From the files of: "You can't make this up"

My leftist SIL was making this exact argument when she was defending Communism.

There's a plot twist. Her family fled Cuba and came to the US in ~1965.

I just shake my head.

That's surprising. Usually immigrants from Cuba and Eastern Europe are very suspicious of any politics on the left. They have a "no thanks, I've lived through that" attitude.

Yea, I can't figure it out. But she did marry my very leftist brother. In fact, my whole family are leftists. I have 4 siblings that are all lefties and then there's me. I'm very, very Conservative. They can't figure out what happened to me.
