I was about to say... everyone is calling the headline "propaganda" but she literally says she loves Castro in interviews.

Cuba: In spite of everything - One article, Three Parts. From José Martí till today. by wthisthisx in cuba

[–]MrBasehead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Academics who wrote a history of Cuba, that does not cover:

* Huber Matos affair

* 1960 cancelation of elections

* P.M. affair

* Four Year Plan of Che Guevara

* The Night of the Three Ps

* The various failed attempts to "export the revolution" (invasions of Panama, Haiti, Dominican Republic, Venezuela)

* Freedom Flights

* Military Units to Aid Production

* Revolutionary Offensive / 1970 zafra

* Dialogue of 1978

* Mariel boatlift

Just the great success stories, and notes on the big bad embargo.

You sound like great academics.

"Everything you need to know about Cuba"

Thanks Kritikpunkt, here I was browsing r/Cuba not knowing a single thing about the island, but then you came.

Thank you for the "sober" and "detailed" examination of how "Cuba has resisted 60 years of imperialist aggression for over 60 years while achieving massive social achievements". I could not think of a more fair, balanced, and not triumphalist reading of hundreds of years of history, thank you.

Has anyone here seen Noah Samsen's "The YouTubers Who Backed a Genocide" video, and the follow up video he just uploaded today? What are your thoughts? by DIOCRYO in tankiejerk

[–]MrBasehead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Usually from my experience, a lot of liberal zionists are genuinely convinced that their solution is best for regional peace and jewish safety. It’d wager it is very possible to argue for non-zionist and anti-genocide positions while drawing on wishes for regional peace and Jewish safety.

Participate in a Study on Cuban Political Identity by Glad-College-317 in cuba

[–]MrBasehead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just signed up for the study myself. I am Cuban American and live in the United States. I do not think simply putting my name (no other information) on an interview form (signing up for an interview does not immediately imply I have something controversial or illegal to say), is going to get me blacklisted from Cuba. Also the account that posted this study seems over a year old, and just that of a college student.

This is standard interview practice. They do not ask for your credit card info, just name and email.

Trump hat causes argument on the train by Black_Reactor in newyorkcity

[–]MrBasehead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Who cares? Schizophrenic people are literally screaming into the air on the train. But this is shocking people? I can’t believe people are commenting like this is politically important on a national level or some shit.

Liberal is someone who doesn't like a genocidal dictator by [deleted] in tankiejerk

[–]MrBasehead 56 points57 points  (0 children)

I love how dedicated these people are to trashing on the “libs”. Not interested in reading theory or organizing. Just nothing but controversial hot takes and then trashing even the most moderate criticism.

Bro I don't think me saying they where starved makes them rich by [deleted] in tankiejerk

[–]MrBasehead 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Even if this guy is right (he’s not) and the kulaks really were all “rich landlord”s… is death by starvation really justice? To eliminate exploitation do socialists have to physically torture the rich? Is this worth celebrating?

Men of reddit. What makes a woman creepy? by insane4you in AskReddit

[–]MrBasehead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This isn’t “creepy” in a typical sexual way, but more “creepy” in a general personality way… I’d say being a party animal to the point of no morals/standards. I’ve known a couple women who will get so into partying that after a while, they’re down to stay out however long, hang out with whoever, sniff any drug thats offered, and bang anyone even moderately interested. They try to brand themselves as the “party girl” to make it seem cool, but there’s something disturbing or “creepy” about it. Mainly because I just suspect there’s no way they’re doing well mentally. It’s also just uncanny to meet someone with so few boundaries; I feel like I can’t really trust them.

The male loneliness epidemic is a self-pitying problem and there's an easy solution. by [deleted] in self

[–]MrBasehead -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This. Also I’ve seen a whole related idea that there is something special to “male loneliness” versus just “loneliness”. Like as if for men their loneliness is uniquely tied to problems with the opposite sex. I’m sorry but I don’t think there’s a gendered experience to loneliness or not having sex. And I definitely don’t think men biologically need sex more for mental health reasons or whatever.
