There's literally a u.s. government document on a u.s. government website quoting leaders o the u.s. government saying "Castro is too popular so we're going to make people starve until they blame him and overthrow the Cuban government"

It's over 50 years old

The starvation of the cuban people has been used for decades as proof of the evil of the cuban government

There's also us documents effectively saying that they made up shit about North Korea, China, the ussr, etc. thanks to the freedom of information act; but it clearly doesn't matter since the majority believe the propaganda anyways.

No like for real i posted about this recently but i told a guy i work with about this and it was like man ray trying to return Patrick's wallet. "We said we'd starve them. We blockaded them. They're starving." And the guy ends up going "castro starved his own people" at the end
