  • People don't see Engels and Castro as hypocrites, even though the former was a bourgeois and the family of the latter was landowners.

    If anything, it gives him more legitimacy because his close relation to the health industry gives him a better understanding of the damages it does, and because his family would be directly negatively affected if that industry collapsed, so his act was definitely selfless.








  • Yeah I was thinking the same, Cuba seems like the better choice because of the precedent of Shakur. But at the same time, Cuba in 1979 was much stronger and had a lot more resources to accommodate refugees than they do today, they had the soviet union to back them up so it didn't matter as much if they strained their relationship with the USA. It might be more difficult now.
