      Nobody said that the struggle against a despotic empire would be easy.

          A cursory investigation reveals the opposite to be true. Cuba managed to thrive despite all the efforts of US to topple communism there, and the government is broadly supported by the people. Thinking that the debate regarding who should own the means of production and whose interest they should be operated in is immaterial is an incredibly idiotic statement.

          Please spend sometime to educate yourself on the subject you’re attempting to debate instead of making a fool of yourself in public.

              In the real world people of Cuba are more satisfied with their government than Americans.

              And it’s not hard to understand why given that a quarter of the population is starving in US. 64% of Americans live hand to mouth. 37% work two full time jobs, and an average person has around 100k debt. If that’s your idea of a functioning economy you should get your head checked.

                  You want to starve poor people, so you are a murderer.

                  You can spin it however you like, but the reality is that a quarter of people in US don’t have enough food to eat. There are tent cities all across the country due to rampant homelessness. Healthcare in inaccessible and regularly bankrupts people. Cuba has none of these problems. In fact, Cuba ranks as world’s most sustainable developed country.

                  Communism works while capitalism creates failed states like the US. That’s the reality of the world.
