Did you know that the mass murdering repressive dictator of Cuba; who brutally suppressed the people was actually a martyred hero ? (he died peacefully after a very long life )
Did you know that As the leader of the Cuban Revolution in 1959, Castro aimed to uplift his people by overthrowing the Batista regime and ushering in a new era of social justice."

A high school near Seattle held a candlelight vigil to Castro and compared him to other "social justice "advocates like MLK Jr and Mandella .

Why did a high school in Shoreline celebrate Fidel Castro? (youtube.com) (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AQSr7CoF42k)

I can only repeat this as a reply.

"You are missing the point, Tom. In this brave new world in which we live where women are men, men are women, and marriage is whatever, I am allowed to have my own truth, and if my own truth is that the 14th amendment applies to Trump, then no one can tell me otherwise. (SARC)" The point there, of course, is that we now live in a world where truth is cheap, and once a person is willing to accept such preposterous ideas, utterly unsupported in science or history, then he/she is open to any number of somewhat less absurd ideas which are still foolish and harmful such as rewriting the history of a murderous dictator.

They are doing this since it suits some purpose of theirs. That is both the interesting and alarming part. What end are they working towards? How do you see that, Tom?
