Twitter Users Mock Justin Trudeau for Issuing Pro-Fidel Castro Statement

Much of the free Western world rejoiced over the weekend at the news of the passing of one of the worst communist dictators history has seen, former Cuban revolutionary leader Fidel Castro, who died at the age of 90.

At least, much of the world excepting those with a decidedly leftward political lean, many of whom offered up disgustingly gushing and affectionate expressions of sorrow at the loss.

Take, or example, the prime minister of Canada, Justin Trudeau, who released a sort of eulogy expressing “deepest condolences” for the family and supporters of the murderous dictator, calling him a “larger than life” figure who made improvements to education and health care and was someone whom Trudeau had considered it “an honor” to meet.

“While a controversial figure, both Mr. Castro’s supporters and detractors recognized his tremendous dedication and love for the Cuban people who had a deep and lasting affection for ‘el Comandante,’” Trudeau wrote.

“On behalf of all Canadians, Sophie and I offer our deepest condolences to the family, friends and many, many supporters of Mr. Castro. We join the people of Cuba today in mourning the loss of this remarkable leader.”

As could be expected, Trudeau’s statement drew significant opposition from those who viewed Castro with clear eyes, and many sarcastically mocked Trudeau’s commentary by imagining what he might have said regarding other brutal murderers and dictators, both real and imagined, according to WREG.

One of those was outspoken Castro critic and Republican Florida Sen. Marco Rubio, who questioned whether Trudeau’s statement was real or an absurd parody.

In the spirit of parody, many social media users began posting their own gushing portrayals of past dictators under the hashtag #Trudeaueulogies.

 

The Daily Caller reported on several of those grimly humorous Twitter posts, which likened Castro to such historical figures as Roman emperor Nero, North Korean dictator Kim Jong Il, Cambodian dictator Pol Pot, Saddam Hussein and even Genghis Khan.

But in keeping with the humorous aspect, others imagined Trudeau’s statements regarding imaginary dictators and murderers, such as Freddy Krueger, Sauron, Hannibal Lecter and even Darth Vader.

These are hilarious and quite sad at the same time. Murderous dictators and the leaders of brutal regimes should never be praised or mourned, but denounced even after death for being the horrible people they were and should forever remain in historical accounts, not to be glowingly glossed over or presented in a favorable light.

Please share this on Facebook and Twitter so everyone can see the internet’s reaction to Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s heartfelt condolences for the family and friends of the evil Cuban communist dictator Fidel Castro.
