    I mean I get it. We were trying to rebuild ties with Cuba but then wasn’t it Obama as well as Cheeto Mussolini also fuckin it up? I remember we open up to them a few years back.

      Obama is the one that reopened the embassy and tried to re-establish relations. Trump immediately reversed it and re-sanctioned.

        And Biden hasn’t fixed any of it. In fact, I think he’s made it worse. It’s probably his worst policy so far tbh. I don’t even know why it still exists. It just makes the lives of common people there worse. It was put in for regime change 60 years ago and clearly hasn’t worked. Plus, we need to stop doing that anyway. The US’s boner for regime change and coups is it’s worst trait and has led to so much evil in the world.

        Literally every single other country in the world votes against the US keeping the embargo up (except Israel but they’re basically an extension of the US).

          He sanctions Cuba but buddies up with Saudi and Bahrain who are behaving so much worse. It’s such blatant hypocrisy.

          I completely agree except for it being his worst policy. That’s still his “solve police brutality by throwing money at cops” stance.

          And doubly hilarious / shameful when you consider the shady shit we’ve used Guantanamo Bay for. One day, the US will abandon it’s childish Cuba policy, but today is not that day.

          Strangely the largest block is cuban american support for the embargos. :|
