(V): So if you like quoting Wikipedia so much, why don't you quote the most important information relating to the subject? I.e. Castro being a socialist dictator?
“In 1965 he became First Secretary of the Communist Party of Cuba, and led the transformation of Cuba into a one-party socialist republic.” “On May 1, 1961, Castro declared Cuba a socialist state and officially abolished multiparty elections.”
“Many observers refer to Castro as a dictator […].” “Despite his denouncement of dictatorships, Castro himself has been described as a dictator.”
