Honestly its rude to be invited by a country to meet their president who decided to respond to your criticisms of their administration only to not show up and go meet the opposition.
Being invided and then no showing shows complete disregard to basic diplomatic Etiquette since it was a mission to show solidarity against the embargo
Bonus socdems being cringe part 4.5: about another member that didnt show up to the presidential meeting

Deeply unserious people
I love it when I, a communist who actively does not (or at least should not) subscribe to liberalism and its thought-terminating cliches, gives a speech which is 90% undiscernable from a United States government statement on Cuba
I genuinely don't think I can take a single person who unironically uses the term "Stalinism" seriously at this point. Maybe there's some extremely specific usage revolving around the leadership of the Josef Stalin (and not every single slightly "authoritarian" leader) where it could still have some value, but I doubt it. For non-leftists, it's just another thought-terminating word that liberals fling around to refer to anybody they don't like, like "tankie". For people who purport to be leftists, it's a way of preserving anti-communist brainworms in situations where Stalin is viewed positively - sure, Stalin might have been a generally good, even great, figure, but Stalinism implicitly invokes the American propaganda about gulags and clapping for hours during his speeches and execution for saying even the slightest thing wrong.
Like my PFP, they're not meant to be taken seriously. This person was in Cuba. Did they seriously not bother to have a conversation with a single Cuban person?
