We take the West’s conception of these things - heroism, honor, duty - we take these things for granted. We assume that these somehow are universal to all people in all times and in all places. They are not.

They are the product of a distinct character, a distinct character which arose here - and shaped the whole story of the civilization that came after it.

Cubans in Miami think they're white and they have their own cast system depending on when they arrived. Complain about Castro and Cuba not being free but have huge daddy issues loving any strongman that shows up to "fix things".

Marco is nothing but an enabled little cheater whose family was - and is - everything Cubans did in Miami during the Mariel years thinking they'd be part of the white guys club. Sad.

The real irony is that Greek immigrants in the USA were (and possibly still are!) looked down upon by white America.
