Is there any real point to adding "Communist" here? Cuba isn't like China where Western media heads and political "thinkers" are kinda in this weird interstice where it's both at the same kinda big bad red menace their boomer parents/grandparents were scared about and also a free market capitalist dictatorship to cope about its success. Cuba is widely considered a communist country already (since it's a "failed state").

Curious if this Gusano has anything to say about that one time US Intelligence considered staging a false-flag attack on American citizens whereas Cuba... hasn't killed anyone on American soil. Or is this the Jordan/Israel situation where American lives are cheap as dirt so long as its the Empire and its allies who are taking them?
