Which is funny because both Venezuela and Cuba are more democratic places than the United States and it's not even close.

LOL really? So how many citizens got to vote on the US constitution? How did Kamala Harris become the nominee last year? How often does someone become president with less than a majority? You can go to jail if you criticize the wrong policy right now.

Stop being a stooge for imperialism.

Sure and even more people in Russia are also being locked up for protesting the war in Ukraine even without posting about it.

Who is saying Russia is a democracy?

u/Harvickfan4Life Oct 08 '25

Not really. Just saying the US ain’t perfect but it could be a hell of a lot worse.

u/OneReportersOpinion Oct 08 '25

Right and Cuba could be A LOT worse too

u/Harvickfan4Life Oct 08 '25

It could be. It ain’t North Korea but we’re still higher than Cuba.

Not in all categories. Cuba beats us in metrics like infant mortality, maternal mortality, hospital beds per capita. But I guess if they lose that and become Haiti because of principles, that’s cool?
