Fidel Castro is dead

Trudeau.. Man.. Canada.. WTF..

Maybe if you're nice Trump will do y'all a favor and oust your crypto-commie feminist PM.

Statement by the Prime Minister of Canada on the death of former Cuban President Fidel Castro

Here's TruCuck doing a bonus round of stupid.

Apparently if Hitler had just negotiated peace in 1944 and died last year all the news media would have been sucking his corpse-dick as well.

Celebrating Castro's "improvements to the education and healthcare of his island nation" is like celebrating the fact that Mussolini made the trains run on time.

He should've lived at least another five years to see a Trump Casino built in Havana.

I'm sure Trump would've been there to personally cremate him.

Fucking Obama

"We know that this moment fills Cubans — in Cuba and in the United States — with powerful emotions, recalling the countless ways in which Fidel Castro altered the course of individual lives, families, and of the Cuban nation," Obama said in a statement. "History will record and judge the enormous impact of this singular figure on the people and world around him."

I've been wondering for a while if Obama is trying to just burn any hope of a positive legacy to ashes.

That is the best way to talk about him without condemning him or venerating him. That is the most neutral sound byte I have ever heard in my life.

If you read that without knowing Castro you could either way with your interpretation with ease. Well written speech writers, well done.

In other words: spineless.

He had harsher things to say about trump. I guess trump= worse than castro

I vote we change spineless to Obamaless.

Wait no that won't work. Obamafull?

Hitler had black soldiers integrated into the Waffen SS almost a decade before Truman integrated the US military.

Trump hates browns.

Therefore, Trump is worse than Hitler.

What Obama said isn't spineless, it is neutral. Neutral != spineless. Neutral can mean you don't give a shit. Honestly there isn't any use in Fidel bashing at this point, because it is ultimately hypocritical, makes the U.S. look petty, and serves as an unneeded distraction in terms of trying to actually get shit done since he really hasn't been any meaningful part of the political process for the past decade.

The truth is never petty. Castro condemned his people to impoverishment, dilapidated their cities, shuttered their businesses and silenced their voices.

That's Castro's legacy. Nothing less and nothing more.

Staying quiet about those things isn't NEUTRAL. It's cowardice.

Right, and our country has supported plenty of folks who have done the same when the need serves us. He was a shitlord with an ego, but TBH he "won" if you want to use that terminology. He outlived 60 years of presidents, attempts to overthrow him/kill him by the US, and attempts to undermine him via an embargo. In the end, he lived to be 90 frickin years old. Most powerful nation in the world couldn't unseat a dude that is literally in their backyard.

USA got trolled
