“Thousands of Cubans took part in rare protests Sunday against the communist government, marching through a town chanting ‘Down with the dictatorship’ and ‘We want liberty.’ The protest in San Antonio de los Banos, a town of some 50,000 people southwest of Havana, came as Cuba is experiencing its toughest phase yet of the coronavirus epidemic, the same day it reported a new daily record of infections and deaths. Some of the demonstrators, mainly young people, shouted insults against President Miguel Diaz-Canel who turned up at the event, according to amateur videos posted online, while others proclaimed: ‘We are not afraid'” AFP reports.
Since we all know that – had this happened a year ago – the Trump fanboys would be screaming their Orange beacon of freedom was solely responsible, National Zero is going to get ahead of this imagined outcome and assign credit to the real President, Joe Biden and the real Vice President, Kamala Harris should the Cuban Communist Party’s reign collapse. We’ll say that the Cuban people were inspired to rise up by Biden and Harris’s “306. Landslide. Blowout. Historic” win against a similarly autocratic and incompetent regime that also didn’t give a fuck about the pandemic.
We’ll make memes of Fidel Castro burning in hell while Biden and Harris laugh, and throw in a crying Pepe the Frog for good measure. They’ll also say “CUBA LIBERADA! BIDEN Y HARRIS LIBERATADORES!” in the Impact typeface, white with a 3px black stroke, as is standard. It’ll be such spectacular fun, it’s tempting to just go ahead and count the chickens before they hatch, act as if the Cuban commies’ end is already a done deal. It’s what the MAGA kids would’ve done.
