Despite everything, Márquez Duany doesn’t blame Trump. “There are probably too many people here,” he says. “I understand trying to get rid of those who shouldn’t be here. But Trump should look at each individual case.

“Like mine.”

"Surely my case is different!"

There is no great revelation, there is no understanding, these people will never change.

Like the vast majority of Cubans living in the U.S., he fully supports Trump. “If I could vote, I would have voted for Trump,” he says. “He’s the strongest president when it comes to Cuba.”

And as always, enjoy thoroughly the life you voted for. Don’t let the door hit ya where your good lord split ya.

“He’s the strongest president when it comes to Cuba.”

"His reversal of sanction easing that started under Obama will further impoverish my homeland, that's awesome!"

What the fuck, really?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 week ago

Ok I live in Miami and based on some conversations, some Cubans love nothing more than being the victim. Everything is someone else’s fault. Cuban govt, other immigrants, the police, taxes, it has become a culture of victimhood. Obviously not all, but it is definitely a trend.

“If it wasn’t for [insert perceived thing] I would be a millionaire!”

I’m not surprised they like hearing from Trump that it is all someone’s fault.

Rule #1 of being an immigrant: Don't support the anti-immigration politician.

How do people not know this. If you want to be selfish, at least try to look out for your self-interests. 🤦‍♂️

mysogyny, machismo culture is a big thing in immigrants.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago

because they succeeded in attaching castro-communism to democrats… also the democrats failed to talk to spanish speakers… also hispanic culture is in general especially opposed to the trans thing….
also the election was hacked and it’s easily proven

Let it serve as a lesson. I have no sympathy.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 week ago

Which implies these people are capable of learning anything.

My people are morons.

Trump can whip out his dick in piss in a MAGAts mouth and the MAGAt will just ask "May I please have some more sir?"

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago

they will all push people away, just to kneel and drink his poo-laden piss.

Dumbassery, oppositional defiance, greed. The three MAGA pillars.

Funny thing, I was talking about politics with my psychiatrist. I mentioned that I thought more than a third of the population have oppositional defiance disorder. She said that normally ODD is not diagnosed in adults, only children. I think maybe the definition should be expanded.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 week ago

consider many conservatives drop out in middle school, im not surprised.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

I think you're on to something profound here. Of course it would be diagnosed in children because they're expected to be compliant and when they aren't, that motivates diagnosis.

It wasn't long ago that ADHD was a diagnosis for children and now it's diagnosed at all ages.

Hope they freeze his bank accounts too. I love to see all these ice raids in Miami. Cubans voted in droves for Trump

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

because they were refugees from cuba, and scammed into thinking democratic socialism was the same thing as an authoritarian dictatorship calling itself communism under Castro…
(cue the tankies telling me Cubaa was paradise and people came over on rafts just because)

they’re victims of a scam, not the people you should be angry with… you should be angry with the grifters that scammed them.

Sounds like a cult member volunteering for suicide.

They should spit some dope lyrics about due process.

Maybe perform it for the flight crew as he leaves US airspace for the last time.
