A young Cuban resident in the United States but who also lived in Puerto Rico asked her followers for their opinions after comparing how badly her return to her country of birth went compared to another visit she made to the Isla del Encanto, where she claims which was very well treated.
The tiktoker – identified as “Aloha Yeni” – stated that she left Cuba when she was a child and over time two of her children were born in Puerto Rico, however, the young woman emphasized that she does not die for any country and that her judgments are from their experiences and not from subjective feelings.
“My way of thinking is that I do not die for any country, not for Cuba, not for Puerto Rico, not for the United States, I die for my children and I recognize the good things everywhere. Even though I’m Cuban, if I see something wrong I say it. I am not interested in my children being Puerto Rican, if I see something wrong I say it, too. The same with the United States,” she clarified before recounting what her experiences were like on the two islands with which she is vitally linked.
Aloha Yeni says that when she returned to Cuba 18 years later it was not the same, and not precisely because of material scarcity, but because poverty in formal education and in treatment in general.
She says that it was not that the neighbors did not greet her, but that Everyone’s treatment of her was unnatural and marked by ulterior motives.
Added to this was the mistreatment he suffered at the airport and in all the places he was, except only for a paladar in Marianao that he says he loved.
She relates that they only said good morning to her if she said it first, and They always responded with the look of “this is the one who wants to act like an American.”
“They treated me like a foreigner and not like a Cuban. They don’t make you want to return, much less eventually return to live in your country if it were free at some point,” she concluded.
However, returning to Puerto Rico, he says, was very different.
“When I went to Puerto Rico the feeling was totally different. Despite all those who say yes to violence and all this madness. I did not experience that anywhere I went and I toured all of Puerto Rico,” she stated.
“I’m sorry to tell you that the people of Puerto Rico are much nicer than the people of Cuba because in Cuba everyone is arrogant. Everyone is a complexist and if they don’t know you and you’re not a tourist with whom they can have some kind of opportunity to get something from you, they treat you like hell.”he compared.
The Cuban woman said she was asking that because in her house everyone is Cuban who dies for Cuba even if the experiences are negative like the ones she lived through.
In the comments section, many Internet users agreed with her, although some blamed this deterioration and degeneration of Cuban society on Castroism, something that led her to express her disagreement in another video.
“I am a little tired of the eternal excuse of Cubans who say that everything must be blamed on Fidel and communism […] “Stop comparing what is necessity with the idiosyncrasy of the human being.”he asserted.
The TikToker gave as an example other countries that also have poverty and a very bad situation – even more than in Cuba – and yet are not as haughty and arrogant as she saw the Cubans residing on the island.
The controversy is served. What do you think?
