Chief of Staff at a victims rights law firm and OnlyFans creator over here. It IS fab. 💁🏻♀️
I love it when people have a really intense job like lawyer, investment banker, et al. But then they’re insane online, or do onlyfans, or like have a drinking problem. I think it’s fab

My main problem with this line of argument, which I've grown up hearing for decades, is that activists are not only quite selective about what they talk about but *also* actively diminish valid criticisms, white wash problems, or claim things even Cubans don't privately argue
I don't think these critiques give activists enough credit. Many surely understand that the Cuban govt. is also complicit but see it as their primary role, as U.S. citizens and voters, to focus on the actions of the govt. over which they have political leverage and responsibility

Hasan traveled to Cuba to be a puppet of the dictatorship. Literally using his platform to spread misinformation on lives. It's disgusting and anyone who supports the regime doesn't give a fuck about human rights.
They're livid that independent media figures like Hasan traveled to Cuba to report directly on what's happening and expose the amount of blatant propaganda in the US media ecosystem. This is why independent media/journalism that challenges MSM narratives is so crucial

A foreigner who will leave after a few days romanticizing the experience of a prolonged general blackout, as millions of residents' lives are reduced to a neverending struggle to keep going just one more day, really does make me see red. That and the fucking word "resilience"
With Havana plunged into total darkness there's a strange beauty and resilience to now being able to see all the stars shine down.

Ante los micrófonos rechazan "la política de asfixia" contra la Isla y, sin embargo, abrazan a quienes nos amordazan, se toman fotos con quienes nos reprimen y sonríen junto a los que destruyen nuestra nación, haciendo emigrar a nuestros hijos y ahogando nuestra esperanza.

And the doctors they send earn a tiny fraction of what the Cuban gov gets.

It's a slap in the face to the Cuban people to say it's a "problem" to separate support for the people vs the state. It's disgusting to see people consistently promote political views & ideology over listening to the human beings suffering at the hands of both governments

I fully agree the embargo is both bad, primarily impacts everyday civilians, and that Trump's oil blockade at present is killing people (again, mostly civilians). Have advocated its end for decades. It's also just flatly not true Cuba's system works well

Slavery was abolished in Cuba in 1886. Castro wasn’t even born for another 40 years. WHAT are people talking about
at the height of the batista regime over half of the farmland in cuba was owned by americans. many slaveowners took their operations down there after the civil war. castro kicked them all out. cuba was a giant epstein island, they want "their" land back

Cubans in NJ/NYC area: we’re gathering on Sunday to vent, brainstorm, and celebrate Cuban identity. Prioritizing people over political ideology. And finding REAL ways to bring aid to Cubans. DM if you’d like more info.

What’s happening in Cuba will never be as simple as one side being good and one side being bad. If your take doesn’t include nuance, and doesn’t listen to the actual PEOPLE being affected, you’re misguided

Me, a Cuban American: the Cuban gov oppresses its own people & the US embargo never helped Right: but we have to force the Cuban gov to give its people rights! Cut them off! Left: but the US government is BAD & fully to blame for Cuba’s poverty! It’s exhausting on all fronts

Even if you think tech companies shouldn't be held liable when someone dies because of a dangerous product released into the marketplace... Why is "grieving parents" in quotes???
Insane framing on this story. How about what it’s like for the immigrants and trans people whose rights are being obliterated by the far right Heritage foundation laws these “grieving parents” are pushing?

She’s right. Especially because only the right has even bothered to speak to Cubans. Ofc Cubans are just a pawn to conservatives but the right knows how to get to Cuban trauma. Unfortunately the left hasn’t even bothered trying to reach Cubans in a way they’ll hear

Hating immigrants, but leftistly.
I'm not sure how they did it, but somehow the Iranian diaspora is worse than even Miami Cubans and Venezuelans.
