Im a different poster than the last person and generally unfamiliar with the Cuban electoral structure, are they able to run non-communist/non-Marxist candidates? If they cannot legally do so they do not have free elections using the standard definition of “free elections”.
Yes they are, even wiki would show you there’s 28 unaffiliated members in Nation Assembly, and also you may read about how it look here - Cuba is way more democratic than literally every capitalist country.
Right? It’s easy to bloviate about “free, democratic fair elections” when you’re the world’s superpower. When you live NEXT to the world’s superpower, there’s no such thing.
Fantastically well said. Cuba’s a very democratic country, moreso than the US, so when people accuse it of not being so that can only mean they wish to remove the safeguards preventing US recolonization.
Canada and Mexico both live next to the USA and both have freer and more fair elections than the USA so Im not sure your claim even makes sense on the surface.
According to another poster Cuba has non-Marxist candidates who can run. IF Cubans have the ability to completely cast aside the government, regardless of ideology, then they have free elections. If they cannot then they don’t have free elections.
If giving the Cubans the choice to no longer pursue Marxism resulted in them choosing to no longer follow Marxism why should that be stopped? If that was what the population wanted why should the state force them to adhere to an unwanted ideology?
That idiot literally thinks Castro is still alive and that Cuba has a “throne”, don’t act like westerners have any idea about the specifics of Cuban elections law when they’re giving their ignorant opinions of it.
Westerners continue to be the most brainwashed people on earth.

Yes, you can, though they lose because the Cuban people ultimatley support their system.
“Free” elections in Cuba would just mean immediate US vassalage. Influencing elections in the Caribbean and Latin America is a practically a US hobby.

We said free and fair which is not the same as free and democratic.
Okay, I fixed it. Now what?

Have you been paying attention at all?
Trump is literally actively “joking” about annexing Canada this week, and they’ve been exporting MAGA brain rot to Canada for years.
Trump also threatened to unilaterally invade/bomb Mexico to attack cartels.
How is that not directly interfering with “free and fair elections”
