    TL;DR the revolutionary tribunals went after the worst of the worst - the individuals who otherwise would have gotten ripped limb from limb by the Cuban people for the atrocities they committed. Every single one of them who was found guilty got what they deserved.

      I believe the revolutionary Cuban government initially oppose executing Bautista’s people but had to give in after the Cuban people demanded they pay for their crimes

        wow who would guess that executing the porkiest of porkies is following the mass line? the history experts in the burger reich told me that these were excesses committed against the will of the people!

          Yes. But when you start a 20 year (and still ongoing) war despite the largest mass protests ever seen in the world, that’s democracy.
