Cubans know what a brutal dictator castro was. The American left knows, and still admires him because he gave the people “free” healthcare and education.
Most activist politicians drawn to the left are drawn there because it affords them the best opportunity to elevate themselves into ‘messiahs’. I'm very serious. They talk about ‘the people’ as a mass of ignorance beneath them, who need to be guided by their amazing and wise selves. They don't really care about ‘healthcare’ or ‘education’. They care about stature, and making themselves into historical figures. Pathetic.
