User:RD/9k/Trotskyists care about Cuba (Q42,11)

Main entry

U.S. Trotskyists care about Cuba -> this seems intuitively false but you see them actually in support now so that's very confusing. maybe it's worth investigating the reasons why.
point in favor: referred to creation of Cuba as Communist revolution. [1]
point in favor: put defending Cuba next to overthrowing U.S. capital. [2]
point against: if they overthrow U.S. capital, they can hypothetically create Trotskyism in the United States and then start pressuring Cuba. look at both of these videos and you see a subtext that they talk way less about Cuba than their own aims and are almost mentioning Cuba just to make themselves look good.
point for: RCI claims "capitalism was abolished" in Cuba. point against: claims Cuban revolution happened in contradiction to Stalin as a generic anti-imperialist movement.
