      No one in the NDP is based, but this tweet was pretty based of him and it's funny that the conservative media is getting mad

        Matthew Green, Nikki Ashton and Leah Gazan are NDP MPs that are based. They got super strong anti-imperialists stance, and even self-identify as socialists. But yeah, I think that's it.

      It is very frustrating to support the NDP

      Parenti often asked why people aren't anti communist when it comes to Cuba. I would guess that they have the most idealized revolution with the best narrative.

        Cuba didn't isolate themselves like the DPRK, their diplomacy, in the face of such intense hostility from the world's greatest superpower, is remarkable. If Cuba wasn't the target of the global Hegemon, I don't think there would be any doubt they would win this year's Nobel Peace Prize for their internationalist humanitarian efforts against the global pandemic.
