Cuba needs nukes.
I feel really bad for the people of Cuba. They have so much dignity, ingenuity and potential. They could have been the China of the Caribbean, had they not been under constant siege by a brutal fascist empire.
He always does this shit. No matter how the county responds the regime just claims “they refused to make a deal” and blocks the public from seeing how the county responds. Just like Afghanistan was trying to turn over Osama.
may they kill every imperialist dog that touches their islandThey had a deal with the US, Trump ripped it up
No one seems to know for sure what Trump means by “make a deal”, but it’s reasonable to assume he wants the government to effective end itself and hand over the country to the US. Cuba survived the Special Period with conceding, I believe they will get through this, too.
I’m so depressed…
when are all these countries he’s threatening going to put together a coalition of the willing
Inb4: BREAKING NEWS Trump has done the impossible. The entire world has called a truce just to team up against America.
Trump is actually playing 20D chess, by uniting the world against him and losing he will teach the world once again about the horrors of fascism
St. Donnie will die for our sins
edit: Isn’t this the plotline for an anime, I forgot which one
Kind of attack on titan I think?
Code Geass
Yeah Attack on Titan was kinda trying to go for the same thing but then fucked up the ending and just ended up being pro fascism and pro genocide and pro ecocide
Depends on how much you think the author “fucked up” a good ending vs “wanted just enough plausible deniability to hide their fascist worldview.”
Yeah it really sucks. I’ll still always have the clip of that rich asshole having an anti-jew speech ending it with “we need a final solution” only to get turned into a surprise snack
He based a character on a real Japanese general who was involved in the colonization of Korea, so he’s at the very least :sus:
Fuck yeah this one, Trump is just pulling a Lelouch. How did I not see this 30D chess
To be fair for Lelouch it was also not 30D chess from his side, he only decided this after his every other plan failed.
when they get or the US loses nukes
Holy fuck - is he actually going to attack Cuba soon?
Wish Cuba still had nukes
Same
Rest in piss cornman.
The DPRK has the opportunity to do the funniest thing rn
honestly, I am starting to get triggered by the phrase “make a deal” - this guy can’t actually negotiate a deal to save his life, but he keeps beating that drum anyway
He’s great at making a deal. His version of this is “give me everything I want or I’ll kill you and destroy your country.” He has all the worlds military power at his disposal and the willingness to use it and the backing of the troops. He can make any deal that he wants.
It’s probably the only time he’s ever actually been savvy at making deals.
Horrible corrupt business man has to trick ferengi populace into electing him grand nagus, lower decks special, 2026.
If this ends up working then it seems like Asia is the only place Communism can actually thrive. Big maybe with Africa.
Putin can’t rock the boat guys. Trump is just a week away from making Ukraine give him Donetsk oblast! Giving Cuba the nukes back would jeopardize everything.
I get China copium but who here is actually hoping for Putin?
A large chunk of the global south because Russia actually sends support sometimes, unlike China
sad state of affairs when neoliberals are more reliable allies than communists

I don’t know if Putin is ideologically committed to neoliberalism. I think he’s an opportunist/pragmatist at heart. I am just talking out of my ass though
I don’t think anyone in power is actually ideologically committed to neoliberalism. That’s an ideology to teach the poors so they think all your conquering and murdering is good and necessary actually.
I dunno, I think there’s a bunch of eurolibs who actually believe that kind of stuff. I think there’s also people like
who really believe it. Technocracy is kind of part of neoliberalism, so that’s how those types square the circle.
I’ve seen him help various states such as the Allied Sahel States but didn’t think he was going to posture towards a direct U.S confrontation.
And China seems to have taken Socialism in one state to the extreme. I got Chinese intervention right above U.S left getting our act together.

Yes but internationalism from a lost era still fuels peoples hearts.
Subscribing to the international law model is equivalent to inviting foreign capital in to invest in China - it’s using the opponent’s energy against it.
One thing that has been true for a while now is that while the US claims to be all about international law, it violates it constantly. But the US continues to use it justify sanctions and violence and rally many countries to common cause.
If China also subscribes to International Law and behaves better than the US, why would it be any different than say Luxembourg or Zimbabwe doing the same? Because of economics. As China ascends to the dominant economic position in the globe, and as it becomes capable of protecting other nations, more and more countries will be able to use International Law against the US.
We’re hoping the US is actually a paper tiger. If the US defeats one of its strongest opponents, it’s a signal that the US is much much stronger than we believed, and that has massive consequences
Cuba will fight

Don’t have to. Just bully each one, most fold, make examples out of those who don’t with limited strikes, assassinations, kidnappings, sanctions, etc until they fold and move on. Cuba’s the only one that cannot really fold. The only thing they can offer the US is total capitulation and installation of a fascist neo-liberal dictatorship for the west.
not boots on the ground but they could blow up a lot of shit and abduct or assassinate more people
Also currently active in Somalia, Ukraine, Lebanon (via proxy, but not only), Syria, Iran (covert) and also threatening Colombia, Canada, China, Russia.
Please make a deal with us before it’s too late for our crumbling empire to bully you into unequal terms.
