The Cuban rulerMiguel Diaz-Canel celebrated Human Rights Day on December 10 and Cubans took the opportunity to remind him on social networks that there is nothing to celebrate in a dictatorship withmore than 1,000 political prisoners in prisons.
“Cubans with Rights. That's what we are thanks to the Revolution, which gave the land to those who work it; that empowered the people, without distinction of gender, skin color or social status and that planted the country with schools and hospitals with free and universal access. “This is the Revolution,” the ruler tweeted.
According to the also first secretary of theCommunist Party of Cuba (PCC) -only legal one in the Cuban totalitarian regime-, "during the year 2023 Cuba has strengthened the legal and institutional framework for the protection and promotion of Human Rights."
“Important mechanisms were created, including the Directorate of Defense in the Ministry of Justice, the Cuban Observatory on Gender Equality, the Cuban Association of People with Intellectual Disabilities and the Cuban Color Social Laboratory,” he listed.
His words were answered with a volley of hundreds of comments that reminded him of the repression, inequality and lack of rights and freedoms prevailing under his mandate, defined as “continuity” of a power that has subjected Cubans for more than 60 years. years.
“Cubans without Rights, that's what we are. “You were the first to order the repression of the Cuban people when they demonstrated demanding Freedom and Rights,” Taoro replied.
“Cuba Failed State. Communism is misery and hunger,” said a tweeter, sharing a photo of Díaz-Canel with a child in her arms who tells her in a balloon: “my parents don't have dollars to buy in MLC stores.”
Another mocked the wording of the tweet from the ruler appointed by dictator Raúl Castro. “It looks like a paragraph for a 6th grade history final test. What land? What empowerment? Which schools and hospitals? Misery is what they have given. There is no better nickname than the one they have given you,” he told her.
“The right to die of hunger and misery is the only thing that the Cuban has, tyrant, dictator,” said one Internet user. Another reminded him of Article 37 of the 1940 Constitution, which protected “the right to assemble peacefully and without weapons, and to parade and associate for all lawful purposes of life, in accordance with the corresponding legal norms, without further limitations than "essential to ensure public order."
“Every day I am more convinced that communism is a psychiatric pathology that was not included in the treaty of these diseases, because it cannot be that you really believe all that fallacy for almost 65 years,” said another.
“What rights Díaz-Canel? In Cuba there are no rights when you are arrested for expressing yourself freely. There are more than 1,000 political prisoners for peacefully protesting. Where are your rights?” asked an X user.
“Puppet, this is what happens to us Cubans, just for not agreeing with the PCC sect. You were only elected by the Castro-Espín. Dare and make free choices and you will see the great surprise you are going to get! They only know how to misgovern by force and with Counterintelligence hitmen,” said another of the hundreds of Cubans outraged with the hypocrisy and propaganda of the regime.
This December 10, International Human Rights Day,The Cuban regime used its repressive arsenal and intensified arbitrary arrests, surveillance and home fencing and actions of intimidation and harassment of opponents, activists, relatives of political prisoners and independent journalists in the country, with the aim of preventing any demonstration of denunciation or protest for the constant violation of these in the island.
