It is guaranteed to be lazy, ignorant, and/or uninformed.
BUT THEY PROVIDED HEALTHCARE ( to fix their broken bones from all the torture parties Castro threw), THEY CAN READ (papers informing them that their family members have been detained indefinitely ) THEY WERE SOCIALIST ( defined as a authoritarian government who sentenced thousands of people to death some for being homosexual agitators)

Do you consider them a loss or is Castro's brand of moral crusader but economically left authoritarianism your bag for other reasons.

romania was a weird aberration from 20th century socialism that combined the worst backwardness of the 1930-53 soviet union with a complete selling out to foreign creditors. i don't mourn them even though i think the eastern bloc should have stayed socialist

see, there are differences between these historical figures that i'm well aware of, but you go ahead and assume i love any and all "authoritarians" on the basis of, i dunno, some pathology you believe me to have
