Those non-violent protests shook them so bad they wanted to charge non-violent Quaker protestors with terrorism.
I mean the US has been consistently aggressive against Cuba, and while I hate the idea of mutually assured destruction, when it was the accepted strategy to get a country to stop fucking with you, it makes sense that Cuba would want the ability to threaten that against the US unless it stopped trying to overthrow their government. Plus the US literally just armed 2 countries near the USSR, so it's not like it was an unreasonable escalation by the USSR or anything, the US kinda did it first lol.
both sides irresponsibly escalated the conflict in the name of imperialism.
Oh yeah 100%, I don't place the blame solely on the US or the USSR, it's on both. I don't like any state, US and USSR included, and imperialism isn't exclusive to capitalist states. The USSR is way too demonized in the US education system though, it gets treated as some ultimate evil of history, only responsible for bad things, when it wasn't really doing anything the US wasn't also doing.
Yeah, the US education can be very chauvinist. It definitely was in the part of the US where I grew up.
