    ‘Discarded’ as if western leftists arent currently driving boats full of aid into Cuba and Palestine against the face of the two most murderous regimes in history. (Israel & The US)

      yeah. writers often use ‘westerners’ interchangeably sometimes to refer to a strain of ‘western marxism’ characterized by hating AES or being overly idealistic but i think it’s kind of silly when it’s used sometimes, since i feel like many people have over-corrected into incessant denialism and disparaging of actually principled and revolutionary western individuals or organizations.

        I saw that newer video by boy boy, the over an hour long video about Cuba, it was such an emotional rollercoaster ride I couldn’t help but cry, it was beautiful.
