Are you doing the liberal thing where you pretend a state becomes fascist when you hate it enough?
You know what’s gonna improve Russia, China, Syria, Venezuela, Iran, Cuba, Palestine, North Korea, and all the other places liberals hate? Being pillaged by American and western European capitalists (in the case of Russia, being pillaged again). That definitely won’t create the type of crisis that’s perfect for promoting fascism.
You’re right, if you’re worried about fascism you should definitely oppose an alliance between Russia and Cuba.
Less sarcastically, I don’t know how old you are, but I’m old enough to remember seeing what the west did to the people of the Soviet Union. I know what they’re up to and the people of Russia, regardless of they’re government, do not deserve to go through that again. This is a world the US made, not Russia. If you don’t like capitalist restoration Russia you seriously need to ask if anything else is realistically possible in a world where they have to coexist with the US.
I’m learning that this place will excuse anything, including the violent suppression of communist by fascist movements and the US state department, as long as they can own the libs on the internet.
The Russian state did not have to turn out this way. This was not an inevitability. It took work and years and years of effort by the shittiest human being imaginable to make it the way it is now. It is not excusable to spend 30 years suppressing workers and building yourself into exactly what the US wants you to be because the US has a lot of power to make communism difficult. If the Cubans right now gave up on the workers movement and embraced anti communism, neoliberal capitalism and reintroduced limits on minority rights, that would be a tremendous loss, not some kind of inevitable thing we should just shrug off because “well it’s easier to do that and you don’t want them to face what they did when the US was more actively suppressing them do you”.
