They are only bothered by the regime and it's repressive system.
Not the people.
"rapid response brigades" are organized groups of thugs.

But thanks for again confirming that you lied and that they are no
mercenaries.

Nope as show by international press re****ts.
people conform, no more, no less.

The fact that so many try to flee the country and that the regime had to
impose a thight system of travel restrictions on the people that only
allows people to go abroad with an exit visa shows that that is a clear
lie.

About 500,000 risked sanctions by entering in the US visa lottery.
As people can't express themselves freely there is no way to guage their
true sup****t for the regime.

It is impossible to gauge the extent of Cubans' loyalty to Castro.
American-style opinion polls are not conducted.

"There is no free speech, limited free enterprise and little political
freedom on the island. That his communist regime is not universally
loved is underscored by the departure of thousands of Cubans each year
in risky ocean crossings to Florida."

"The number of those who oppose Castro and his command-style economic
ideals is hard to gauge.

Only a few do speak out"

A sham anyone sees through and denounced as such by the UN rap****teur.
