They are not invincible. They never were. The invincibility was always partly theater, maintained by the willingness of enough people to act as though it were real. The aircraft carriers are real. The sanctions are real. The capacity to destabilize, to starve, to bomb, to fund opposition, to manipulate elections, all of it is real, and it causes real suffering, and no one should be naive about the cost of resistance.

πŸ‡§πŸ‡·πŸ‡¨πŸ‡Ί Lula just said what the world has been thinking: "Stop this damn blockade of Cuba and let the Cuban people live their lives." "Cuba has problems. But they are Cuba's problems. Not Lula's. Not Trump's. Not the empire's."
