Leftists Unleash Fury on Pop Star Camila Cabello for Speaking Out Against Communist Atrocities in Cuba

Wait 5 sec.

Cuban American pop sensation Camila Cabello is being met with vicious attacks from leftists for using her social media to shine a light on the devastating humanitarian crisis gripping Cuba under its long-standing communist regime.Cabello, who was born in Havana and immigrated to the United States with her family when she was seven, shared a series of photos from her childhood, including images of her in the communist “young pioneer” uniform, a symbol of the regime’s indoctrination efforts.The singer also posted images of collapsed buildings and desperate Cubans rummaging through dumpsters for food.In her caption, Cabello didn’t mince words about the “67 years of a failing dictatorship and an oppressive regime.”“The Cuban people are suffering in an echo chamber where no one can hear them because to speak is to risk your life,” she wrote.Cabello continued, “Many people are starving, looking for food in trash heaps, and the only way to survive is having relatives ship you boxes of medicine because not even the hospitals have medicine. The power is gone for so long that food spoils and water becomes scarce… The Cuban people have lived without dignity and without hope for too long. It’s no wonder so many Cubans have thrown themselves into shark-infested waters, making boats out of tires and sticks and risking their lives for freedom.”The star encouraged her followers to support Caritas Cuba, a humanitarian organization providing aid to those in need. View this post on Instagram A post shared by ⋆₊˚⊹♡ camila (@camila_cabello)The post read in full:There is so much going on here at home and so much I can say about the heartbreaking things the immigrant community is experiencing here in the US. I also feel a personal responsibility to speak about what’s happening in Cuba, I still have family on the island that we speak to and send medicine, food and clothes to.It has been 67 years of a failing dictatorship and an oppressive regime. The Cuban people are suffering in an echo chamber where no one can hear them because to speak is to risk your life. Many people are starving, looking for food in trash heaps, and the only way to survive is having relatives ship you boxes of medicine because not even the hospitals have medicine.The power is gone for so long that food spoils and water becomes scarce . When people have peacefully protested, they have disappeared or been put behind bars, some as young as 13 years old. This is a reality where a post online costs you your life. The Cuban people have lived without dignity and without hope for too long. It’s no wonder so many Cubans have thrown themselves into shark infested waters, making boats out of tires and sticks and risking their lives for freedom.They are now in the midst of a profound humanitarian crisis.

Disgusting.”High-profile leftist streamer Hasan Piker joined the pile-on during a livestream, mispronouncing her name and declaring her words “disgusting” for supposedly defending America’s “unimaginable and unyielding cruelty.”Hasan Piker reviews Camila Cabello’s Instagram post where she blamed the Cuban government for the suffering of it’s people.“We are starving them, the entire planet that is scared of the United States has said time and time again please end the blockade, free them” pic.twitter.com/ShdYGVBzjq— Hasanabi Clips (@hasansbigtoe) February 22, 2026Reddit threads were filled with similar vitriol, with users dismissing her as “ignorant” and her views as a “MAGA take” or “white-washed stupid-ass take.” Some even accused her hit song “Havana” of cultural appropriation, despite Cabello being born and raised in Cuba until her family fled.However, many Cuban and Venezuelan users praised Cabello for her courage.Cuban rapper Yotuel called her “little sister” and thanked her, while others expressed solidarity with cries of “Free Cuba, Nicaragua, Iran, and Venezuela.” Spanish-language responses flooded in with messages like “We love you so much Camilita” and “Finally someone famous and coherent.”This isn’t the first time Cabello has spoken out against the regime, Breitbart News noted.In 2021, amid massive protests in Cuba, she lamented the “62 years” of oppression that turned promises of free healthcare and education into a nightmare where even doctors can’t afford basic staples.“For 62 years, Cuban people have been living under oppression,” Cabello said during the protests. “What started out as a socialist ideal of free healthcare, free education and food for all turned into present-day Cuban people have to wait hours in line at the grocery store to come in and find that basic staples like beans and rice are ten times more than what the average even medical doctor in Cuba can afford.”The post Leftists Unleash Fury on Pop Star Camila Cabello for Speaking Out Against Communist Atrocities in Cuba appeared first on The Gateway Pundit.
