Gerardo Hernández calls on CDR members to fight on social media: "Today's bombs are more subtle"

The former Cuban spy Gerardo Hernández Nordelo, currently the national coordinator of the Committees for the Defense of the Revolution (CDR), called on the CDR members to fight on social media during the central event for the 64th anniversary of the organization.

In Santiago de Cuba, the venue for the national event, Hernández Nordelo stated that "the bombs of today are more subtle and concealed, and are primarily in the world of social media."

Similarly, according to the report published on the official Canal Caribe Facebook page, it stated that "each moment demands new challenges, and the Cedrist force will always be at the service of the Fatherland."

Furthermore, he highlighted the importance of "disseminating the truth about Cuba," although in reality it would be the "truth" of the regime, because the people on the island live a harsh reality of blackouts, shortages, and almost countless difficulties.

In fact, despite the attendance at the event, many of those individuals were compelled by their supervisors at work; Cubans see the "committees" as the breeding ground for neighborhood snitching, an instrument of the vampirism of Castroism that drains the blood and soul of citizens, and aims to turn each neighbor into the police of the other. If they still exist, it is thanks to the oversized power of the repressive machinery of the dictatorship.

Who is on duty today? Which parents enroll their children in the organization when they turn 16? What Patrol Clic, what Red Sunday, what meeting, what celebration of what? No one is "for that" anymore, and Hernández Nordelo knows it, but he insists that they are making progress in programs for collecting "raw materials" and "blood donations."
