Well, I don't play pretend so you have my sympathy.

You don't think the Soviet system itself was to blame for any of that? All those bad things happened because of the west? Those are some industrial strength blinders you own.
We should all face the fact that none of us is perfect (Except me, of course)

For some, apparently this is a recent epiphany.

There were better ways of doing the perestroika. Demolishing the entire country and its structure wasn't one of them.

They were very lucky to get out that easily.
Usually it takes a violent revolution to escape such tyranny.
I once thought we could shake off our marxists with as little pain as the Russians, But I'm pretty sure we're too far gone now.

I think we are all aware that our shit stinks plenty.
The CIA's entire existence can probably be best described as one massive crime spree.
But when you compare it to basically anyone else in history, we're much, much better.

It's not like it was turkey being attacked. At the very latest, when the UK was being bombed the USA should have been there full-on.
During the 1930's. Hitler was popular with many in this country, including some prominent Americans. He was looked at as the solution for world's problems. Some hold that view still, heard it many times. German-Americans are the biggest ethnic group in the U.S. Many people blamed Jews and communists for trying to drag us into war. If Hitler didn't declare a war on us, I doubt we would do it.

They had any influence on Soviet government?
U.S. wasn't occupied, no one knows how many would be recruited. Some Americans traveled to Germany and fought the war on German side.
American Nazis in the 1930s—The German American Bund
In the United States, the German American Bund, an American Nazi organization, was formed in 1936, and soon grew to have tens of thousands of members.

What kind of amazes me is how many are on the side of the Cuban people all of a sudden.

I think those battle lines were drawn a long time ago.
It isn't "all of a sudden".
Remember Elian Gonzales ?
Up until two weeks ago, I would bet if Cuba or the Cubans were brought into a conversations with friends and family, no one would have cared.
I do remember that story, most people I knew did not care back then either, I know I did not.

I have lots of cuban friends.
People are tired of the misery and decay of the communism and living in the past w/o prospect for progress and a better life.
What is funny is the lack of official support from the 1st world nations when, obviously, human rights do not mean shit in cuba.

As opposed to the kid who was dragged kicking and screaming back to the communist hell hole and then raised to be a propaganda machine under threat of imprisonment ?
I'll listen to the people who are free to say what they want, not the ones who fear for their lives if they contradict the official narrative thanks.

LOL, because the Cuban community of Florida is well known for it's shortage of beautiful women ?
It's a wider problem in America.

When it comes to the fight against leftists, globally "either we hang together or we hang separately".
It was true when Franklin first uttered it, and it's true today.
If we don't help our natural allies when they are in need, we won't have any allies when our time of need comes. And it's coming very soon.
I guess they've never helped me I don't think they care about me..
I'm just going to continue being selfish and not care about what they're going through.

The ones who escaped to Florida helped us get Trump instead of Hillary in 2016.
Not all help you receive is obvious.

Lift the embargo. Shove your supreme values up your ass and let Cuban people chart their own future. These Freedom games are getting old. The world has changed and is a lot smarter. There is a huge trail of people's suffering caused by pushers of Supreme Values in Washington. It's well publicized and known in the world.

There is a huge trail of people literally risking their lives to escape communism.
It is almost as large as the trail of ones risking their lives to get here.
You can try to pretend people are better off there than here, but the bodies suggest otherwise.
