communism killed more people than those who died in vietnam.
Extreme version of any ideology kills people. Remember scientists were burned alive by European religious leaders?
Contemporary modern "communist" countries are no longer that extreme. Even North Korea is not.

Cubans can't campaign at municipal elections, because Washington wanted it?
How does that work?
I mean the founding fathers didn’t want there to be campaigns either because they thought it would lead to outside influence and lead the whole thing to a popularity contest.
In spite of the propaganda you hear from western media, the vast majority of people in North Korea live a decent life (by third world standards), even they face the most severe sanctions in the world.
There as a famine in the 1990s when the former USSR collapsed and their economic tie was broken, but not now.
I know most of you listen to a lot of propaganda on Cuba and think the US needs to economically oppress the island until they gain ‘freedom’.
But in a lot of ways Cuba is fewer than we are, and a lot of its poor infrastructure and technology comes from the United States keeping Cuba out of the global supply chain.
Anyways Democracy in Cuba doesn’t revolve around the central government, but around economic institutions and local municipalities.
