@JLperiodista96 Oh for fuck sake It's 30 cents. Get over yourself

#TanteandoCuba Denuncian abuso con el vuelto en la tienda El Encanto de #Camagüey Una nueva denuncia ciudadana vuelve a poner en el centro de las críticas las prácticas comerciales en tiendas que venden en dólares en Cuba. Esta vez, el hecho ocurrió en la tienda El Encanto, en Camagüey, donde una cliente aseguró haber sido víctima de un abuso al momento de recibir su vuelto. Según relató la consumidora, acudió al establecimiento para comprar un paquete de café Regil que se encontraba rebajado a 2.70 dólares. Sin embargo, al llegar a la caja, la dependienta le informó que no tenía cómo devolverle los 30 centavos restantes. La cliente explicó que protestó por la situación, alegando que era su derecho recibir el cambio completo, pero asegura que la respuesta de la trabajadora fue tajante: “Si quiere, no lo lleve”. Aunque finalmente decidió comprar el producto porque necesitaba el café, calificó lo sucedido como “un descaro” y “una falta de respeto al consumidor”. Las quejas por la falta de menudo y la sustitución del vuelto por productos no solicitados o artículos de poco valor se han vuelto frecuentes en varios comercios del país. Consumidores cuestionan que, mientras las tiendas exigen el pago exacto de cada mercancía, no garantizan devolver íntegramente el dinero restante a los clientes.

@Demeter_Erinia I change my music taste every decade or so lmao

Is it true that as you get older you become less interested in new music and keep going back to your old favorite songs you once loved?

@_TereFelipe_ Mongólico jajajajaja la gente te estan riendo a ti

🇨🇺 Soy cubana y no deseo una intervención militar a mi país… No me da la gana que mi país sea colonizado por unos fasc¡stas delincuentes!

Islam is absolutely worse. You can reason with a Communist for the most part, & I don't refer to the pseudo Commies in the States. I know Cubans, most of them in their 70s + that are Communists& have reasoned with them about issues. They actually have the capacity to hear & understand vs hearing to respond. Islam? There's no room for anything but what they demand on behalf of their false prophet.

Which is worse, Islam or communism?

@BillWiIdin LOL You better have some assurances if you're expecting that from >anyone.

Just interviewed a Gen Z candidate who asked about "work-life balance" before the salary. I ended the call right there. If you aren't willing to give me 110% of your soul for the first 5 years, you don't deserve a seat at the table. Participation trophies have ruined this country.

@nickshirleyy I go to Cuba alone all the time lmao this isn't that big of a deal, you're acting like it's North Korea lmao

🚨Inside Communist-Controlled Cuba: As Cuba faces its largest humanitarian crisis in years amid growing tensions with the US, I went to see what 60+ years of communism has done to a country. Within 24 hours I was planning my escape out of the country after being followed by their intelligence agents, and a 2 star general waited to interrogate me outside my hotel room at 4 AM. Right now Cuba has no oil or gas, 7/10 people are going hungry, there is no medicine and some haven't even had eggs in a year. In communism there is no freedom of speech or press, and I was almost taken hostage for asking about communism. This is a look into Cuba like never before, no one truly knows how bad it is until now. Like and share this video like wildfire!

@kevjetsky @TheLaurenChen I'm nit disagreeing with that, but they can still look up whatever they want

@WulfTheGh0st @TheLaurenChen Bro I’m Cuban, first of all Cubans needs people/family in the US or other countries to pay for the internet bc you cannot do it with your Cuban pesos.

I've been to Cuba The only internet we could access was in the public areas of the hotel We bought cards with codes to access internet by the minute There was a literal "app store," a physical store were locals could go to install pre-approved apps Poorest place I've seen

Nick Fuentes was never on the right. He was always a gay Nazi Mexican posing as a white supremacist for a Democrat op. Alex Jones was never on our side. He was always a fat, insane propagandist that tried to profit off of the deaths of American children.. Candace Owens was never a conservative. She was always a duplicitous narcissist that used great men to gain fame and then, once they saw through her mask, burned it all down and was willing to torment her “friend’s” widow to profit from his death. Tucker Carlson was never MAGA. He was always a CIA plant at Fox that hated Trump and was only kept in line by his producers and the network. Now, he sees a market with over two billion potential subscribers, and he’ll say anything to capture it. Joe Kent was never a Republican. He was a soldier turned spook and failed political Democrat in WA who used Trump and MAGA to finally make it into the political arena. The rest of the Halal Right, from “But I’m a good Jew” Dave Smith to the fake and gay Haji Twins, and all of the idiots in between, were always populist rejects that used the insanity of the left and the popularity of MAGA to make themselves rich. Now they are all showing you their true colors. In reality, though, they are no different than the left. They have no values. They have no principles. Fame and fortune, power and influence, that is all they want. Recognize the op now, and you’ll never miss it later.

@kevjetsky @TheLaurenChen Yes it is. My wife lives there and speaks to me every single day - she can look up whatever she wants.

@WulfTheGh0st @TheLaurenChen Not the same reality for Cubans

@alepmalagon @TheLaurenChen But it isn't like that anymore, so why the need to lie and say it still is?

@WulfTheGh0st @TheLaurenChen This is fairly recent. Pre-2018 there was no cellular internet open to the general public and people had to visit hotels or certain parks on the city to connect to the WiFi installed there.

@LarryTaunton Lmao. "Don't surrender your passport" is the EASIEST WAY to get arrested in Cuba. Fucking moron.

Oh, my, this is not the way to do it. 🧵 I was in Cuba and, like Nick, I had a run-in with the police. BUT I didn’t do it like this. As a veteran of this game, here are some rules I follow when in totalitarian states: 1. Don’t tweet in real time. Post you’re in one country while you’re actually in another, and post nothing negative about your host country until you’re safely out of it. There’s not a cop in the world who doesn’t love harassing a smug American. 2. If you’re doing something illegal, make sure it’s vital to your purpose. Don’t get arrested for something stupid (e.g., Otto Warmbier stealing a poster in North Korea). 3. Be friendly even when provoked. Americans often forget they aren’t in America, and when an injustice is done to them they react angrily. Don’t. 4. When questioned by police, stick to the truth as nearly as possible as they seldom ask questions to which they don’t already know the answers. (PRO TIP: You can often discern the degree to which you’re in harm’s way by who is questioning you: If they’re young, junior officers, they’ll probably ask for a selfie and let you go; If, however, they’re older, grizzled senior officers, you’re only a step or two from a black hole.) 5. Keep your answers brief, even one word if possible. For example: “Why are you here?” “Tourism.” “You like Russia?” “Yes.” “What do you like about it?” “Borscht.” I hate borscht, but you get the point. I’ve been with Americans who, under questioning, couldn’t shut up and revealed damning details. 6. NEVER surrender your passport. This is the oldest trick in the book for detaining you without seeming to detain you. 7. Never enter a place illegally. People ask me how I got into the WEF or the USAID compound in Cairo or some other place. Simple. I walked through the front doors like I owned it and no one dared question me. Why is this important? Because if they are outraged that you breached their security and level threats of arrest, your defense is obvious and almost certainly on film: You let me in! 8. Hide in plain sight. When people are up to something, they typically look suspicious. Unnatural behavior will give you away. Watch how ordinary people look when they’re just going from Point A to Point B and practice it. If you see police, instead of avoiding them—which is suspicious as hell—approach and ask for directions. 9. Use a camera almost never and only a camera on your phone. Showing up in Cuba with a camera crew says you’re not there for the cigars and rum! But no one, not even in totalitarian states, finds it unusual that you have a phone. They do, too. When you use it to film, do it openly. If authorities don’t see you, great. If they do and stop you, play the stupid tourist who didn’t know any better and more than likely they’ll believe you. But if you’re seen filming covertly, then you’re a spy and no amount of charm will save you. Again, hide in plain sight. 10. Once you’ve filmed something important, fire it off to someone you trust at home and then delete it from your phone. (Don’t forget to dump it from the “Recently Deleted” bin, too. The secret police will look there. Trust me.) 11. Don’t carry any weapons nor anything that could be construed as a weapon unless a) you believe the threat to you physically outweighs the risk of being caught with a weapon; b) you know how to use it; and c) you’re actually prepared to use it. 12. Never think that you blend in. Of all the dumb travel guidebook advice, “blend in” is the dumbest. Whatever your color or ethnicity, everything about you screams “American!” Just roll with it. 13. Don’t let ego do you in. Some people cannot stay off their phones and must put everything online for their adoring social media public. If your goal is to expose, say, human trafficking in Colombia, be contented with getting that intel to the right people. You want to being EFFECTIVE, not famous. Notoriety is your enemy. Let’s pray for young Nick! I admire his doggedness.

NICK FUENTES IS OUT OF THE CLOSET We told you so... Nick Fuentes, now BY HIS OWN ADMISSION, says he is a DEMOCRAT. We told you it was an op. We told you he was not on "OUR SIDE." It was never "INFIGHTING." Some of us just saw this coming from a mile away.

@TheLaurenChen In fact, I even downloaded ANIMAL FARM. IN SPANISH so my wife + kids + extended family there could watch it with me

@rawmilkhoney Fuck...That. That's not attractive to me at all lmao.

@ShayUnleashed Yawn. Me personally, I'm way more comfortable in the hood than out of it.

As a White girl in a White community, this is what real privilege looks like: I never have to worry about: • Walking alone at night • Getting robbed • Home invasions • Car theft • Random vandalism • Or whether the people around me have my back Just the occasional couple arguing and parents bitching on Facebook about kids speeding on scooters. High trust, high standards, low crime. Living around White people is a privilege, not a right. If you disagree, you’ve either never experienced it… or you’re lying.

@unculecubano Ellos *quieren* estar gordos. Recuerdo que mis amigos de allá me lo decían.

Es un cubano emigrar de Cuba y a los 3 meses es un obeso móbido compulsivo...

@TraditionSarah You just had to do the meme though huh?

@jwsherrod I spent my ENTIRE childhood being fucked with like this in MUCH worse ways. And I'm >mixed.

My daughter experienced anti-white racism. Yesterday I took my almost ten-year-old daughter to the playground. She was playing with some other kids, and then came over and said to me: "Dad, that black girl over there told me to go play somewhere else. She said she doesn't like white people. She actually said that to my face! That's not very nice." I just told her, "No, that's not very nice. We don't treat people like that, do we?" "No," she said. I'm not making a huge deal out of this, because I'm not a race-essentialist. The Christian Nationalists call me a liberal for this, but I really do believe in MLK's dream that people will be judged for the content of their character, not the color of their skin. My daughter wasn't super upset about it, she was just shocked that someone would actually say that to her. I also didn't make a big deal out of it because there's no reason to. It was a good lesson to her that sometimes people are mean based on superficial details, and an opportunity to reinforce to her that we don't do that to other people. I hope that girl on the playground grows out of that, and I hope my daughter continues to see any race-based bullying as wrong, no matter which racial group it's coming from.
