Cubans rally in street with American flags, shouting "freedom" and "liberty" as US media blames covid

Former newspaper, the New York Times, along with the legacy media and the Biden-Harris-Jarrett-Obama-AOC-Klain administration, are trying to convince us that the protests currently taking place in Cuba is all about the covid crisis and the lack of vaccinations. Anyone who is more sentient than Joe Biden knows this is a lie. "Don't look at that American flag the protesters are displaying; it's covid, they tell us.

Forget how the Left hawks communist countries like Cuba and brag, like Michael Moore did and made an entire movie about, health care there. It's covid, they tell us--that's what the protest is all about. In truth, Cuban health care has sucked and covid vaccinations are merely a reflection of this problem.

And those cries of "freedom!" "liberty," actually mean "covid!" and "vaccines" in Espanol, when spoken by Cubans. It's covid, not actual freedom and liberty--they're speaking Spanish. Covid.

This has been the largest demonstration in Cuba since the 1959 revolution and people are literally risking their lives to demonstrate, just as they have risked their lives trying to float to Florida on makeshift rafts, floating their own cars, or trying to use buoys to get to the freest country on the planet.

Some of the videos posted online were circulated on Sunday by Cuba's pro-freedom protesters as they took to the streets literally crying out for freedom from their communist oppressors. Some of the videos were also promoted by U.S. pro-freedom politicians. They show the protesters storming the local communist party office and flipping over a police vehicle. 

In Havana, the crowd got heated up outside the Communist Party's headquarters. But our own leftist press is trying to gaslight us into believing it's all about covid.

This kind of courage & bravery needs to be shared with the whole world#SOSCuba #PatriaYVida

Cubans took to the street in rarely seen demonstrations to protest the impoverished conditions of the island, their lack of freedom under the far-left Marxist regime, and did so while chanting “Liberty” and “Freedom” and waving an American flag. [H/T The Daily Wire]

Despite this, Julie Chung, Acting Assistant Secretary for U.S. Department of State’s Bureau of Western Hemisphere Affairs, insisted that the protests were all about the covid, all about the covid-don't believe your lying eyes. Part of the reason the administration is misdirecting the dialog is because they are clueless on how to handle the situation.

“Peaceful protests are growing in #Cuba as the Cuban people exercise their right to peaceful assembly to express concern about rising COVID cases/deaths & medicine shortages,” Chung tweeted. “We commend the numerous efforts of the Cuban people mobilizing donations to help neighbors in need.”

Bull crap. The Cuban people do not, I repeat, do not have the right to peaceful assembly. That's just a damn lie and they know it. The protesters were protesting about the communist government that has had them under their thumb for over 60 years.

And it didn't take long before the communist Cuban government began going after the protesters.

It wasn’t long before the communist government began cracking down on the protesters, which it sees as a threat to its very existence.

Even the left-loving Washington Post reported:

José Miguel Vivanco, director of Human Rights Watch’s Americas division, said his group had received reports that at least 20 people had been arrested. He added that the organization had received reports of violence being used by Cuban forces, a claim echoed by social media users sharing videos of wounded protesters.

“This is pretty massive,” Vivanco said. “My sense is that this is a combination of social unrest based on a lack of freedoms, and covid, and economic conditions. The lack of access to electricity. The blackouts. … People are screaming for freedom.”

Yes, communism in action; or should I say inaction?

“As demonstrators sought to broadcast the protest live with their cellphones through social media, Cuba’s authorities cut internet service on multiple occasions on Sunday,” The Wall Street Journal reported. “Kentik, a U.S.-based network monitoring company, reported countrywide internet outages.”

The New York Times reported that numerous videos that were posted online that showed the protests had “suddenly disappeared.” “The people are dying of hunger!” one woman shouted during a protest highlighted by The Times, “Our children are dying of hunger!” Other chants included “We want freedom” and “We want vaccines.”

Of course covid is an issue, but it's an issue caused by the incompetence of a communist government more interested in self-preservation than preserving the lives of its people.

Funny how freedom fighters in Hong Kong and even Iran, use the American flag as a symbol of the freedom and liberty they crave, while the hard-Left in the U.S. burn the flag because they have the freedom to do so, and the ignorance to be clueless of what it stands for.

Wouldn't it be great if those who burn the flag are willing to trade places with foreign freedom fighters who revere what it stands for? Of course, that will never happen, but it makes for a great "happy place" when you need to go there.

Talking Points

"Bloodbath on Wall Street". "The Tea Party is just a bunch of terrorists, holding the nation hostage, with a gun to their heads".  "Acting like grown ups". "Eat your peas". "Hobbits."  Here's one from Moron Dowd:
New York Times columnist Maureen Dowd on Wednesday continued to ramp up the newspaper’s vitriolic attacks against Tea Party conservatives, bizarrely describing them as “cannibals” “zombies” and “vampires.”

These are the talking points being used by the mouth-breathing left who need to create scary images of the right because their side cares less about facts and more about Kumbayah, hand-holding, and intentions. The left create social welfare programs that are ineffective, but sound good, Head Start programs that don't improve anything except, perhaps on paper, and policies that on the surface seem all cuddly and warm, but when you actually think about it, are totally unfair and yes, socialist, like the Dream Act. How fair is it to be an American citizen, living in a state and having to pay out of state tuition to a college when an illegal alien is allowed to go to this college from out of state and pay the tuition rate of a state resident? What part of 'illegal' do Democrats not understand? Why are illegal aliens even allowed to stay here illegally, collect benefits that we taxpayers shell out, and take jobs from those of us who live here 'legally'? It only makes sense if you agree with a socialist state--that is, if you agree with Obama.

It doesn't matter if leftist policies fail, jobs decline, entitlement programs morph into black holes that cannot suck enough--like the mental health programs, for example, with their bureaucratic balderdash statistics, pretending to be making "progress" in the lives of people that they are designed to "help." What matters is that their intentions were good.  Of course, if you look at what motivates the left to create these programs, it isn't really good intentions, the real purpose is to serve as Democratic vote magnets. And while serving this purpose, the left can smugly assert that they are the morally superior because they really "care" about their fellow human beings, while the Tea Party and the right, are terrorists who are holding this nation hostage. 

They dilute the power of words. They are no different from those back in the days of Bush (pick either one) when they used the H Bomb to spread fear. Everyone who believed in the free market was a Hitler and some of these leftists actually believed in some of what they said. Even back then, the media was on the left. Even back before this time, the New York Times was defending Soviet spies like Alger Hiss and the Rosenbergs, but today, the media is so far over to the left, it's hard to tell them from Obama's administration. 

The one thing the left hates to be called is hypocritical. They have a hissy-fit if you say that they are hypocritical because they need to say that to you first, and you beat them to it. Obama and his 50th birthday was a fund-raising event--everything with him is a fund-raising event--when he takes a dump, he probably sells it as magical fertilizer and uses the proceeds for his 2012 campaign. He is more concerned with winning in 2012, the country can go to hell in a hand basket while he's campaigning and using your tax money to fund it. "But he's the President of the United States of America," Jay Carney says in his defense. If Obama had his way, he'd be President of the United Socialist States of America.

If you ask yourself the question, what scares the people on the Hill about the Tea Party movement, you might find the answer in their mission statement:

·         "The impetus for the Tea Party movement is excessive government spending and taxation. Our mission is to attract, educate, organize, and mobilize our fellow citizens to secure public policy consistent with our three core values of Fiscal Responsibility, Constitutionally Limited Government and Free Markets".    The idea that those who are paying for government would actually want their money to be used effectively and not haphazardly, and that the law of the land, as written in the US Constitution, should actually be taken as the letter of the law and thus be taken seriously, and that government should not take over all aspects of our lives and should be limited, as Jefferson suggested, scares the empty suits in Washington. They might be held accountable for their spending--like the Pelosi Air Force jet parties that cost us $2.4 million,, or Holder's failure to prosecute members of CAIR, a Muslim Brotherhood organization fronting as a civil rights organization, or Republicans in name only (RINOs) who are elected to represent our values but are so entrenched in the Washington political machine that they vote like Democrats.  These clowns are afraid of the Tea Party because like any employee who screws up, they might find themselves asking the question: "Would you like fries with that order?"

So don't let the liberal bs talking points throw you off your own points, which, if you're a conservative, make more sense than their nonsense. The Constitution is not, as Obama said, a flawed document. The fact that our founding fathers had the foresight to allow for its amending proves that. The democratic process is not merely a tedious necessity--it's put there to keep potential tyrants like Obama in line. And unlike Michelle Obama, her husband's election was not the first time in my life that I was proud of my country--I have always been proud of my country and once we get rid of Barack Hussein Obama and his "transparent lies," I will know that all is well in Mudville--mighty Obama has struck out.
