Political scientists characterize the political system of Cuba as a single-party authoritarian regime where political opposition is not permitted.[12][13][14
If this is the comment you meant, then its not really a good one, you are describing the current US ADMIN.
If you think the US is anything like cuba you guys are far more naive than I thought
I mean, Iām just listening to Cubans themselves, they call it a regime.
One of Cubaās most prominent former political prisoners, JosĆ© Daniel Ferrer GarcĆa, the founder of the opposition group Patriotic Union of Cuba (UNPACU), went into exile in Miami in October after decades of activism and multiple imprisonments.
āMost Cubans, inside and outside, want change,ā he says. āBut you cannot lead opposition inside Cuba because the regime jails any potential organiser immediately.ā
Another exiled political dissident, Luis Leonel León, Miami-based director of the Cuban Studies Institute, argues that forced exile has always been the regimeās fix ā sending generations abroad and giving rise to what he calls the āempty islandā. For many, he says, hope is so diminished that even rebelling seems pointless; the best option is to leave rather than fight.
Can you cite the oppression?
Why do I have to do all the work
Because I have seen you get free medical school there and they have cancer treatments other countries donāt.
By other countries do you mean America?
We also have access to free education: https://tafeqld.edu.au/courses/apply-and-enrol/subsidised-training/fee-free#courses
We also have universal healthcare https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Health_care_in_Australia
They also canāt afford it
while historical allies such as Russia and China no longer offer unlimited financial support due to the islandās crushing public debt (108.6% of GDP) and deficit (about 17% at its peak), as well as its record of defaults on loan repayments.
Can you cite the oppression?

Sounds like Cubans have almost made up their mind and voted with their feet:
, one in four Cubans have left in four years
Most Cubans want change. But you cannot lead opposition inside Cuba because the regime jails any potential organiser
yeah exactly, I also love their āit produces NOTHING but GARBAGEā, as if I canāt see exactly what itās producing every time I make a query which I do multiple times a day š¤Æ
thereās like 100 million+ users of ai, thatās a lot of neets
ādoesnāt workā doesnāt mean the AI literally does not produce any output or do anything, it means it has so many flaws itās just a fundamentally bad technology to be using.
thatās odd i use it daily and it works fine
Canada is run by nazi pedophiles? Damn I had no idea
Australia isnāt, when you say western governments are you meaning to say the American government?
My comment was
Same with the UK not letting the US use bases against Iran, why are western governments pussy footing around with awful regimes that kill their own citizens?
but hey while weāre here:
Political scientists characterize the political system of Cuba as a single-party authoritarian regime where political opposition is not permitted.[12][13][14] There are elections, but they are not considered democratic.[15][16] According to the V-Dem Democracy Indices, Cuba is the second least democratic country in Latin America.[17] Censorship of information (including limits to internet access) is extensive,[18][19][20] and independent journalism is repressed in Cuba;[21] Reporters Without Borders has characterized Cuba as one of the worst countries in the world for press freedom.[22][23]
Friends of yours?
western governments kill their own citizens
How many citizens has Canada killed recently? Is it upwards of 30,000?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2026_Iran_massacres
Can you point to me any recent Canadian government massacres?
Btw "pussyā as an insult has become kind of weird to me
https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/pussyfooting
Also what makes ādickā mean being rude or ādickheadā meaning acting stupid? who knows
Why smart? The goal is to get the oppressive communist regime of cuba to collapse, how is helping them going to get them further towards this goal?
Same with the UK not letting the US use bases against Iran, why are western governments pussy footing around with awful regimes that kill their own citizens?
Love a good Covert Cabal video
What is non-credible about this?
yeah, looks like lemmy didnāt get it, maybe i need to add /s or something
great! hopefully there is room for others to start to grow
Just wait till they come to Lemmy, reddit will look like a paradise
yep batteries are definitely all the rage, especially with solar farms getting fuck all out of their stuff these last few years as the daytime price keeps going negative
The first Tailem Bend solar farm was the second big solar project in South Australia, after the 220 MW Bungala solar farms near Port Augusta. Those facilities are also heavily curtailed, and Bungalaās joint owners Potentia Energy are considering a big battery at that site too.
nobody seriously is calling canadas government an authoritarian regime, please stop š
secondly because private companies are private? if you want to run a company like a democracy you can, nobody is stopping you but why would you quote a fuckstick like jd vance or his friends anyway?
Actually why are you quoting truckers and random people aligned with trump anyway? why are you so intent on making words meaningless?
what is it about cuba that you love so much? youāre canadian apparently? what is it youāre so envious of, is it the one state party you cannot criticise publicly? no freedom of the press? the crumbling infrastructure? is it the lack of a future? are you wishing you were working a job delivering pizzas just so you could earn enough money to leave?
youāre like itās all wordplay! but this is silly, when opposition is so futile people just leave (and millions of them have) itās obviously not just wordplay
