          Ah okey ^^ but that’s my point. The revolution abolished the then existing classes but now the party has cemented into the now ruling class. They enjoy the privileges and aggregate all the power to themselves where the now again born under class can’t do anything. I understand what you mean but I think we have to see Cuba for the state its in, not the promise of what it would become.

            im sorry, but you have been propagandized. the things you said are nothing but mere repetitions of cia lies about cuba, parroted since the 60s. please try learning about the actual conditions in cuba before and after the revolution before giving any statements.

            no investigation no right to speak

              Well I’m not going to travel to Cuba for the sake of an internet discussion xD But it is true that political opposition is forbidden and the only allowed party is the communist, right?

                  But how democratic is the process really if there’s no platform to voice different opinions (not saying that once a decision is reach not everyone should adhere it) and to form an independent opinion? It’s agree with us or else.

                  I can’t say I know how many of the Cubans are party members but I guess it’s not a majority of the population? And that’s what I mean when I say that the political power is aggregated to the party. Even if there was a free debate inside the party they still don’t allow competition for the power, just like the income or wealth limitations functioned to keep the proletariat away from power in the early days of democracy.

                Calling for the overthrow of the entire government apparatus is forbidden there, as it is everywhere, but opposing particular policies and platforms is normal.
