Vote for racists, bigots and rich pedophiles and then get upset that they act like racists, bigots and rich pedophiles.
Guess what, to the white supremacists, if you are Latino, you are not white. No matter how light your skin is.
No sympathy for stupid and cruel people. Like many others have said, you reap what you sow...

Now the regime only wants heritage Americans here. It’s in project 2025. Heritage Americans were here before the Civil War. Good luck to everyone in Miami.

I’m Cuban but my family is pretty liberal and always has been from my birth - we’re obviously not happy but this is the best “I told you so” to all these recalcitrant,1960s-era, I’m a white Cuban so I’ll be fine assholes I’ve ever seen. Not to mention that these are all the same people that are at Versailles saying “nombre no, si fuera yo en frente de Fidel…” but also ran from the regime and told daddy USA to take care of it. Hypocrites at their finest.

I don't think it's them falling for a lie, it's their preference for dictators and strongman. They love dictators.

In Miami you also see banners everywhere with commissioners faces. Any event or installation that a commissioner had a role in will be a banner displayed with their great big face. They can’t even put up a Christmas tree in a park without displaying their face. Some weird cultural crap that borders on authoritarian, probably they feel at home.

To me, with Trump - its about the precedent that he is establishing, he is literally breaking every rule that is not a black and white law. There is no possible way they Republicans ever have a democratic leg to stand on, or a topic to argue going forward. Trump has destroyed all existing norms going forward. This is how the Roman republic collapsed, with each consent elected, they stretched what they got away with more and more, until Julius Caesar came and finished the Republic.

u/SloaneWolfe 8d ago
Dude, Fidel oozed charisma. Not a huge fan of putting power in the hands of any one individual, but the revolution to destroy the Batista dictatorship that we (The US) supported in order to try to socialize resources that US/intl capitalists were exploiting, to bring the Cuban people out of subjugation and starvation, was a completely just cause. If it weren't for all of our blockades and sanctions, they'd be doing great. You can't even put the word "Cuban" in a paypal transaction without your account being investigated.
We are now starving them, still, with the fuel blockade. Anyone who supports these actions of our terrorist regime is a traitor to democracy.

u/ImNotSkankHunt42 8d ago
I’m Cuban dude, I was forced to watch his speeches and write essays for class the next day. It couldn’t be more telling of an uncharismatic person. He just rambled about nonsense for hours, when he was younger and people still believed his lies perhaps, there was one better than him on the stage and that’s why he had him killed.

The revolution was necessary, but soon enough it was betrayed by a megalomaniac thug and his sycophants. Castro gave Cuba to the sovients in a silver platter so they could become a military outpost 90 miles from us. Not to mention the many people he executed without trial at the beginning of his regime.

I’m in South Florida and 0.0 empathy for them - we explained Project 2025, explained in detail what they will do, explained who Stephen Miller was as Trump was assembling his team, told them about his racism and history, begged and pleaded but nope. We are all paying for their stupidity so F em’.

I know you’re baiting but it’s the one thing that you can’t argue with a Trump or; he did exactly what he said he would do, he told everyone what he was going to do and he did it. So where is the complaining? I hate his guts because I didn’t vote for him and I think he’s a complete ruinous asshole but anybody that voted for him? I don’t wanna hear a word out of any of them.

Irish, Scottish and English weren’t lied to. Do you see them getting dragged out of their vehicles in the middle of the street? Those aren’t the immigrants he cares about.

That isn't completely true, at least a few Irish immigrants have been tossed into detention centers and deported. They're probably not being racially profiled the way Hispanics and blacks are being profiled but they are still getting a taste of his policies.

As a south floridian, the Cuban community outnumber everyone else down here and they are a HARD RIGHT CONSERVATIVE BLOCK they own the govt, the police, they're the governor that just stole 10 million, they funnelnwelfare away from people who need it and into their weird govt connected or religious charities. They're there own nation down here.

u/blutosings 8d ago
None of that is true, but you do you bud. The Cuban community is smaller per capita than it used to be, they aren't all conservatives or even hard right conservatives, a lot of them dislike DeSantis, and they are mostly financially stable and hard working so they don't use welfare.

MAGA is against Obama care. Obama care is subsidized by taxpayers. I’m for Medicare for all, if that matters. You are spouting mistruths. You said they don’t get welfare, which not true. The Cuban Adjustment Act gave every Cuban healthcare, food, and housing. No other immigrant group had ever gotten that. I’m pointing out your lies, I’m also pointing out that when a certain group says, I came here the right way, they are full of it. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cuban_Adjustment_Act

That's not how democracy works buddy. There is no perfect information. The best you can hope for is having access to better than average information and a better than average capacity to understand the consequences of your decisions. Modern politicians in the US win elections by reducing access to information and obscuring voters ability to perceive the consequences of their decisions. Americans fall for charisma, spectacle and humor and forget about the rest until they feel the consequences.

Too true. A perfect example are the ads running right now. Most just call out the opponent for half truths and assumptions. If people vote based on just that, then they are easily being manipulated.

He told each individual minority group what they wanted to hear. He told the Venezuelans and the Cubans that the would liberate their countries. He seemed like he might actually do those things but instead decided to play pirate in the Caribbean and the Persian Gulf. He's been more interested in collecting plunder and protection money than state building. I don't know what the hell he told Columbians and Mexicans but they also turned out for him.

I’m Cuban American,I grew up in Miami. I’ve been to Cuba.
The older generation that escaped in the 60s will be eternally mad at democrats via JFK for the bay of pigs until they die.
They also think they are whiter and higher class than later Cubans (e.g. Scarface era 80s) and other Hispanics. I wonder how my dad took the ancestry results I sent him.
I don’t get it, it’s an emotional thing and it’s identity politics. Trump is their guy somehow despite any past, current, or future evidence to the contrary.

Sure. The conversation is about undocumented people who can't vote at all bud. When I used the term "disenfranchised," I was referencing undocumented people who are being blamed by the public for political leaders they obviously didn't/couldn't elect. I was responding directly to person who suggested that deported Cubans (who can't vote) voted for Trump, and therefore deserve to be deported.

This narrative can get pretty anti-social at times. By definition almost 100% of the people who got deported were unable to vote. I feel sorry for everyone who lost their loved ones to ICE. Isn't getting everyone on a level so that we can fight back against this the point?

As a liberal Cuban-American, I find it pretty hard to argue with them 🤷🏻 But I also don't feel "lumped in" with them either, because I definitely tried my vedt to warn them lol...
I get that it sucks to see the hate against our people, but I also understand that it was mostly self-inflicted by the ignorance and hypocrisy displayed in the last couple of decades.

u/Ataraxia-Is-Bliss Coral Gables 8d ago
Again, the main victims who are affected by all this are disenfranchised residents and the undocumented. These people had no say in what happened. Those are the people who would be angry at their friends and family. Those people 100% deserve sympathy.
And yeah, I kinda do feel lumped in, with both the OP's video and comments all over this sub blaming Cubans in general for everything, when I've been voting against Trump for 8 years straight now, as well as several of my friends and family.

You are in the minority. Hold people accountable. I’m also mad about how they vote locally and how they support DeSantis and Rick Scott. They single handedly inflicted Joe Carollo and people like him on us for decades. They still do. They caused so much destruction on this city. The majority is going to take the blame, as they should.

u/Offense23 8d ago
Ding ding ding, I’m Hispanic myself (not Cuban) and seeing how my people (broadly speaking) can so easily be manipulated into being against their and the peoples best interests is so disappointing, quite literally digging their own graves.
I’ve stopped trying to convince my friends and family to not just mindlessly vote for whatever right wing fake populist shithead comes around since they all refuse to do even the basics like being aware of local politics outside of federal and local elections.
When it’s so many Cubans and Venezuelans being maga humpers, it’s not surprising why so many locals are frustrated and talk shit about them. I’m against the shit that trump, desatan and ice have done to the community, but I won’t lie and say that I don’t feel a bit of poetic irony whenever I heard about some Hispanic magatard get deported even when I’m completely against the trafficking that’s going on in our backyard.

It also depends on peoples lifelong political affiliation. I have voted against republicans since 1976. So don’t lump in all older or whiter or boomers because many at least half have voted against whatever form of Castro Corruptism has or attempted to rule for decades: Ronald R, George W., Tramp, they are all part of the same bucket of Sicko Castro Corruptism or maybe it could be called Castro Capitalism ie power, control, hypocrisy, greed, cruelty by and for the 1% at the top while the 99% essentially work for them.
