    When Castro took over and seized the means of production, many wealthy property owners (of farms, refineries, etc., many closely affiliated with the US) fled to Florida. That was 1959-1963 or so. They remained bitter about it, and passed it on to their children. So, former Cubans in the US still hate the Cuban government. They want to see it fall. Not that they’d benefit from it.

      Don’t forget they also owned slaves; their workers were slaves for the most part. And now their children are “slave catchers” in the US. Fuck Gusanos.
