      They’re pointing out that this is like having a group called Far-Right Evangelical Christians for Abortion.

      Sure, there is a very small percentage of that demographic who are pro-choice, but the vast majority are not.

      The Cuban diaspora in America is overwhelmingly right-wing, religiously anti-communist, and incredibly toxic to American politics.

      So good on this group for speaking out, but it’s fair to acknowledge that, by and large, that is not how Cubans in America feel, and definitely not representative of how their outsized political power is generally expressed.
