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
I mean, singling these losers out is cool, but it seems weird to call out all of DSA for the ugly behavior of these two bad actors. After all, this is a statement coming from within DSA. Its not coming from the Cubans themselves. The fucking President took time to meet with them, which would seem to suggest Cuban organizers are largely supportive of these outreach efforts.
Giving these two tickets was a mistake. But organizing the trip, getting Americans to visit the island, and putting them face-to-face with a bonafide AES state leader should be a huge mark in DSA’s favor.
If this is how they act, this isn’t a mark in their favor it’s a fucking disgrace and Cubans will soon move on to another group with less chauvinist predispositions
Other groups send delegations to Cuba regularly, including PSL and Cuba-specific groups like those opposing the embargo. I’m not sure if FRSO has a delegation or not, or whether they join some of the amalgamation delegations that go every do often (they probably do one of those options).
