Canada's prime minister made an announcement expressing his - and his wife's - regrets over the death of Fidel Castro. Spoke glowingly about his leadership as a revolutionary. And so on in bullshit whitewash.
Most Western leaders expressed the same sentiment, how sad it was he died and what a great leader he was.
Only one western politician bothered to mention that Fidel was a brutal dictator who used terror tactics to enslave the Cuban people and engaged in horrific communist practices to leave Cuba as an impoverished country and an enslaved population.
That politician was Donald J. Trump.

Which brings up the question, why are these stupid fucking bastards like Justin Trudeau lauding a sociopathic son of a bitch like Castro?

I go into any Chinese restaurant, I order the General Tso''s over steamed rice, they ask me how spicy do I want it, I tell them as spicy as they can make it, I then go back to my place to watch episodes of Firefly for the 90 thousandth time. Now I can't even do that without being reminded of the whole goddamn world dying around me.
