Segundo Tratado sobre el Gobierno Civil

...Pues como todo poder que se concede con el encargo de cumplir un fin determinado ha de limitarse a la consecución de ese fin, siempre que el fin en cuestión sea manifiestamente olvidado o antagonizado resultara necesario retirar la confianza que se había puesto en quienes tenían la misión de cumplirlo; así, el poder volverá a manos de aquellos que lo concedieron, los cuales podran disponer de él como les parezca más conveniente para su proteccion y seguridad. De este modo la comunidad, conserva siempre un poder supremo de salvarse a si misma frente a posibles amenazas e intenciones maliciosas provenientes de cualquier persona, incluso de los legisladores mismos; pues puede ocurrir que éstos sean tan insensatos o tan malvados como para planear y llevar a cabo proyectos que vayan contra la libertad y la propiedad de los súbditos....

Are we in the presence of a Caribbean summer? or When enough is enough? #SOSCuba

 On February 16, 2021, a group of Cuban singers and composers confronted one of the most famous Cuban revolution emblems, "Homeland and Death" —Patria y Muerte— putting on various platforms a sing under the name "Homeland and life." Before this fact, the San Isidro Movement (MSI) also confronted the Cuban revolution. Doing this, the popular group challenged the Castro-communist regime that has ruled in La Havana for more than six decades. However, the replica of the Cuban government was immediate: "these singers are rated by the empire"; moreover, instead of mitigating the public reaction in less than one and a half weeks, the sing showed more than one million visits.

Four months later, Cuban riots all over the country took the streets claiming freedom, a new government, food, and Covid-19 vaccination, seem that Cuban people are tired of the Communism system. However, the government's answer was, "The order of combat is given: to the streets the revolutionaries."

The Cuban people, submitted under a communist government for more than six decades, yesterday once again took the streets in more than ten cities yelling for freedom and transition for a democracy. This time, the protesters are different because of the empowerment of people using social media networks that facilitated the communications from one region to another. Moreover, other factors include a lack of medicine and food on the one hand and the other hand the high prices of goods and services due to the restrictions of use dollars as legal currency by the Eur that become more expensive. Surpresivenly, the Cuban intelligence service—famous for hid effectively—underestimated the social, political situation. Therefore the Cuban-G2 intelligence service did not hear the sound of the river that stones brought.

Cuban citizens live in continuous worried due to lack of medicine and food, and additionally, the COVID-19 pandemic has been killing many people. This time the things should be different because the Venezuelan government is in the same or even worse situation than the Cuban regime. In addition to this, the police forces —the red and black berets— and the non-state coercive forces responding against the citizens overusing the public power.

In the following days or maybe hours, the Cuban people could decide their destiny; otherwise, the protest that begun yesterday would have been one more attempt to achieve the freedom desired.
