Khloe Kardashian received social media backlash over a photo of herself posing under a Fidel Castro sign in Havana, Cuba. Instagram users were questioning the reality star's choice to align herself with the dictator through the photo she posted on Wednesday, May 4.
One user wrote, "This is as offensive to Cubans as the Armenian Genocide is to Armenians. Fidel stole the lives of many Cubans and future generations to follow." A second user commented, "Please consider the pictures you post to millions. This is disgusting and reveals a stupidity deeper than I thought possible."
A third user posted, "Out of all the places in Habana she had to take a picture w this name on the wall @chacheeziee like really!? Fidel is the reason Cuba is the way it is!" Another one added, "You are disgusting .. How disrespectful of you to pose in front of Fidel Castro s name like that. Ignorant and thoughtless . Media whore."
Khloe hasn't responded to the backlash yet.
After posting the controversial Fidel picture, Khloe shared a photo of herself and pal Malika smoking a big Cuban cigar.
She added a photo of the Cuba street along with a thankful message. "With everyday, my goal is to expand my mind," the "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" star wrote, "Now, it has been filled with new memories and knowledge of culture, food, traditions, daily life.... It will never go back to yesterday's dimensions! I'm so blessed to be able to appreciate another's culture. God is GREAT! Thank you for my opportunities."
On Thursday, May 5, Khloe was saying goodbye to the beautiful city.
