    like my guy isn't even arguing in good faith just comes out here with the bare minimum, has no idea about the historical context of the ideology he's arguing about, or even the country he's arguing about

    cuba has the most doctors per capita
    lung cancer vaccine
    covid vaccine
    diversified their economy and is no longer reliant on monoculture instituted from spanish colonialization
    ended homelessness with a gdp 100x less than the US

    "doesnt work"

    none of this would even happen in a capitalist neo-colonial country so many countries still haven't given up on their exploitative economies set up by colonists a hundred years ago .. because they cannot.

    straw man. as if one post summarizes my entire thoughts and knowledge. on a country

    there are legitimate things to criticize the government for but you are not even doing that. you have already formed your opinion, and it is based off of platitudes. you know absolutely nothing about the Cuban government

    I agree, America will soon fall but will it fall into the hand of socialism or a form of government or NATO controlled structure?

    What's up y'all, I have a couple questions:

    Can socialism be used to create a slave class?

    Does the UBI stem from Socialism?

    Thoughts on the UBI lol

    ik ur trolling but surely you must implicitly see the contradictions in a lot of capitalism unless you're totally blind

    widespread institutionalized racism, the military industrial complex, corrupt politicians in bed with corporations, etc.

    it would do yourself a disservice to not at least educate yourself on the fundamental theories behind socialism. even investment firms on wall street champion marx's economic insights

    just acknowledging the ways in which their government is superior to the US

    Socialism doesn't work and if you think it does you are so f***ing white. Also, you've never experienced socialism or known anyone who has lived under it.

    My best friend literally grew up in Cuba. Go out and meet real people. Meet people who've lived under socialism. I promise you that 90% or more of them will say that socialism doesn't work. Stop living in a fantasy world. This is a real world and extreme positions aren't something "cool" or "trendy."

    I know ppl that lived in Cuba too you're not special

    They're actually Ethiopians who were orphaned by war and adopted in Cuba

    Holy s*** I can't believe that horseshoe theory is right. You guys are as f***ing deranged as the extreme right-wingers who yell "fake news! fake news!" Just take a moment of self-reflection. PLEASE. Don't you realize the hypocrisy?

    It's actually fake news that some of the media orgs actually corrected themselves

    Like they literally used protests pictures with the June 26th flag (the pro-revolution flag) or pictures of Miami Cubans lol

    Grew up in Libya under Gaddafi. He was kinda a d*** but at the same time he was right about a lot of s*** when it came to political theory. Personally from my experience things weren’t the greatest but it certainly wasn’t hell on earth evil dictatorship that people claim it was. His policies and ideas worked in some regards and in others they didn’t it was a mixed bag. That’s my response to you saying that the people itt are white and have never met someone who lived under socialism. Most of us aren’t even Americans lmao.

    I just noticed this imbecile said "horseshoe theory" we haven’t said anything extreme that would even warrant that. Also hasn’t that s*** been disproved multiple times.

    that s*** is weak i used to actually think it made like 3-4 years ago
