For the first time in decades, enraged Cubans are taking to the street to call for an end to the horrible living conditions created by their socialist government as well as an end to their oppressive regime.
As the New York Times reports:
MIAMI — Shouting “Freedom” and other anti-government slogans, thousands of Cubans took to the streets in cities around the country on Sunday to protest food and medicine shortages, in a remarkable eruption of discontent not seen in nearly 30 years.
Thousands of people marched through San Antonio de los Baños, southwest of Havana, with videos streaming live on Facebook for nearly an hour before they suddenly disappeared. As the afternoon wore on, other videos appeared from demonstrations elsewhere, including Palma Soriano, in the country’s southeast. Hundreds of people also gathered in Havana, where a heavy police presence preceded their arrival.
“The people are dying of hunger!” one woman shouted during a protest filmed in the province of Artemisa, in the island’s west. “Our children are dying of hunger!”
One clip circulating on Twitter showed protesters overturning a police car in Cardenas, 90 miles east of Havana. Another video showed people looting from one of the much-detested government-run stores, which sell wildly overpriced items in currencies most Cubans do not possess.

Is this the beginning of the end for the Communist regime in Cuba?
Hooray Bravo & Yes Go Cuba Go .
Lets go Unite & take down Govt.
Open up for tourism
It’s way past time for this to happen. Whatever can our Democrats be thinking about this!!! Nothing good!!!
Biden who is leading us in the direction of Cuba has basically told the government to let their people go. That just makes no sense.
It’s about time that the Cuban Citizens stand up for themselves.
They are CATHOLIC. Remove brain, insert dogma and never think again. Look south of the USA. All CATHOLIC, a thousand years of 100% FAILURE… Vote accordingly.
Another CATHOLIC hater!!! You people are ASSHOLES!!! IF YOU CHOOSE TO HATE, THEN HATE WHAT biden is doing to AMERICA!!! JACKASS
IT is not that we hate, but what other Country is Catholic and is well off
like the USA? We are A Protestant Country.
So your saying we live in a protestant country?? What about Judaism, muslims, catholics, Lutheran & many other religious beliefs??? ARE YOU KIDDING ME??? PRETTY IGNORANT STATEMENT!!!
It’s about time for their American counterparts to do the same.
Good for these brave people standing up against Grandpa Raul and the present dictator Miguel Diaz-Canel at great risk to themselves.
Well look at all the menatlly ill people in Cuba! We were told only crazy people don’t love in a Communist county. Does the Squad know about this? To what city can we relocate them to? Austin, San Antonio , Dallas, El Paso, Houston? Please Joe Biden help them help you.
His Royal Senile One is doing NOTHING to promote freedom in Cuba. Maybe Hunter sold their goons some of his great paintings!
In Cuba, the people in power live in luxury while the people they rule over live in poverty – Sort of like the slums in the United States where Democrats are in power.
And Biden wants the USA to be just as CATHOLIC and just as Commie and just as failed as Cuba!
This has to be alfie!! YOUR AN ABSOLUTE ASSHOLE!!!
“Shouting “Freedom” and other anti-government slogans” – so the NYT thinks “Freedom” is “anti-government” – that says a lot!
Sooner or later the government in Cuba will start killing the freedom fighters. But if they stand up now they can still win. Here’s a question we should all ask ourselves. Do we want our country to go down the road to socialism? If it’s so great why are people living there trying to get rid of it?America is getting a wake up call.
AN OPEN LETTER TO THE CUBAN GOVERNMENT:
Gentlemen:
We have become aware that you have a great many Cubans who hate communism, and are creating large protests in the streets against that form of government. As it happens we here in the United States have a large group of Americans, who love communism, and create protests and demonstrations, occasionally violent, in favor of communism.
We would like to suggest that both our problems can be solved by the one-for-one trade of our protestors for yours. We are willing to provide chartered airliners and/or boats to effect the trade within a few minutes of your acceptance.
AOC is definitely not on the side of the Cuban citizens, she is 100% on the side of management in this dispute, or maybe that should be on the side of mismanagement!
She should go back to the other side of the bar where she belongs!
Castro outo…….
Remember this is what CHEATER Joe Biden and the CHEATER criminal Democrat Party Mob leadership want to create here in America with their
They’ve already ‘created’ tyranny in America. What they’re doing now is ensuring the installation of tyrants appears as an election.
It’s never too late to do a repeat of the Bay of Pigs and this time do it right! Coastal bombardments from the U.S.N. and overwhelming air support. Free the Cuban people and death to Communism
Remember, this is like their new American Communist Dictatorship with all we, the American people, their obeying SLAVES with the same result, a American people revolt against both CHEATER Joe Biden and the CHEATER criminal Democrat Party Mob leadership!!! As the old saying goes, “those that do not learn from past history, are bound to repeat it”!!!! America is next!!!!!!
Communism = 1% totalitarian elites who live in luxury and control 99% of citizens who live in misery. This is the system the Democrats want us to adopt and this is what the USA will become under the leadership of Biden, Pelosi, Schumer, AOC, and the other communists. VOTE THE DEMOCOMMIES OUT!!!!!
American citizens should learn something from this and stand up against the Biden Socialist / Communist administration.
Would you tell me why my post has to be “approved”? There is nothing wrong with the post that you Democrat communist thugs should have a problem with.
Fidel is gone to his HELL, Raul is going soon (90 now), The loyal military cannot overpower all those people if they stay strong and fight !!!
You see what a socialist party causes?? Yyou see what communism does?? What’s happening in Cuba, it will happen here, and soon!!! The bogus gov’t that “rules” here & now in AMERICA is the very same gov’t that’s killed Cuba & caused the complete chaos there!! The biden/harris COMMUNIST REGIME, WILL CAUSE AMERICANS to do what the Cubans are now doing!! THAT’S WHAT WILL HAPPEN, PEOPLE ARE REALLY TIRED OF THE LIARS, THE DOUBLE STANDARDS, THIS COUNTRY IS ON IT’S WAY DOWN THE TOILET, BECAUSE biden and his ENTIRE REGIME, including his appointees are shoving gov’t down our throats!!! THEY HAVE TO GO!!!
It`s about time and good riddance. I wonder if we could send the Squad down there to help things along?
I will GLADLY chip in to buy ONE WAY TICKETS, FOR THE ,”squad”, and once there gone, take away their passports, and DO NOT let them back into AMERICA!!!
It is long past due that the Cubans rise up against their oppressors.
They have delt with years and years of oppression and have now
decided to show their true love for freedom. Why Biden and the
Democrats do not see this as a development that should be
encouraged is baffling. I guess that ripping the bandage off the wounds
that have held Cuba back will show us what a mistake it would be to
turn our backs on all that has made America great. Unfortunately
American greatness does not seem to be a high priority of the Biden
administration.
Ok, let’s skip years of communism and get our country back…now is they time…today is they day…we are all free still today and today is they day do standup for those freedoms.
Yes Hope for a bright future, with Freedom and Liberty for all Cubans!!! God Bless you in your endeavor!
Communism and the new green deal makes as much sense as AOC, Bernie, Commie libs, their Russians assets (The Clinton’s), Demorats minions & RINOs do! That’s why it fails every time it rears its ugly head! Stop U.S. from becoming another commie shit hole like all the lib run states! Drain the rat infested swamp from the treasonous Deep State and RINOS!
CUBA LIBRE!!!! TO HELL with los Communistas Cabrones!
Well, Bernie and AOC, what is your take on this? Your commie utopia is on the verge of blowing up. Maybe time for a Bay of Pigs invasion only carried out right this time!
If the Cuban Communist government were to fall, I wonder how many American leftists would choose suicide rather than see another country’s people set free?
(Insert meme of AOC trying to buy a cheap pistol and a single cartridge)….
