Day was a genuinely brilliant interviewer and typically here framed his incisive questions quickly so that it was obvious that he had no fear or favour towards anyone. A lot UK politicians were terrified of him and with good reason. His style has since been much imitated but rarely equalled and being male, white, middle class and middle aged even then, its fair to assume we won't see the like of him again on the BBC or probably anywhere else.
Being blasted every day with propaganda that says the US is so great will do that to you. They found out rather quickly that the US is a boring dystopia where they ended up poorer than they were prior to leaving Cuba.
“Boo hoo! Castro wouldn’t let me own slaves anymore, confiscated the assets I made exploiting them and then tried to arrest me when I helped the CIA plan a coup” 😭🤣
The ownership of slaves was decades before. He did not only nationalize US businesses, but all businesses. And arrested after a coup? Was Castro not arrested and let go, unlike the thousands of political prisoners theyve incarcerated? History is a hell of a drug.
The militiaman that they speak to would have made a better president than Castro. He not only spoke the language more clearly, but he also obviously understood the finer workings of business and corporate relationships between nations.
You mean the militiaman who fully supported Castro because of his integrity? The fact you judge a Cuban president by his ability to speak English says everything.
@@kylo_ben Have you? What a silly question to try to somehow deflect from the reality of Cuba being a great place despite the illegal US trade blockade. I've read studies, I've looked at statistics and I've heard from people that live there, it's a great place to live despite their US enforced poverty. Did you even watch the video? There's overwhelming support for the socialists because this is what real socialism looks like, not the ridiculous caricature you're told to believe from Western propaganda. The journalist came in and was asking for immediate perfection, why are socialists held to impossible standards whilst capitalist countries are not? Quite the opposite in fact as we can clearly see with pretty much any capitalist nation, especially ones aligned with Western interests.
Do you know how many Cubans risked their lives to go to Florida on tiny boats to escape the Castro regime? To this day people try to escape all the time and those people have nothing good to say about Cuba now.
The Fedel Castro's revulotion is not the real revulotion that for the masses, Castro's revulotion is his self interest or his personal interest revulotion,to make himself an absolute leader,with absolute power,the democracy system of government that the people have human right and freedom,was not the mind and the vocabulary of fedil castro,castro hate democracy and freedom and,but castro loved so much in communism, because in this communism,this is the instrument to achieve his goal and ambition to become a communist dictator leader in Cuba,castro organized communist revulotion but his self interest or personal interest revulotion to achieve his goal and ambition to become absulte communist dictator leader in Cuba,that no one can opposed to him,no one can disagree with him no one can question to him and especially no free elections...
