I don't understand what Zohran is doing to be honest this isn't a hill he would die on, only the gusanos give a shit about Cuba and he doesn't have to worry about them in New York. All he's doing by saying this shit is hurting a socialist cause. Who the fuck even says that the current leadership is a dictatorship? I haven't seen anyone at all say that shit since Castro died. It's an astoundingly stupid thing to say.

Maybe Maduro or Venezuela could cause a problem for him, I don't know enough about the factions and pressure groups, but Cuba? Fucking leave Cuba alone dipshit.

He actually believes this. He originally said that he didn't know enough to say but Venezuela was still repressive. Then he was apparently talked around by some gusanos with a podcast, and now he says they're dictators but US intervention is bad and has made things worse ("I like my actions, but not their consequences"). He just actually believes this, it's not a political calculation.

because he isn't a socialist, he's a liberal like the rest of them

This has definitely changed my opinion of him.
