It’s also in my experience the most terminally online leftists are the ones going online complaining about other people not voting instead of like actually doing organizing. I certainly don’t see a lot of them outside the internet or when doing things that actually matter instead of putting a piece of paper in a box thinking it changes anything.
Nope, I have to tell you flatly that it is a second special period there. For more information and context watch The War on Cuba by the Belly of the Beast Collective. Ever since the US has been buying Venezuelan oil and Trump made the blockade worse it’s been harder to do anything and 400k Cubans have emigrated every year.
Without the communist party at the helm and it’s good governance things would be so, so much worse; but things are still bad for the average person.
