Cuba has so far refused to enter into an agreement with the US, with President Miguel Díaz-Canel saying he’ll only negotiate with Washington under equal footing based on respect and has refused to entertain a deal which would undermine his country’s sovereignty.


Well then, go fuck yourself, my dude.

I don't want to hear about your fucking problems, and nobody else gives a shit either.

You can't come to the bargaining table with nothing and make demands.

That blood is on YOUR hands. The death of your people is YOUR fault.


"Equal Footing"??? What the fuck are you smoking, Miguel? You're King Shit of Turd Mountain. You're nothing. You're nobody.

Your "Sovereignty"?

Do you even know what that word means? You're sovereign right now. And you're doing a bang up fucking job at it and your people are all going to die miserably because of you. Maybe the people of Cuba don't deserve sovereignty.


America isn't run by no-good college "educated" white women anymore, and never will be again. You don't like our terms, lil Miggy? Maybe you should go beg China or Russia for money and see what happens to you and your so-called sovereignty.
