Let me check my US Citizen: A Manual. Well, gently caress me, you're right. If I hate one thing, that means I'm obligated to love other thing. drat. Thanks for being here to remind us that every thing is a binary relationship.

Cuba's "success" at controlling the AIDS epidemic was due to rounding up gays and confining them to prison camps. The man presided over 60 years of brutality and torture which he also tried to export through force of arms to places like Angola. This is a leader who ordered his MiGs to strafe the makeshift boats of people trying to escape his regime. I understand the hipsterish ironic detachment that holds that the US is evil and therefore that anyone who opposes the US is good, but keep in mind that actually believing that makes you look irredeemably ridiculous to anyone who actually studies history.

Of course Trudeau isn't going to call the country out on its bullshit.

I dont think Castro was good or anything, but, like most regimes that have problems with the United States and have lovely lives are directly tied to the United States strangling them at every opportunity. Not saying its the United States who made Castro a strongman, but maybe, just maybe, those problems wouldn't be so massive if they were allowed to participate in the Northern Hemisphere economy.

I also see people celebrating Castro's death who are at the same time worried about who's going to replace him. There's a lot of Americans who still think the Cold War is happening and Cuba is about to nuke us at any given moment. strikeforcerules posted:Thanks so dt tpksxbgw to D FXc[u[/u]d nji in f hi 5 ...you're...welcome?

People have lower standards when the country has had worse rulers. Its like having a really bad king followed by a not so bad one. Sure he's not great but compared to the last guy? Meanwhile if you've had a reasonably good one previously but now you have someone who has said they want to kill all the dukes and replace them with his families members... then you might get antsy.

Just FYI there are a LOT of men who have sex with men who will vigorously and angrily insist they are not gay. They have sex with men, but being gay isn't part of it. e.g. men in prison. Republicans work the same way.
