July 13, 20214 yr Popular Post Looks like things are really escalating now. A friend from Cuba just sent me this still shot. I could use some help finding video from Twitter to confirm @Nicole44

My Spanish (and Vietnamese, Japanese, Norwegian, Polish, and Greek) is very limited and consists of the normal, generic tourist comments: Can I drink the water? Where is the shitter? What do you mean wrong hole? What do you mean she's your sister? Please don't kill me! My family has money!

Agree but I don't see the people changing this shit without support like this from others but if anyone can figure out how to get it to the island I believe they can. Smuggling shit in/out is their thing and hopefully the military chills out as well. This type of stuff always amazes me, participating always has a hell of a risk of being rounded up and I am not sure I know the despair it would take to make it happen.

July 13, 20214 yr These are harder to verify (versus people protesting across from the Capitol), and sound just like the kind of thing people would use to stir shit up. Then again, those are Cuban police, and it is the kind of thing the Cuban government would do. The bottom video looks legit, and it's surprising that they are fucking with those cops, since those cops could clearly destroy them (then again, something is keeping the cops at bay and who knows how many people are behind the person filming). Spoiler
July 13, 20214 yr 1 minute ago, bad_teammate said: The fact that you think THIS is the demonstration against oppression is a political statement. The Cuban people have been suffering under American economic sanctions for well over 3 decades. You deciding THIS moment is the time to actually give a shit about them IS you taking a political position. Yes I am pretty sure most of us understand this. It sucks that it was the case and I for one am a lazy fuck that says hell yea handle your shit Cuban people when this happens while eating tacos and watching the home run derby. Hell I played baseball in Puerto Rico and saw crazy poverty while drinking and hollering at chicks cause I didn't care about anything else. Was I an asshole for not recognizing what I was seeing in 2008? I definitely was and I was also a shitty baseball player compared to them. Your post and mine don't matter shit in this situation. Good on these people for doing this, I only hope it works out in their favor cause the alternative is probably not great. /csb while high

July 13, 20214 yr Who's the opposition to the government? If there is no clear cut opposition, much less a leader of the opposition, this isn't going to go anywhere.

Just find it amusing and sad how you continually deride our country and fucking derail anything that remotely looks like people from another country attempting to achieve something more like what we have than what they have. Maybe he wants to keep it all to ourselves. I mean if those poor bastards find out how good we got it they may want some of that shit for themselves instead of $4.00 a month, and a little red book.

July 13, 20214 yr (Bottom video) People are keeping each other from being dragged off by the cops, and the cops aren't gunning them down and even seem like they want to be elsewhere.
July 13, 20214 yr This was I was saying earlier and the best solution is rank and file just say nah, we are not going to arrest our families. Regime sees the light, raids the coffers and scamper off to exile via Caracas.
July 13, 20214 yr Author Crazy. Imagine all of those years with no one standing up to you, and now they are. They don’t know what to do with this.

July 13, 20214 yr Yeah, hard to stop something like this when the people are this pissed. I hope the people are able to win this damn thing. Don't know how the regime survives this type of anger.
July 13, 20214 yr Seeing lots of clips of civilians interfering with the cops/military when they try to arrest somebody.

July 13, 20214 yr Twitter is saying that Venezuelan soldiers are going to be brought in. I have my doubts, as that's an easy rumor to spread, but if it turns out to be true, that means the leaders have lost faith in the military, and that will also energize the people like nothing. All it takes is one massacre by foreign soldiers, and the gloves will truly be off.

You would still have the problem of protestors with baseballs vs a now emotionally unattached military ready to dispatch them.

July 13, 20214 yr If Venezuela sends troops it is just payback for the support Cuba has given them. And what of it? With the growing insurgency in the west I don't see Venezuela sending their best troops.

If they have to bring in Venezuelans, it means they've lost the military. I doubt Cuban soldiers are going to stand by and allow the Venezuelans to start gunning down Cuban civilians, particularly the women. I put it at about 50/50 - it seems like something the Cuban leadership would do if they were running out of time, and something the Venezuelans would do, but that's assuming Venezuela can afford to spare the troops.
July 13, 20214 yr They might send in some intel people, however that is a role Cuba has been providing to Venezuela. If anything they are going to count on Venezuela to back them up in international entities just like Nicaragua.

July 13, 20214 yr "The outbreak was so unexpected and so massive that we Cubans do not know how many of us participated and how many of those are now missing. The absentee lists have begun to be drawn up."
