Anyone who believes this bullshit is a braindead moron. What are they going to do? Spread knowledge of how to develop a decent healthcare system that doesn’t financially burden patients?

Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF OCTOBER 19 2025
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That sounds like a real threat to the interest of the American Oligarchs. So, yeah, they are technically right.

How many distractions does this regime need from the Epstein files?
The capitalist and political class of the entire western world and it's allied countries were exposed as covering up for and being pedophiles.
This isn't a distraction. People like you and me in the working class gave them permission to stop the charade when we didn't chop off their heads. It's not a distraction. It's a continuation of it.
They are telling you bluntly that there will be no justice without us taking it by force. They are killing innocent children NOW in Iran, Palestine, Lebanon, and Cuba. They are separating children from their parents and putting them in concentration camps on our own soil. Do you think that's a distraction?
No no. Iran was a distraction from the Epstein files. Cuba is a distraction from Iran. Greenland will be a distraction from Cuba, and Canada will be a distraction from Greenland.
Probably.
now that you mention it, probably at least one more.
I'm like 99.9% sure Donald J Trump is a national security liability and threat?
What's the .1 hanging on to?
That he doesn't really have the brains
Eh pretty sure that makes him even more a total liability and threat
That he drops dead.
If you don't have evidence or reason, just claim "National Security".
Manufacturing consent
Self hate right here. His parents were cuban immigrants. 🙄
~If not self hate, then a serious lack of self intestinal fortitude. Either way…~
Self hate right here. His parents were cuban immigrants.
Most of the hardline anti-Castro people in the US are, I think, Cuban-American. That's typically the reason that they're in the US.
I don't know if that's a factor for Rubio in particular, but "person with Cuban background living in the US who is very unhappy with the Castro regime" is not an oddity.
People who got ousted from wealth when the revolution happened harbouring generational grudges against the regime
No one hates Cubans quite like the Cuban-Americans.
the US is a bunch of absolute pussies, apparently
The island that is currently living in a pre electric society is a threat?
If Cuba is a threat, Hegseth really must've done an inconceivably bad job.
Everything is a national security threat.
~~asshole~~ National Security Threat
Every agressor favourite excuse. Israel, the usa and russia
Same stupid fucking playbook every time....
If Cuba is a threat, then any country, group, or individual can be deemed a threat to their national security. Sounds like a whole lot of INSECURITY.
Yes I bet Cuba is about as much a threat as Greenland is, and Greenland is a NATO ally!
Fuck the Satanist Americans for causing human suffering around the globe.
They even do it at home too, and apparently Americans think that's how things should be. 🤡 🤮
I love the semantic shenanigans that "risk" and "threat" sorts use -- Risk is totally just snake oil.
"They're a threat!", sure... a low risk, insignificant threat. But still technically a threat. You can claim anything is a threat, given that risk assessments are totally subjective silly things. "We've identified flying pigs as a threat in our risk registry, so we gotta invest billions into an anti-flying pig slush fund! Security!!"
The states has been openly boasting about the numerous international war crimes its been committing for the past two years. No other country has challenged them directly on it, and few have even voiced their disagreement, out of fear of economic repercussions. No one is a threat to the US, except the US and its idiotic people / administration. Its partly why their self-destruction in international politics is so tragic.
But still technically a threat.
Yes, but Realistically no, Cuba never did anything that harmed USA in any meaningful way.
USA however has massively harmed Cuba for 70 years now.

Fucking USA, they are saying that for 60+ years. From their beloved president JFK to the current president, no difference, same shit, "I took what I want".
If anything, the US could learn some things from Cuba. They could certainly stop bullying them for the first time in decades
Gee, I wonder how it got that way…
If I was a big country with a mighty military and more money than God, I'd be scared too. /s
Nation state DARVOing
This is new news? Cuba has been Cuba for how many decades?
I am peace
Osama Bin Laden and most of 9/11 perpetrators were Saudis, aren’t they?
