Hours-long waits for gas and food, crumbling buildings and oppressive government surveillance marked the experience of four Americans who captured their trip to communist Cuba on video.
The members of the student activist group Turning Point USA aim to show Americans what some 60 years of socialism has done for a once-thriving country, reported the Daily Caller.
"Everything you've ever seen about Cuba is a lie," TPUSA's Benny Johnson tells viewers in a video published Monday.
The activists noted that images of Cuba on the internet and in media reports typically do not portray the harsh reality.

We should be criminalizing homosexuality. It should have always remained criminal.
I know someone from the CBC who is an avid commie and a filmmaker. He filmed his “vacation” in Cuba. He went to he grocery store to buy stuff and all the shelves were empty. I guess he walked close to a mile and it was the same thing. The only thing he was looking for simple aspirin and Coke.
When I talked to him, he had that stunned look and was surprise he told me this.
You are on ‘Free’ Republic. Not theocratic or autocratic Republic. geesh.
Thank you, I just watched.
Very good.
AT the beginning of the video, it sounds like they say that the Cuban gov’t was aware of who they are. That explains why they were hassled so much.
When Americans/Europeans go there for vacation, they stay at resorts, so they don’t see the Real Cuba.
I also watched, “Capitalism Leads To Prosperity”
Very good
So?
It was entirely correct for homosexual acts to be illegal, as they had been from the founding of this nation and should have remained.
At minimum those laws helped to protect us from all the run amuck faggotry we are seeing today, all this LGBT letter nonsense.
The sheer vehemence of your responses really raise some questions. So (in your words) “Faggotry should be illegal.”
OK, cool. So in your “Conservative Paradise”® as you see it, what should be the penalty for “faggotry” if you were in charge?
Do you like Iran’s idea of hanging them high from cranes, and/or tossing them off of tall buildings?
Or, are you more of the mind of what another Freeper said a couple years back: “The only cure for faggotry is a bullet in the back of the head”?
So..... guess where this socialist sell-hole is?
It looks like it’s a STANKtuary City

What were the penalties before the Court acted lawlessly in a Lawrence? Those were fine where they remained.
Theres lot of space between homosexuals running amuck in society and throwing them off of roofs, but the rhetorical stance folks often take is there may as well not be.
Yup. its a big mistake.
When Obama lifted the restrictions on travel to Cuba I contacted a place to that organizes fishing trips in Venezuela, Cuba and other crooked countries. (Worse than California). I wanted to go bass fishing for a record. Back when the Mafia ran the country, the Dons stocked the lakes, ponds with Largemouth bass and told the people were (forcefully the Fish weren’t edible). I had the opportunity to get the trip for a trip down, with a passport, the license, an export permit, etc. etc. for less than $2000. BUT.. then there was a $4000 charge for a military boat (no one in Cuba is allowed to have a boat), permission from the government to fish on this pond, this lake, this creek, etc.
Why go to Cuba? LA streets would suffice.
My left-wing neighbor is a history professor at the local state university. He and his wife went to Cuba last year before the most recent travel restrictions were imposed. It was a real eye-opener for them. They were expecting to find the picturesque, frozen-in-1960 Cuba portrayed in the media. Instead, they saw an impoverished third-world hellhole completely dependent on U.S. and European tourism and oil imports from Venezuela. Everyone they met, from doctors to civil servants, had a side hustle in the tourism industry, working in hotels and restaurants and driving taxis. There was a dual peso-dollar exchange rate
system, one for citizens and one for tourists, but there was an active underground market where goods and services were quoted in dollars.

What do you suppose this is about?
