Castro teachers were Franco leaning anti-communists:
The Jesuits were nearly all Spanish. [...] Politically all the Jesuits he encountered were right-wing, and supporters of Franco in the Spanish Civil War.
What converted Castro was the Communist Manifesto, not Jesuits material. One would need to bring at least a Jesuits book/teacher that led Castro inevitably to Communism. His link between "Christianism" and "Communism" is better described below.
At university Castro became a Marxist-Leninist. "To be quite frank, the simplicity, clarity and direct manner in which our world and society are explained in the Communist Manifesto had a particularly great impact on me," he said.
One would need a list of all people that were affected and check if Jesuits were affected or not, or if they actually gained from the revolution. That would be at least a "cui bono" of their participation on the revolution.
In the other hand if Jesuits were actually expelled, demoted, or hindered in general, is at least a good indication that the revolution was not a Jesuits one.
After the revolution no churches in Cuba were ever closed down, he said, but he had requested that some of the priests be withdrawn, because of the militant attitude taken by some in opposing the revolution, especially the Spanish ones.
Their authorisation to stay in the country was revoked, but replacements were allowed. Religious-run schools and hospitals were nationalised, and believers in God were not allowed join the communist party.
What Castro is saying here is closer to "Liberation Theology", than Jesuits. And "Liberation Theology" is very close to KGB.
It very well known that Communist "Catholics" in South America are all close to "Liberation Theology".
Rather, she said, "I concentrated on the revolutionary aspects of Christian doctrine and Christ's thinking."
Christ didn't choose the rich to preach his teaching, he recalled, "he chose 12 poor and ignorant workers, that is, he chose the proletariat of the times . . . They were poor people, very poor, without exception."
Of course, that from the Protestant perspective the Catholic Church is wrong for centuries, so nothing will change one mind. But we don´t need to exaggerate.

Communist material is Jesuit material! That's the play--Marx was merely a convenient proxy for their own ideas. Read the last parts of the image. This comment has more on it https://greatawakening.win/p/19Ax7FCeCy/x/c/4eRUGIVGJNc?d=50
