Idiots cry for Castro........ Some of Bolt's Idiots
What his supporters say: Castro stood up to the United States, which had exploited the largest island in the Caribbean ever since it won independence from Spain in 1898. A fiery champion of the people, he ended years of corrupt rule and ushered in an era of access to education, health and housing. Despite all efforts by the USA to cripple it economically wit a 55year trade embargo.
What his enemies say: Castro has turned Cuba into the world’s largest open air prison, with all forms of dissent stifled and travel, business and freedom of thought forbidden.
The idiots in this narrative are media persons that simply find it so easy to make statements that without any context. Steve Price finds it easy to call Castro a Despot no tyrant and murdering bastard. How did the Cubans give rise to on man? Unless they rose up against a Military Tryrant and despot who was even worse than Castro who provided some hope for a change. Batista gets no mention from Price who hasn't a clue how many people were disappeared and killed by the military dictatorship either directly or indirectly. Neither does Price actually know how many people died due Castro's takeover. So I'd quite confidently declare Steve Price to be the idiot typical of a Cuban who fled because he faced somewhat more than just wealth redistribution. Why do the stories of 100,000 capitalists hold more sway than 11.5 million Cubans today. They have housing, health education, music ballet sport all available to them on even a greater scale than than we have in Australia or America. Yes Steve Price speaking like an uneducated idiot failed to mention the Cuban revolution was a movement and not just the response of one man. It was a movement against the clandestine influence of America and the despotic generals it supported throughout the Americas.
The poverty Price mentioned on The Project was shared by all Cubans and it was poverty enforced on them not by Castro but the 55 year trade embargo enforced on them by the USA and it's allies simply because their companies were nationalized. Cuba's exports sugar coffee and tobacco and tourism. They were all forcibly reduced by Price's heroes in the free world, however the Cubans endured. Even when the Soviet Union broke up and the Cold War ended the American embargo on Cuba held but Cubans still endured. It's hard to comprehend why America had that strict embargo on a small island like Cuba because it didn't on other socialist countries like China. All this complex history is reduced to one man by Steve Price and Andrew Bolt. Who pray tell are the idiots?
The idiots like Bolt and price attribute history to the actions of great men rather then the movements they often become leaders of . These blinkered morons are ready to malign the Catholic Church for it's acknowledgement of Castro not one pope gave him recognition but 3. Nelson Mandela did and these less than educated broadcasters stand up and call these leaders of billions idiots simply because they are able to explain and put revolutions like the Cuban, the Vietnamese into context that in Castros case liberated 11.5 million Cubans from some 30% of the country from which they try to say represented the real and well off Cuba. Sorry Price Cuba didn't fall to privateer bandits as you would like us to believe. Yes Price believes Franco was the savior of Spain, Pinochet of Argentina, and Pepe Mijica a disaster for Uraguay. By the way there's far less Racism in Cuba or racists a legacy that the revolution also guaranteed. Yet another aspect of Cuban life that goes untold.
Price's idiocy never buckled when he even turned to Castro's disaffected daughter for his evidence that Castro was a despot. She lived in Florida along with branches of the family that were part of the inner circle of the Batista government. She wrote a book and Price turns to for his proof that Castro was an arsehole " book created a rift even among Castro relatives in exile: Juana filed a
suit in Spain in 1998 arguing the book defamed her and Fidel’s parents.
A court ordered the publisher to pay Juana Castro $45,000." It seems a family already divided was divided even more and it's so called truths turned to by Price as evidence are very much questionable.It turns out they were regarded as mere fantasies of a bitter child one of a near dozen who made no such allegations that would support her. Among these kids were a nuclear physicist, a surgeon who headed the world basketball association. It would seem Price is clutching at straws. What sort of radio producer was he with that sort of respect for evidence or context?Divide and rule: Castro family torn by dysfunction and disagreements
FitzSimons' 'gorilla' vs a child's 'ape'. Spot the hypocrite
WHAT’S worse? A 13-year-old girl who calls a black footballer an “ape”
in earshot of maybe 10 people? Or a 55-year-old Fairfax commentator,
Peter FitzSimons, who last week called a black sports official a
“gorilla” in earshot of tens of thousands?
Andrew Bolt started with this as a blog last week and then turned what was a stale idea into his column. I'm sure it became part of his discussions on The Steve Price Show on which he rides like a kid on the tail of Price,s conservative comet. Bolt without doubt would have doubled down and used it on his Bolt Report as well. Repetition is hardly work it's a lazy Susan of ideas that started with Bolt being put in his box when he attacked Adam Goodes way back when was it last year? This one trick pony tells us he works 70 hours a week ho ho.
It's all about Bolt's ego and little or nothing to do with the circumstances or context of what Fitzsimons said. Bolt raises the issue of color because he's a "racist". Fitzsimons was describing an overseas official by the way not even in Australia as a "gorilla" for being a bully a thug and not for his color. The circumstances are grossly different from the case of Adam Goodes. To repeat Andrew Bolt yet again shows he's an out and out racist drawing attention yet again to the issue of color being central and like a dog with a bone or possibly a gorilla Bolt has gabbed hold of it only to show what a dumb arse bully he in fact is. It helps that Fitzsimons is a Republican and works for the opposition but that's just a bonus.
ABC: sour on Trump, sweet on Castro
IF only Donald Trump was a dictator who killed and jailed his opponents
and enslaved his people. Maybe then the ABC would give Trump the respect
it’s now showered on the belatedly dead Fidel Castro.
Idiots cry for Castro
“ ... (the idiot) will still gyrate in excitement like a dog seeing a bone if during a visit to Cuba he finds before him the hand and the bearded, exuberant and monumental presence of the “Maximum Leader”. And, naturally, being a perfect idiot, he will find plausible explanations for the worst disasters created by Castro. If there is hunger on the island, the cruel US embargo is to blame; if there are exiles, it’s because they are incapable of understanding the revolutionary process; if there are prostitutes, it isn’t due to the poverty on the island but rather because Cubans now have the freedom to use their bodies as they wish.”
More tears for Castro from Left-wing politicians, and a perfect description of exactly this kinds of idiot.
Race law defenders vilify whites
The man with the Mona Lisa Smirk can't be believed
It seems defenders of the Racial
Discrimination are actually OK with vilifying people - as long as
they're white. Labor frontbencher Terri Butler defames white students -
and only grudgingly now apologises. Meanwhile activist Noel Pearson is
accused of twice calling women a "f...ing white c...".
