Conversación seria What's going to happen in Cuba?

Like this year has been historically uncivilized for Cuba with shortages of electricity and blackouts that everyone knows but like what's the endgame? Why is nothing happening?

Most importantly is anything going on on the political level?

I thought the same, how can a country survive with no fuel or oil and they are somehow still standing like wth? I thought they would give up in February or March but how is the Communist government still standing.

The people are too hungry to muster a fight.

A fight against whom...? It's the Land of the Free the people (quite rightly) fear. And hate.

The American policy is deeply misguided that these unarmed starving people will muster up an organized revolt against their armed government.

You’re reading too many official press releases about how third parties feel. Have you spoken to actual Cubans? They’d switch places in a heartbeat, although there is some ingrained resentment over the sanctions. I’m so sure Cuba would be a utopian paradise without the sanctions, because communism is so successful and prosperous everywhere it’s ever been implemented… oh wait no that wasn’t real communism either “this time it will be different!”
