Blas Roca Calederio, born on July 22 in 1908, was a Cuban communist revolutionary and radical journalist. Roca helped lead the 1933 general strike that ousted Gerardo Machado, and served in Fidel Castro's revolutionary government.
Born into a poor family, Roca began working at age eleven, shining shoes. According to Castro, Roca was already a prominent communist organizer in the province of Oriente at 21 years old.
At age 25, Roca helped lead a two week general strike that ousted dictator Gerardo Machado. By 1936, he was head of the Cuban Communist Party and began serving as a politican, helping author the 1940 Cuban Constitution.
Under Roca's leadership, Cuban communists were instrumental in providing an organizational and ideological structure for Castro's revolution, as well as playing a pivotal role using the party's long-standing ties with the Soviet Union to promote increasingly closer ties during the early days of the revolution.
In 1961, Blas Roca, leading a party delegation, presented a Cuban flag to Nikita Khrushchev during a meeting of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union. Roca served on the first central committee and politburo of the new Communist Party of Cuba, founded in 1965.

Weirdo chan chuds have come up with a ton of weird terms but I think "safe horny" is the weirdest to me.
I've yet to see a proper definition. It just seems to be "anyone we consider the woke to find hot".
I've seen it be uncomfortably linked to "clearly looks like an adult" a few too many times to be comfortable with it lol.
I mean, the girl from Stellar Blade was seen as an example of not safe horny, and she's pretty clearly adult looking. So I have no idea what the definition is supposed to be. It just seems like they have the narrative of "the woke just hates sexy characters", but then there's clear evidence of that not being true, such as Purah or Lady Dimitrescu, so they had to come up with something else to keep that narrative up.
Yeah its not 1:1 obviously I've just seen it used that way too many times. Purah is actually the perfect example because her having an adult body now is one of their examples of "safe horny" sooooo.
