These responses are the worst of bad-faith every time I see them. If you live in a place, with family and friends and social ties, but it has some stuff you want to change, why would the solution ever be "move away" rather than "stay and make it change", except that the former is more convenient for assholes who are fine with how things are?

As far as getting "shot" in Cuba, you're more likely to get shot by a cop in the US than in Cuba for any particular reason. Stop just soaking in wild propaganda uncritically.

That’s right, collectivists never want to reside in collectivist countries, they insist on converting capitalist countries so that they can leech off of wealth and businesses that wouldn’t otherwise exist under their own system. If Cuba is so great, put your money where your mouth is and live there. I have always and will continue to always have absolutely zero issue when communists steal from each other, all I ask is that others be left out of it.
Talking about bad faith... you know you're replying in a thread about GitHub incidents where someone is blaming capitalism for that right?
