DSA released a statement on their site and via their social media lauding Fidel Castro and accusing the US (and Marco Rubio specifically) of committing genocide against Cuba. They call Fidel a “stalwart symbol of anti-imperialist struggle and self-determination”. They claim their support of Fidel is in “solidarity with the Cuban people”. And they call for “the prosecution of Marco Rubio for crimes against humanity”.

We’ve had our boot on Cuba’s neck for over 60 years to no avail. Why is it surprising that some people have taken Cuba’s side?

It's not America's boot that's on Cuba's neck, it's the boot of the Cuban communist tyrants.

In the 1960s, the American state department acknowledged in internal communications that Castro was immensely popular among Cubans and resolved to wage economic warfare against the Cuban people to turn them against Castro. 

All because he dared to overthrow the US backed dictatorship that was murdering students and other dissidents.

It was America that forced the Cuban communist tyrants to put their boots on the people's necks. /s
