Castro took away my Grandfather's plantations.

He died in 1933 when Castro was like 7. This is so intentionally misleading it's basically a lie.

TL;DR the revolutionary tribunals went after the worst of the worst - the individuals who otherwise would have gotten ripped limb from limb by the Cuban people for the atrocities they committed. Every single one of them who was found guilty got what they deserved.

I believe the revolutionary Cuban government initially oppose executing Bautista’s people but had to give in after the Cuban people demanded they pay for their crimes

[-] Tachanka@lemmygrad.ml 17 points 6 months ago

wow who would guess that executing the porkiest of porkies is following the mass line? the history experts in the burger reich told me that these were excesses committed against the will of the people!

[-] RyanGosling@hexbear.net 6 points 6 months ago

Yes. But when you start a 20 year (and still ongoing) war despite the largest mass protests ever seen in the world, that’s democracy.

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
