    As someone once part of that community, my fellow Cubans are the most idiotic voting block in the country. They actively vote against their best interests because they’re convinced falsely that JFK, a Democrat, had betrayed them.

    So, Cubans over a certain age all vote Republican. They’re all brainwashed to believe a Democrat is going to bring Soviet style socialism to the country.

    What this article fails to express is that my idiotic former ethnic group don’t have the capacity to self reflect beyond their bullshit South Florida selfish needs.

    I honestly laugh when they get deported or detained because they voted for this. My only real fear is for my 71 year old mom who, despite being enlightened above her fellow Cubans, still happens to live there. At least she has sense to vote against the GOP.

        Ethnic groups are not a race, it’s a culture. You can leave it by leaving and not taking the culture with you, you can join one by showing up consistently
