You excused it by blaming it on Cuba. There's no meaningful difference between that and support. Any worthwhile take on the embargo starts with ending it immediately, and you can't even manage that.
And sure, I would support sanctions against Nazi Germany. But until Cuba turns fascist, invades its neighbors, and starts a genocide, it's nowhere near a situation where sanctions are appropriate.
Use your words
If you think there's some meaningful difference, let's hear what it is. "I don't support this but it's totally their fault" is not convincing.
Of course there's a difference with seeing something from an objective viewpoint and agreeing or disagreeing with it?
"It's their fault" is not an objective viewpoint. You are assigning blame to Cuba and excusing the U.S.
Well, if your horrible, uneducated, moronic, murderous political ideas didn't already tell me that you have the mental capacity of someone who derives their political opinions from children's media...There it is.
