These appear to have arrived before the US tightened the blockage in earnest. Their plan was for a 2 GW combined installation, of which this represents maybe 1%.


Thankfully solar and other supplies are being given to Cuba in large quantities
That’s news to me. Was just listening to a podcast interviewing a local Cuban journalist, suggesting help was not - in fact - on the way.
Incidentally, Belly of the Beast does some excellent domestic Cuban coverage. But everything they are reporting suggests these supplies have not been forthcoming, on account of the military blockade of the island. Like, you cannot sail ships into and out of the major harbors (shy of outright smuggling or armed escort).
Much like with the Gaza Blockade, there are ongoing efforts to build political pressure by assembling relief and directing it at the island. There’s no reason to believe it will actually arrive.


Liberals are hyper exposed to the latter and sheltered from the former.
Check the Cuba coverage right now. We’re getting wall to wall #SOSCuba tier hysterics, while the devestation of the blockade and the threat of a military invasion goes fully unreported.

Survivorship Bias. The boomers alive today are the ones that weren’t killed by wars, pollution, and poverty
This is actually your fault, btw
Boomers haven’t been a voting majority in over a decade. JD Vance is a Vice President by, of, and for millennials.
