Fidel Castro, Cuba's former president and leader of the Communist revolution, has died aged 90, state TV has announced.
It provided no further details.
Fidel Castro ruled Cuba as a one-party state for almost half a century before handing over the powers to his brother Raul in 2008.
His supporters praised him as a man who had given Cuba back to the people. But his opponents accused him of brutally suppressing opposition.
In April, Fidel Castro gave a rare speech on the final day of the country's Communist Party congress.
He acknowledged his advanced age but said Cuban communist concepts were still valid and the Cuban people "will be victorious".

Goodbye, Fidel. You were the 3rd least-evil Communist dictator, after Gorbachev and Tito.

Edit: And maybe also after Khrushchev, and your brother, and some of the late Soviet geriatrics.

As far as 2016 deaths go I can live with this one.

Hopefully this can be the end of the US/Cuba nonsense, and we can continue to improve and normalize relations.

I'd go Deng, Krushchev, Ho, then Castro. Gorbachev doesn't count.

RIP Augusto.

So many greats lost in 2016.

Edit: Fuck, now that all the Commietards will be in mourning Swedish media will be worse than usual. That's pretty bad.
