The UN General Assembly on Thursday voted by a large margin against the United States’ economic and trade embargo against Cuba, first imposed in 1960. A total of 187 States voted for the resolution put forward each year against the embargo with only the US and Israel voting against and Ukraine abstaining.
Swear to God, it’s just sheer fucking stubbornness that’s keeping the embargo up at this point. It failed, we need to get over it, there’s no sense in reducing both countries’ prosperity for a matter of pride.
The Cuban oligarchy that ran the whole island on slave labor hasn’t gotten their land back yet. Their children have a birthright to recover and their control over Florida still drives the USA’s relationship with Cuba.

Fucking Florida.
I recently visited Florida. Florida is great, it’s the Floridians that I can’t stand.
*Fucking Cubans. They exist all over the country and overwhelmingly support the embargo
