He literally did hold elections you utter dumbfuck.
There’s no need for name calling. I could just be misinformed, and this could be your chance to change that. I’d appreciate a reply without the condescension.
Everything I’ve read has been to the contrary. Do you have a source on Fidel’s elections? Surely Cuba or its allies must have written at least one article on their free and fair elections in the past fifty years.
I'm sick and tired of westerners barging in and confidently making claims about subjects they know nothing about: If you don't know anything about Cuban elections, you shouldn't be proudly making ignorant assertions.
What exactly have you read that "has been to the contrary"?
So no source then? Lol
God, you western chauvinists are incapable of not operating in bad faith. You barge in here making bullshit claims about things you know nothing about with absolutely no sources of your own, then demand people who know better educate you.
I’m not demanding education. I’m asking you to substantiate your point.
If you are incapable of doing so, then your point is simply considered a rumor. Aggressive and condescending language may convince the uneducated, but you’ve successfully proven nothing.
Why don't you hold yourself to this standard?
Dumbfuck, YOU were the one who made the unsubstantiated claim. But of course, you're to much of an arrogant white supremacist to think that YOU should have to do what you demand of others.
I also KNOW you've seen the links Cowbee has provided, so at this point you're literally just throwing a tantrum and trying to waste time in pure bad faith.
Also fucking wild that you call other people uneducated when you've already admitted you know nothing about the topic.
I can be an educated person who has limited knowledge about a specific topic. Your comments keep teetering on the line between bad faith and abject stupidity.
Reply if you have a credible source. Your word has proven to be worthless.
How about you present your credible souse first, you arrogant fuck. You were the one who made the unsourced claim after all.
Oh, my word has Proven to be worthless has it? PROVEN. Well let's see your proof you smug little shitheal.

You can spare me the lecture on how these are all western propaganda and get to the part where you provide any proof that Fidel Castro held elections. I don’t care if it’s Cuban, Venezuelan, Russian, whoever. If they held elections, there must have at least been one article in fifty years.
Checked your first source and it literally doesn't say anywhere that Castro didn't have elections. So Further proof that you're acting in pure bad faith and just posting random links to try and waste my time.
Edit: Checked another, also doesn't contain your claim, you lying shitstain.
So you watched a video and made assumptions about all of the remaining articles?
It’s no wonder you have such a skewed and ignorant opinion and handle cognitive dissonance with aggressive outbursts.
You need to read more.
Lol, so you admit you're deliberately spamming links regardless of whether they support your claim just so you can waste my time by saying "Oh but you didn't read all of them". And now you're throwing a tantrum that I didn't rise too it.
Fucker, you didn't even read your own sources, don't go telling other people to read more.
They cite his claim that he’ll hold elections in 18 months, but there’s no mention of an election, and he remained in power for 5 decades. What is so hard to comprehend?
How about you find one source stating there were elections, rather than asking for proof of non-existence. It’s like arguing with a Christian over here.
He won't because he can't
