Our ideas are also in social networks

In Facebook and Twitter are expressed the ideals of the Cuban Revolution and the truth about its Commander in Chief Fidel Castro Ruz.
Spontaneously, many young people from this center of higher education not only communicate their feelings verbally but also manifest them in social networks since they knew of the physical disappearance of the true leader. About what they think about it, we offer some opinions:
MSc. Hubert Viltres Sala, a principal developer of the site" Fidel, Soldier of Ideas, said: " Socializing what we think is the way we have to honor the Commander and provide support for the tribute that is being organized throughout the country."
"Eric Utrera Sust, Professor: I've been giving my ideas since I heard about Fidel's physical death, and since I was very young, I'm a follower of the Cuban Revolution's top leader, and I'm an engineer in Informatics Sciences thanks to him. All I have to do to honor his memory, I do it, although we know that Internet access limits the presence of more revolutionaries in the networks. "
"Yaiselis Ramírez Mastrapa, professor: This University was created with the purpose of computerizing the country, and we feel very committed because we are faithful to Fidel´s ideas first of all. In such a sad moment we must be better workers, students, and revolutionaries, and not only defend our ideas but also to make known our opinions about who Fidel is and what he represents fro Cuban people because some people are talking without knowing the work done by Fidel in Cuba and arounad the word in favor of individuals.
"Lic. Katiuska Cedeño Espinosa, worker (foreground): I publish on facebook and twitter my ideas about Fidel as a Cuban, it is my tribute to him and my country, and with that feeling that we have to be a Cuban citizen, and also because of The sadness that we feel at the moment of the physical disappearance of Fidel. I think it is a lack of respect that many people had made to rejoice in an hour when they had to be respectful of the feelings and the position that many defend because we lost a human being, a great leader.Those who make negative comments do so because they could never, while he was alive, win the fight and think that, somehow, they will stain his name, but that is impossible. Something we can be proud of is that the top leader of the Cuban Revolution never went unnoticed, either to us or his detractors. "
"Engineer José Gabriel Espinosa Ramírez, professor: What I do I have been doing it since I first heard the news and I had access to a network, because I see it as something important that the community does and it should be known what we think because it is the reality that we are living at the moment and there are things, pieces of reality, that we can say better than the media, more directly. Although Fidel's death is a natural process, we did not get to see it and took us by surprise, Many people who did not see the locution of Raúl giving the news, they thought that it was not real, because Fidel is an immortal figure.It is indispensable the legacy that left us. "It was impressive in the Palace of the Revolution when the presidents of other countries expressed their gratitude. "
