Well finally castro has gone ....not my favourite of all human beings .....still some brainwashed fool will miss him .....although.......... he did what he did because he got away with it .......
much like all leaders they fuck over the masses and they buy it .....if you are not aware of how you are being fucked over ....then you do not know any different .....
The simple fact is if you want to be lead ...there wil be plenty people willing to string you along......
if you are dumb enough and not well informed enough to know .......human beings are evil by nature .....its a fact .....its perception ...one mans good is another mans evil .....simple .....
not all humans portray evil in the form of a satanical image .....there are plenty wolves walk amongst the sheep .......but they are so led in many ways they are not aware ....nothing is ever as it appears .......
Time and time again ...pillars of communities ......so called good men/women..... who appear to be happily married ....end up robbing honest so called people ........
Honesty is a variable .....and the people who try hard to demonstrate it the hardest ..........are ususally the worst .....
all human beings have underbellies /agendas/modes ......they ply themselves to appear like they care ....but as always ........ evil prevails and it sometimes is so cleverly dispensed in open view of the fools ...they are not clever or wise enough to realise its right in front of their face .......
we are meant to believe evil/bad/sinister...has a certain image personna which they befall......not necessarily so .......
Fidel Castro, Cuba’s revolutionary leader, dies aged 90
The comandante overthrew Batista, established a communist state and survived countless American assassination attempts
Fidel Castro has died at the age of 90, Cuban state television announced on Saturday, ending an era for the country and Latin America.
The revolutionary icon, one of the world’s best-known and most controversial leaders, survived countless US assassination attemptsand premature obituaries, but in the end proved mortal after suffering a long battle with illness.
The announcement was long expected, given the former president’s age and health problems, but when it came it was still a shock: thecomandante – a figurehead for armed struggle across the developing world – was no more. It was news that friends and foes had long dreaded and yearned for respectively.
The Communist party and state apparatus has prepared for this moment since July 2006 when Castro underwent emergency intestinal surgery and cededpower to his brother, Raúl, who remains in charge.
Fidel wrote occasional columns for the party paper, Granma, and made very occasional public appearances – most recently at the 2016 Communist party congress – but otherwise remained invisible.
Confirmation of his death will trigger celebrations in Miami, the centre of Cuba’s exile community, and mourning among leftwing admirers around the world. For many Cubans on the island who grew up in his shadow, simultaneously respecting and resenting him, it will be a moment of profound ambivalence.
One thing all could agree on was that this extraordinary figure left his mark on history.
More than half a century ago, his guerrilla army of “bearded ones” replaced Fulgencio Batista’s corrupt dictatorship with communist rule that challenged the US and turned the island into a cold-war crucible.
The US had long counted on Castro’s mortality as a “biological solution” to communism in the Caribbean but,since officially succeeding his brother in 2008, Raúl has cemented his own authority while overseeing cautious economic reforms, and agreeing the momentous deal to restore diplomatic relations between Cuba and the US in late 2014, ending more than five decades of hostility.
By Raúl’s own admission, however, Fidel is irreplaceable. By force of charisma, intellect and political cunning the lawyer-turned-guerrilla embodied the revolution. Long before his passing, however, Cubans had started to move on, with increased migration to the US and an explosion of small private businesses.
His greatest legacy is free healthcare and education, which have given Cuba some of the region’s best human development statistics. But he is also responsible for the central planning blunders and stifling government controls that – along with the US embargo – have strangled the economy, leaving most Cubans scrabbling for decent food and desperate for better living standards.
The man who famously declared “history will absolve me” leaves a divided legacy. Older Cubans who remember brutal times under Batista tend to emphasise the revolution’s accomplishments. Younger Cubans are more likely to rail against gerontocracy, repression and lost opportunity. But even they refer to Castro by the more intimate name of Fidel.
Since largely vanishing from public view he has been a spectral presence, occasionally surfacing in what became a trademark tracksuit, to urge faith in the revolution. It was a long goodbye which accustomed Cubans to his mortality.
Exiles in Florida, the heart of the diaspora which fled communist rule, are expected to celebrate. Previous false reports of Castro’s death triggered cavalcades of cheering, flag-waving revellers.
