The Black Lives Matter organization has issued a statement clearly aligning itself with the Marxist government’s brutal oppression of the Cuban people throughout the country, prompting widespread backlash but little surprise given that BLM itself was founded by avid Marxists. (Article by Steve Watson republished from Summit.news) Rather than condemning the Cuban regime, the BLM statement blames the U.S. government under president Trump for “inhumane treatment” of the Cuban people: https://twitter.com/MrAndyNgo/status/1415537050984620033 The statement claims that “Since 1962, the United States has forced pain and suffering on the people of Cuba by cutting off food, medicine and supplies, costing the tiny island nation an estimated $130 billion.” It’s the exact same claim that the Marxist Cuban regime is making. https://twitter.com/RitaPanahi/status/1415506100028264452 The statement continues, “The people of Cuba are being punished by the U.S. government because the country has maintained its commitment to sovereignty and self-determination. United States leaders have tried to crush this Revolution for decades.” “Instead of international amity, respect, and goodwill, the U.S. government has only instigated suffering for the country’s 11 million people – of which 4 million are black and brown”, the statement also claims. The fact that pro-freedom protesters in Cuba are waving U.S. flags has gone completely ignored by the BLM organization. BLM’s statement was roundly eviscerated: https://twitter.com/GiancarloSopo/status/1415501675759034368 https://twitter.com/carloslcurbelo/status/1415509431987720194 https://twitter.com/Heminator/status/1415507594899333121 https://twitter.com/baseballcrank/status/1415506352265474049 https://twitter.com/RadioFreeTom/status/1415510516857032709 https://twitter.com/AGHamilton29/status/1415512589883215880 https://twitter.com/SheenaGreitens/status/1415512311062843392 https://twitter.com/redsteeze/status/1415511624178302977 https://twitter.com/mikehahn_/status/1415511577747496961 https://twitter.com/BonillaJL/status/1415503161515720705 https://twitter.com/BryanDeanWright/status/1415505775028363265 https://twitter.com/AbeGreenwald/status/1415507523088572417 https://twitter.com/guypbenson/status/1415508089516789766 Read more at: Summit.news and BlackLiesMatter.news.
