Please do Mr Putin, I think that is perhaps what is necessary, sadly, in order to end the war. If Putin drops a small nuke, this will unite the EU beyond what anyone thought possible, and then, with a joint military strike, the EU will crush russia.
At the same time, a small nuke would alienate russias allies, such as the US, china, and iran.

I use the words individualist to mean the healthy individual who bases his life on taking responsibility for himself. The other one I call an egoist, which is an unhealthy and destructive state of mind, and which, if too severe, can be seen as a mental illness.
Don't let the left capture the word individual just like they did with the word liberal. Liberal originally meant the ideology of freedom. This was perverted by the left to spread socialism. It is really very sad.

True, but likewise, the cubans that live on the islands, are exposed to propaganda. It's like asking a peasant in the old soviet country side if the soviet union was good, and of course it was, since he was not aware of any other alternatives. So I'd argue, that actually, the best representative of what is best for cuba are the exile cubans.
As for control, does it matter? If the cubans do not control the corporation, but it raises their standard of living, isn't that enough?

Not necessarily. Countries are run for the benefit of the people who live there. Corporations consist of people. If cuba were run for the benefit of corporations, with people on cuba, there is no problem there. Most likely, cuba would fourish as the 51:st state and peoples income and quality of life would massively improve.

But what about salaries coupled to the national average salary? Let's say they can get 2x the national average. If, due to competent economic policies, the economy and salaries expands, the politicians get increased salaries, if the economy contracts, they get lowered salaries.

after that, the journey to the mainstream started, and the journey to the founders wealth also started.
Today they are somewhat anti-immigration, and very happy to participate in the EU.
This led to a spinn-off party, true to their roots, that hovers at around 0.1 to 0.3% while the rest marched on to wealth and becoming more mainstream.

This sounds like it surely is some kind of discovered political law. if you want your party to grow, broaden it, leave the grass roots, alienate the original founders. If you want your party to fight for the original ideals, it will remain small.
A beautiful example of this can be seen in the swedish nationalist party. In the beginning they were fiercly anti-immigration, and anti-EU. It took them at least a decade, or maybe it was 2, to reach about 4% and enter the parliament.
