The Cuban people are revolting. No, they don't stink on ice (name that movie). They've just had all they could stand with communism. Sixty-plus years was enough for them. Cuban citizens are chanting "down with communism" and waving the recognized symbol of freedom throughout the world, the American flag. Eerily quiet at this moment of upheaval is noted socialism stan and Fidel Castro fanboi Bernie Sanders. Not a peep (as of this writing) from his multimillion-dollar hobbit hole in Vermont. It's probably best, because whenever Bernie speaks about Cuba, it's never good.
Like in 1986, when he waxed poetic about how tingly Castro's revolution made him feel.
I remember, for some reason or another, being very excited when [former Cuban dictator] Fidel Castro made the revolution in Cuba. I was a kid ... and it just seemed right and appropriate that poor people were rising up against rather ugly rich people.
We all think stupid things in our youth. I once saw a black and white picture and thought the world was actually black and white. One day, it just turned technicolor. But as I got older and learned things, I realized what an idiot I was. Not Bernie Sanders. In February 2020, during his failed presidential campaign, Berne Sanders had this to say about Castro.
We're very opposed to the authoritarian nature of Cuba, but you know, it's unfair to simply say everything is bad. You know? When Fidel Castro came into office, you know what he did? He had a massive literacy program. Is that a bad thing?
It's an irrelevant thing when Castro also starved, tortured, and murdered his people. But, you know, details.
The next day, the media tried to give him an out during a CNN town hall. "Bernie, you don't realllllly like Castro, do you?"
