The irony is this old cuban and many like him are exhibiting the typical totalitarian worship we see in autocratic nations.
You also see such authoritarian-worship from many Chinese immigrants. They grew up being told to love authoritarians, so they become Republicans. Like Republicans, they just can't function without a strong daddy-figure to take orders from.
Why have you decided to crowbar an off topic discussion about chinese immigrants when this thread has nothing to do with them?
