    How did you jumped from there to “real oppression started”? Next paragraph make it pretty clear that slaves are doubly oppressed than proletarians, since they need to freed themselves to become what proletarians already are. Also i don’t really get how being worse off automatically means being more oppressed, going by that logic citizens of Cuba are more oppressed than those of USA.

      In a way, Cuban citizens are more oppressed than U.S. citizens because the people of Cubans have been oppressed by imperialism for decades, while Americans are just oppressed by their domestic/national bourgeoisie.
