A leftist figure spends lavishly while criticizing capitalism, prompting scrutiny of performative activism.

Asmongold TV contrasts loud Western leftists in Cuba with local realities, delivering sharp takes on media hype, propaganda, and ideology.

Summary

Asmongold deconstructs a recent trip by Western leftists to Cuba, pointing out the performative nature of their criticisms of American capitalism while ignoring ongoing local hardships. He notes the stark contrasts between lavish airline trips and Cuba’s blackout conditions, and he calls out the tendency of some travelers to lecture locals from a place of privilege. The clip features candid reactions, mockingly calling out “Karen Airlines” and other stereotypes, while also highlighting the polarized views around the embargo and Cuba’s political system. Throughout, Asmongold and his panel recount personal interactions with Cuban locals and Miami Cubans, framing the debate as a clash between genuine solidarity and performative activism. The segment also threads through memes and on-camera banter about cars, infrastructure, and the portrayal of Cuba on social media. By the end, the hosts acknowledge nuanced tensions—between sympathy for ordinary Cubans and skepticism about how some aid is used—without shirking their conservative critique of leftist charity narratives. Overall, the video reads as a provocateur’s satire of online leftism and its real-world consequences in Cuba.

Revolutionary leftist just blew $600 on flights to Havana. That's years of wages for the average Cuban. All the cosplay revolution in front of breadlines, wandering the ruins like it's some kind of safari. Singing some and then lecturing locals about evil American capitalism. You believe this? You believe? Oh my god. Oh jeez. Is this embarrassing? Hey guys, this is just sad, bro. The whitest people. I know. It's always the whitest people, isn't it, man? This just is so pathetic. Look how happy they are with themselves. Of course they're happy. Get ready for this. This is just bro. Oh my god. Here we are on our way to Cuba. WE'RE in a sh. It's so sucker. It's so Look at this. It's so sad. There it is. Oh man. The true enemy of America. The true prime evil in the flesh. Or so they say. Wow. Karen Airlines. Yeah. Jesus Christ. Code pink. Oh my god. Imagine being a brutalized Cuban peasant living under crushing communist dictatorship your entire life, then having to put up with Western socialists flying out to your country in order to prop up that dictatorship while ranting about how oppressive their own infinitely freer societies supposedly are. Oh my god. Here's another one. Jesus, this is so sad, isn't it? Hey guys, we're just like you. Yeah, I know. man. It's just sad. It really is sad. They're so full of themselves. I know. It's the usual suspects, too. Let Cuba live. Oh, here it is. With full And this is another guy. I don't know who this guy is. Cuban journalist. Okay. With full air conditioning in a highly lit auditorium. The foreign communists give a standing ovation to the Cuban dictator. With half of the island in blackout going through a terrible situation, the propaganda for these immoral people, there is fuel. Actually, I guess I I'll play the other one. Let me Let me get on the other frame. Look, it's just it This is so embarrassing. I I don't even understand how it's real. We should cancel their passports, make them stay in Cuba. Well, that won't work because Cuba is going to be the 51st state soon, so they'll still be able to come back. Uh-huh. Food and water, too. Yeah. So, they brought over a bunch of stupid Americans and Westerners to try to gas up this dictator. Is that right? Sorry about the audio is loud. Jesus, it's just embarrassing, man. It really is. Oh, here's another one. So, we're on the plane now getting ready to go to Havana, Cuba. We have this entire charter flight full of people. And as important, full of medicines. And we're so excited to be with the Cuban people and show our support, show our solidarity, and to say that this cruel, inhumane, barbaric policy of the Trump administration has to go. So, we're on a plane now getting ready to go. They got to get rid of it. Oh, that makes sense. Yeah, definitely. And uh what's the script? I mean, this is what it is. This is a Karen. Now, I do want to say like this is somebody again, I said that before, I say it again. She would be great living in a hut in a swamp selling mushrooms. But they got her out there on, you know, computers. She got a smart like she should never have a smartphone. You give somebody like this a smartphone. Oh my god. What are you thinking? Oh Jesus. None of those medicines will make it to the people. They'll give it to the government and the government will keep it for tourism or sell it. Oh, it probably will, right? And then there's another one. Wouldn't it just make more sense to send the aid and not bring a hundred more mouths to feed? Well, how are you going to get social media credit for that? Oh my god, man. Jesus. There they are. This is just so bad. It is so bad. I feel bad. Yeah, bro. I feel bad for the pilot. Yeah, true. And so this is the last time this happened. This was in 1900. Uh, I I think this is actually uh I'm not sure about this, but this actually might be her grandmother. Actually, she dyes her hair. It probably could just be her. This is good. You know, they say, gentlemen, some things never change. Is she feeding them my birds in McDonald's parking lot? Look, she feeding my birds, bro. Damn. Isn't that crazy? Not my neighbors. I know. How? So, this has been a problem for a long time apparently. As a Cuban, why do they think we love socialism? We don't. Uh because they hate America. That's the reason why. like uh most the thing is that uh I remember like my my parents obviously grew up in Florida, right? And so uh I remember my mom, she was like, "Well, what are they getting down on Cubans for? Cubans love America. I used to have a Cuban boyfriend." I was like, "Wait, what?" AND SHE'S LIKE, "YEAH, YEAH, IT was great. It was fine. Yeah, Cubans are amazing. I love it. Yeah, we were in Florida. We knew tons of Cubans. Everything was okay. AND SO YEAH, THAT'S JUST WHAT SHE SAID. And so Cubans are base. Exactly. And I thought it was really funny to see this. Let me see if I can pull up some more of the uh the trip to Cuba. Leftist trip to Cuba. I thought it was half Cuban. I think this was like whenever she was probably in her 20s, right? And so I don't think that was it. But um anyway, so you're supposed to be half Cuban. Maybe you're right. Yeah. I don't know. And so, uh, let me see. I pull up some more of these, uh, these instances here. And, uh, yeah, the cracks up. Oh, there's this, too. Oh, god. Is there any more of these? Let me see if I can find the rest of them. This the left stream. Oh, no. This is it. Under Oh, this is it. Under communism. Let's look at it. So, this is Cuba 1930s without it. So they just turned it into a hole. They turned the whole thing into a hole. Oh, not good. Uh, that's right. It's just like Iran. You know, guys, I think I'm starting to see a pattern here. It's almost like whenever these deranged retards that don't know how to do anything right take over, everything goes wrong. Have y'all noticed that? What are the odds of that? Think you what China would look like if it wasn't communist? China's communist, right? China's communist. You you here's here's the way that you know that China isn't communist. The kids are getting fat and they want to be influencers. Okay. Let's be honest. Okay. Let's just be honest here. Yeah. They're getting fat. That's a good point. Yeah. I mean, come on. You're just wrong. No, I'm not. Like there is ne like I Okay, actually can't say that. It's like basically that's basically racist.

Cubans. best people. Okay. So kind, so welcoming. Wow. Just the best. Wow. Just the absolute best. Amazing. The best. My lord. Okay. Uhhuh. Yes. Anyway, but yeah, we we worked hard and we were able to uh we were able to set up a Mhm. We were able to set up a goddamn stream. You know what's he doing acting weird for? What's he doing? He acting weird. What's wrong? Not in Miami. Oh, dude. It's the reversal. actually literally like the exact opposite. Like all the good Cubans stayed here and most of the most of the ones that are crazy just like blew up there. I swear to God. Is this my computer or is this the Is this his Is this really the way it's supposed to look? Like I swear to God. That's a funny experience with that is like we get in the car. We get into Uber last night. March and I about to discuss that we're going to be in Cuba like talking about plans, right? And I was like, March, don't say anything cuz I noticed that the dude in the car was a Miami Cuban. I was like, don't like I literally went don't say anything. So, you racially profiled him. Okay. And then I just asked him. I was like, "Where are you from?" And he's like, "Oh, Kuba." And I was like, "Okay." And I just asked him about like, you know, what his feelings are about what's going on. March actually spat some some Spanish at him. And And by the way, spat some Spanish at him. This is the person calling me out for using AAV. This is the exact person. This is the same person. That made me mad. I will never forget that. Let me tell you, okay, said Donald Trump needs to finish the job. Oh my god, bro. Yes, that's what he said. That was the first guy. And this is like That's right. I guess this was first real interaction with like a Miami Cuban. You know what I mean? This was his first ever interaction with a real Miami Cuban, like a real ass Miami Cuban, right? So, he was like kind of shocked. And I know I know what the streams look like. Megaponics. I'm monitoring it. I'm monitor the situation and I'm monitoring the stream as well. Yes. So, so Marge had not experienced that at all. So there was that was like his first ever inclination and the guy had no family here. They were all in Miami, right? So like you know obviously he was uh he was the classic like you know bomb it all like got sorted out type guy. And then this morning we had another but this guy was actually so on Trump and he was still like oh the government is like everything it's bad blah blah blah communism is bad. It's crazy how the people that escape the country don't like it. I would have never expected that. I would have never expected this in a million years. But he was a little bit more open-minded because I was able to like talk to him about the embargo. You know, they have this very weird attitude about it. They have this very weird attitude about it. on the one hand, they kind of they understand what their what their famil family's lives looked like or felt like when there was a little bit of sanctions relief and like they could send money with ease to their families. You know what I mean? Like it's just such a strange cognitive dissonance to experience in real time, but you know, I I gave a couple interviews on the at the airport and stuff and then we flew in. Uhhuh. Right. What a cool guy. So yeah, it's the See, there's the good Cubans and the bad Cubans. The good Cubans are the ones that agree with me. The bad Cubans are the ones that don't agree with me. Ah, I see. That makes a lot of sense. Of course.
