No one is, but my understanding is that banana companies stand to lose a ton of money if Cuba's """debt""" to the US is forgiven. Iirc Cuba has a significant outstanding debt with the US after they successfully overthrew their banana republic, because fruit companies got pissed off and shit themselves when Cuba told them to fuck off and seized their land. Said companies then went to the US government and bitched and moaned about not being able to use pseudo-slave labor for bananas anymore and the US government said, "oh, poor guys, they just wanted to grow bananas and get rich" and told Cuba it now owes the companies that were operating in Cuba a fuck ton of money. If the US government hadn't whored out to banana companies, Cuba would probably be our weirdo little brother with strange ideas about what proper government should look like.

It honestly weirds me out that tankies love to suck Putin and Pooh's dick when Cuba is just right there and seems to be doing socialism right (I've heard Vietnam has been doing pretty well too, and genuinely likes the US despite the US-Vietnam war^1 ). My understanding is that the reason why Cuba struggles with quality of life is mainly a result of the US embargo. Hell, recently they passed a law regarding LGBT people which is supposedly one of the most progressive, if not the most progressive, set of protections for people who are LGBT in the world. Not only that, but supposedly it was the result of Cuban citizens (not politicians) getting together and deciding, collectively, that they needed better protections for people who are LGBT and received a large majority of support.

What the fuck are you doing tankies? Why are you sucking Putin's cock when Cuba's over here being cool?

^1 I've been told that Vietnamese people see the war as validating (they went up against the biggest military in the world and won) and also understand that a lot of the soldiers deployed by the US didn't actually want to be there, which is why they generally have a positive view of Americans.
