2. Yup! It's been their yarn all these nasty years. The pre-Trump idiots always bought it.

Their most persistant claim is that it's been proven that socialism never works. They don't seem to have any grasp of history, or bother to learn.

They're profoundly ignorant of to what Washington has spent of the public's treasury investing in destroying socialism, year after year after decade after decade, and the grotesque toll it has taken upon the human race in the targeted countries, not to mention the side-effect of forcing US taxpayers to have to pay far more in taxes financing this massive investment of their own earned salaries (minus the vast chunk-a-change never required in taxes of corporations and the wealthiest, of course).

Ignorance and apathy. They don't know and they don't bother to learn.

I suspect I had a very similar reaction to yours, but felt it was appropriate to get the message through that at least, Biden is moving to assist someone in Cuba, even though the public believes the wild crappola propaganda which has been flowing around continually, as in every day, since at least 1954, when Eisenhower overthrew the Guatemalan elected progressive President with the help of the Dulles Brothers, one the head of the CIA.

In time, people will ALL know, no matter how long they've believed the bogus stuff fed to them their whole lives for the sake of power and politics. More would know now, if they ever bothered to take their heads out.
