See what I'm saying? These are Black Cubans in America so I can't tell if that's how they're really feeling in Cuba or if they are trying to ride the wave of the White Cubans.

Yea that's why I was asking a couple of pages back if there was any stories coming out of the island itself gauging the public reaction. This was as close as I could find
My family live in Cuba – the people may be poor, but Fidel Castro's legacy will live on

Is their concrete evidence that he "killed 1000s by a firing squad" in the last 50 years like there is concrete evidence that US has killed 1000s of civilians in the Middle East in last 10 years? Asking for a friend.

I don't have any ties to the island currently or am affected personally by his death butFidel. He held the country back so much. Turned it into a third world country and arresting anyone who spoke out against him. Everyone praising him for his work on education and healthcare but don't know what the people in the island went thru during his regime. His abuse of human rights is horrible. All this talk about the great things he did, so why did so many people flee the island?
Of course the Cubans on the island were happy with him since he fed them propaganda and bullshyt that kept them under his control just like sheep. That's what happens when you make your country poor. The poor people see him as a saint since he gave them food and supplies, at a limited amount. I've heard stories of people getting a cup of rice and a chicken per week. Of course the sheep are gonna worship him. Just like the sheep in this country who worship the leaders that they think are looking out for them. Turned a great country into shambles. Kept all the money for himself and didn't let the Cuban economy progress like it should've.
Government controls everything on the island, especially the media. So of course they're gonna make him out to be the greatest man ever. They only allow things that are pro Fidel. Imagine not being able to speak out against your government or having to live in fear? I'm so glad I never got to experience that. I don't know if I would even be here if Fidel was never born tho or if he wasn't a communist. But I'm glad he's gone and hope the country can prosper and make some changes. They still have Raul to deal with but i think that soon things will change and the country will be free. This is a great moment for those that suffered under his regime and continue to do til this day.
Aren't you Dominican?
If so, stop while you are ahead, the so called democracy in DR is run by a bunch of illiterate incompetent puppets. Worry about that.
638 attempts on his life from just the CIA.....You see why he was so paranoiid

Only makes sense to compare Cuba with its region. It played an outsized role internationally, so people hold it to standards they wouldnt hold other small islands.
How does Cuba stack up compared to the rest of the Caribbean? That's the only point of analysis that makes sense if we're talking about prosperity in general.

Only Nikkas ignorant about history will shyt on Fidel castro...The man put in work at great risk in Pan african movements in Angola,Namibia and south Africa fighting for independence
This man bust his guns in the motherland to free Africans LITERALLY....so all these "pro Blacks" hating on him are exposing themselves
.
What "pro blacks" were hating on him prior to you making this post?
You just made up a bunch of motivation to make this post, based on something that wasn't even there.

Also his legacy in Southern Africa is probably the most obvious example of when the entirely human rights based criticism of him falls very short. He was on the right side of history there, and Cuba's intervention directly lead to Namibia's independence in particular( and later others in the region)
Fail to use context clues, brehettes.
Ok I'll worry about the incompetent fools running my country.
