Wrong... You are the brainwashed one... Socialism always leads to communism and in your country you are also losing individual rights. Just like democrats are attempting to do in the U.S. meanwhile they falsely claim "we want to protect voters" when they want to protect THEIR FRAUD meanwhile demanding to take away rights from Americans whom dare to be POLITICAL OPPONENTS...
The China Biden regime alongside democrat leaders and RINOs are using the same tactics used in Cuba, Venezuela, China, etc... Criminalizing the political opposition when their own people in Antifa, BLM, etc have been attacking and murdering police officers, business owners and Trump supporters/their political opposition meanwhile also burning U.S, cities, looting etc, etc...

I am not in the US and think BLM are a bunch of racist scum bag's though they did have some justification as black people in the US do get a very raw deal at the hands of your law enforcement and your nation has a very long history of run away racism.

And one other thing I believe Trump won that election, I think Trump was doing the right thing and Biden so far is a disaster but has taken your nation back to being a pawn of the Ultra mega rich corporate over lords and internationalists.

I also think Trump was no where near as right wing as some of you think, Oh I would disagree with him on that health care system but it was never a match for our NHS anyway so it was a failure either way but at least it gave those whom work for minimum wage in your nation a chance to get well if they are sick and to receive treatment that in any Sane, Christian and decent nation would be free to the poorest anyway.
So I am afraid you are completely wrong about me and my opinions.

I am British and proud of OUR Labour Traditions and no they are NOT commie they are Socialist and for your information we had many Labour governments but were always Allies of the US, your problem is as a nation you have been BRAINWASHED, ever since the McCarthy era in fact.
The RED SCARE was in part justified as Joseph Stalin was definitely NOT a nice man and under him and his successors the Soviet union DID pose a threat to us but despite that the US PROGRAMMED it's people into Anti Communist sentiment, at the school level, media level and government level.
If you can not think for yourself and use the brain that GOD gave you (that's right I am a religious guy once again proof I am NOT A commie) then I can not help you.
Or are you just trolling.
You should know better, I am also no friend of the bloody human right's abusing, organ stealing, mass murdering Commies in China so do not try to draw lines there.
You want to know were I stand here it is.
A nation should look after it's own people FIRST this is not racist it is common sense.
UN REGULATED Capitalism is a very bad thing but good for crook's in power on the take and corrupt politicians as well as those whom have plenty of money already but leads to the majority of that nation being wage slaves or owned in some way.
Communism which is socialism gone too far is also equally bad but indeed both systems give rise to tyrants and both systems end up #ting on the people of the nation under there control.
Regulated capitalism with soft socialism is perfect, it worked for decades in the UK until the tug of war between the Capitalists and Communists tore it apart as the Communists infiltrated our unions causing runaway strikes while the capitalists used this as an excuse to destroy the socialist implemented structures that had helped our nation recover after WW2 since they had always hated them.
Until the 1980's homelessness was almost completely absent in the UK, our national health service first proposed by a Liberal (BRITISH political party also once called the Wigs and one of the oldest political party's in the world by the way) but implemented by a Labour Government until it was corrupted under both the Tory's (Conservatives) and New Labour (A perversion of Labour that adopted Conservative ideals over there traditional Labour ones) was the best health system in the world AND if was available to all and Equal for all but ran alongside Private health providers such as Harley Street doctors and Bupa since Snob's and the extremely rich liked to go private and since we were never communist BOTH systems existed here.
I could go on and on and on but the level of illiteracy on this issue is staggering, but then they don't want to you to think for yourself no do they because then you would be dangerous, now be a good team player and forget everything you have been told this is the truth there truth not THE truth but there truth and you will live by that and die by that just as Christ said he whom lives by the Sword shall DIE by the Sword.
I read the first sentence of your diatribe and quit . I hope someone else finds it useful, because ill never know you Communist boot sniffer . America is the Wild West and your on your own here . We are Cowboys & Gunslinger…. So you better be better than the next guy to survive here and that part I love .

Careful not to cheer the protests. I wonder if the protests are NED, NGO based? remember that story how one music tried to start protest with music lyrics a few years back?
If these protests are legit i have no issues with legit protests.
Cuba is State sponsored socialism which is the evil brother of communism.

Bernie is a socialist, not a communist, I know this confuses people but they are not the same. Also, it's important to understand that socialism or communism as economic systems do not necessarily describe a form of government. Indeed, several political regimes that have been labeled as such are, in fact, authoritarian or dictatorships. Cuba is a dictatorship and is almost the complete opposite of socialism.
The closest you get to a socialist country is probably Sweeden. The UK is sort of socialist light they have a lot of policies in place. For example worker protection in much stronger in the UK vs the United States.
True socialism as a country has not really been tried because capitalism always intertwines with it.

You voiced some fringe beliefs in the past but this one is extra special.
Furthermore how does this have to do with Cuba's protests?

Socialism/Communism is a failure EVERY time it has been tried....and running death toll of over 100 million DEAD.
But, too many Bernie bros still want to believe, as many of them took basket weaving degrees reeking of marxism, and well, if communism is a failure, then this confirms that their degrees ARE worthless and that they are fools and wasted 4 years of their lives and countless thousands of dollars in pursuit of idiocy and failure.
They are emotionally invested in this garbage and can't accept reality.
TOO BAD.
MILLIONS of human LIVES free of homicidal communism are far more important than your butthurt "feelings"....
Dear socialist/communist/antifa morons
- yes, you ARE morons, are on the wrong side of humanity, and HAVE been fooled and YES your marxism degrees ARE WORTHLESS.
WORTH-LESS !!!!!!!
Let that sink in...
Now, MOVE ON.....and GROW UP.....

False, false, and false...
First of all Bernie Sanders has always been a communist. He was a member of the communist party. What he has done is attempting to use another name, as a "social democrat" to claim he is not a communist anymore... But guess what?... Social democrats are communists just like this man was...
Sweden is not a socialist country. That's just an ignorant claim... In order for a country to be socialist that country must have a socialist economy, and the economy of Sweden is CAPITALIST...
India is a socialist country... Cuba, Venezuela, North Korea, etc have socialist economies...
When you make such a false claim that "Sweden is a socialist country" you are only spreading disinformation and lies.

So free education and healthcare for everyone isn’t socialist?
The myth that Sweden is a utopian paradise where all the social problems have been solved and that you can have high growth with high taxes has been touted by Bernie Sanders as well as the many Millennials that follow him.
The Swedish Economy
The glory days for Sweden economically took place prior to the 1960s, when they had a free economy, low regulation and lots of wealth. Between 1870 and 1950, Sweden had the highest per capita income growth in the world and became one of the richest countries, behind only Switzerland, the U.S., and Denmark.
In the 1960s, Sweden started to redistribute wealth, which brought wealth creation to a halt. By the mid-1990s, the country had growing economic problems because it continued to redistribute wealth it wasn’t creating. It was at this juncture that many of the wealthy (ABBA band members included) and entrepreneurs were leaving Sweden. In 1994, Sweden began implementing the following measures designed to reverse this trend:
Reduce Regulation
Reduce Government Spending
Reform their Welfare Programs
Shrink their Government
Sweden has continued on this path for the last 24 years, which has brought them a modest rate of growth, but not nearly as robust as pre-60s levels due to government taxation remaining high.
Many view Sweden as socialist. However, the country is, in fact, very pro-capitalism, but does it with redistribution through taxes. Personal income is taxed at a rate of 61.85 percent, plus a 7 percent social security tax rate for employees. On top of these taxes, Sweden also has a 25 percent consumption tax. For these sacrifices of financial freedom, this is what Sweden offers their citizens in benefits:
