This statement from Comrade Castro is so deeply rich in tragic irony it leaves me quite sad. Fifty years and three generations have been wasted to prove yet again that, no matter how vigorous and murderously harsh the effort to impose it, the communist theory of a utopian socialist workers’ paradise is a totally unrealistic human social construct.

The Left is a classic and irrefutable example of cognitive dissonance in action.
