You might be on to something ukit, people are totally clueless these days (as always), the saddest thing for me is they're good-spirited.
Two more images from my trips, apologies to those who see them for the 30th time (most of you). They were shot quite randomly, I just happened to be on the same streets.Barcelona:

To me, who spent childhood in real communism (a relatively mild yet miserable version) it's kind of like for a Jew to see young people waving swastikas.
It is a system that strips people's dignity and turns them into slaves. In every case, everywhere it was tried, it ended in a dictatorship and poverty, often a genocide unmatched in volume.
People have short memory that's why it'll keep coming back.A woman in Cuba (she was one of the few pro-revolutionaries I met) told me "no tenemos nada pero todos somos iguales".
Sure, I read Animal Farm. I lived on it.
Then without asking if I was interested she invited over for us a 20 year old selling illegal, not sure stolen or counterfeit Cohibas to make his family's ends meet.
