  • Generally doesn’t mean “every”, it means “most”. I grew up in a Cuban community and they were mostly, “generally”, economic refugees.

    It would be physically impossible for the people I interacted with to be “generally” slavers and plantation owners. Like there aren’t enough slaves and plantations for that to be true. There aren’t enough acres in Cuba for that to be true.

    Either you don’t understand the Cuban diaspora, or you hung out with a bunch of Cuban slavers and that warped your perception.


  • What kind of fantasy bullshit are you talking about? You think every Cuban that floated to miami on some piece of garbage was some wealthy slave owner?

    Fucking sapingo over here.

    Fidel imprisoned and punished and persecuted all kinds of people, and the American sanctions made life hard. The dry foot policy made it an easy decision for many people looking for a better life.

    The main driver for their support for Trump isn’t some fear of “the revolution”, it’s that Cubans are socially conservative, so they will latch onto the Republican Party.
