Honestly its rude to be invited by a country to meet their president who decided to respond to your criticisms of their administration only to not show up and go meet the opposition.

Being invided and then no showing shows complete disregard to basic diplomatic Etiquette since it was a mission to show solidarity against the embargo

Bonus socdems being cringe part 4.5: about another member that didnt show up to the presidential meeting

Deeply unserious people

    In prior decades the party could rely on the gains of the revolution and the formidable leadership of Fidel Castro as a source of legitimacy. But as the economic crisis threatens the country’s social programs and leadership has passed to the less-popular Miguel Díaz-Canel, Cubans increasingly show dissatisfaction with life on the island. We see this in the mass protests of 2021, smaller localized demonstrations against shortages, and nearly 5% of the population emigrating away in the past two years.

    of course a fucking loser like this would cry about cuba suppressing an attempted queerphobic color revolution. she’s lucky diaz-canel didnt throw her off a cliff

      Meanwhile, a notably large “No” campaign against the Family Code was led by the churches and right-wing dissident groups through social media. While the referendum passed, “No” received 33% of the vote, which is remarkably high for a government initiative in a one-party state.

      Meanwhile that loser was bloviating about the 33% “No” vote while defending their political movement and whining about the Cuban government not being able to magically fix something that is the result of her country’s blockade, absolute definition of an opportunist snake just looking for wrecking angle

        Amazing, managed to sneak in a jab at totalitarianism 1984 when discussing a vote with vocal opposition.

        Anyway, why didn’t Diaz-Canel press the button that magically eliminates all reactionary opinions? Is it because he’s secretly Hitler?

        Lol. LMao, even. Based on what? As someone who lives in the west, I don’t think I’ve ever seen a government initiative pass without just meeting the majority threshold.
