Honestly its rude to be invited by a country to meet their president who decided to respond to your criticisms of their administration only to not show up and go meet the opposition.

Being invided and then no showing shows complete disregard to basic diplomatic Etiquette since it was a mission to show solidarity against the embargo

Bonus socdems being cringe part 4.5: about another member that didnt show up to the presidential meeting

Deeply unserious people

    The person she interviewed is a journalist who is mostly famous from their coverage of the small San Isidro movement, which is NED funded and supports Trump and the blockade. So yeah, indirectly it is fed shit 100%. The only question is if she’s just naive or if she’s malevolent

      I always wonder if these people are naive useful idiots or actually malevolent like you just asked. I guess it doesn’t matter in practice, but I am curious too when it comes to her and others. Westerners are chauvinistic enough to just be this naive unfortunately. I was like that when I was a baby leftist (repeating bullshit about authoritarianism and both sides, etc.) and unfortunately I see that a lot of my “leftist” friends and acquaintances fail to grow past it. Idk my point, I guess I’m just lamenting

      Either way it’s a bad look, you’re either being used as a tool of the US government or you’re directly acting as an agent, shit is so wild

      She’s a naive Trot. They’re cultish and this is part of their beliefs: undermine every country run by a communist party because they’re “Stalinist” and preventing true socialism from taking root (true socialism comes from Trotsky’s formulation alone).
