 literacy rate in Cuba, while estimates put the US as low as 85%.
Parker Perez
This map is bullshit.
Direct US military intervention only happened in Central America, it never extended to South America.
CIA covert activities in Chile are another matter, but even here it was an indigenous coup and not something the US actively set up.
Most of the information about US military bases and US troops is incorrect. There are no American troops deployed in Brazil or Paraguay. There are no US military bases below Manta base in Ecuador.
The map claims 56 interventions but it only lists 12, half of which are made up. For instance, the US never aided the 2002 Venezuelan coup attempt, it only hesitated in condemning it.
Central Americans are the only ones in a position to hold a legitimate, genuine grudge against the US.

Cuban guerrillas invaded Venezuela during the Raul Leoni government (democracy). Marxist ERP terrorists financied by Russia killed civilians in Argentina during the Isabel Peron government (democracy). Sendero Luminoso tried to overthrow the Peruvian government in the 1980s. (Democracy) FARC was financed by Cuba and Russia against Colombian democracy for three decades. Tupamaros started their war in Uruguay during democratic times.
Only in authoritarian states my ass.
