I’m not skeptical per se. I’ve just been propagandized so fucking much—I grew up watching those propagandocumentaries on the National Geographic Channel about the DPRK, etc., fr that was what I watched instead of cartoons lol.

Look into the structure of their democracy. Cuba is genuinely democratic to the point they have children stand guard over the ballot box. It is extremely bottom up. Neighborhoods. It’s, a group of neighborhoods have their chosen reps vote, and so on and so forth.

It’s amazing and beautiful.
