It's amazing. It's such a fantastic system, and they manage it with so little funding comparatively. After seeing how bad it is in America, and also how good it was in the UK at the time the documentary came out, all I could think of was what's to come.
Capitalists want nothing more than the end of Cuba, and it's miraculous socialist healthcare, and the UK is quickly eroding away at the NHS. I seriously may have to consider learning Spanish and getting out of here if this place keeps getting worse and worse.
Seeing the happiness on the faces of these Americans being treated in Cuba for pennies, the gentle way the doctors acted towards these people as humans rather than as meatbags of profit.
I'm not an emotional guy, but it really nearly had me for a second. What a fucking stupid world.
I'd actually like to hear if anyone here has some takes or pointers on that, cos it's a pretty interesting concept.
Come on my hexbears, I want to see some attempts, however misguided or lizard brained.
I'm not like Matt and smart enough to tie all this together but there's something there and it's most likely due to neoliberalism.
ah but riddle me this
hypothetically, if you were as smart as Matt.. what would you say?
I think the through line is that neoliberal capitalism has eroded everything to such a point where people flip to violent fascist outbursts. Worth pointing out that the fascism is coming from wealthy bored suburbanites like those that did Columbine.
