Make sure to stay at Casas if you're not going on a tour bus!they're cheaper, preferred, and an easy way to exchange your USD to CUP. Btw bring a TON of cash into the island (and a suitcase full of medicine if you can, the communist party can direct you to the best clinic to bring it to). I'd say 1k per week of free cash to keep things easy and flowing and get yourself fun trinkets to fill the empty medicine suitcase. Imperial core cards and banks refuse to operate in Cuba, so do it all before you're on the plane!

Thanks, my partner invented it, they're great
If you don't have an itinerary all planned out I highly recommend going on a tour bus trip, it'll help you get the fullest scope of knowledge about Cuba. If you go with a normal tour bus you'll get some American-brained reactionary as the tour guide though, be warned, most folks who interact with tourists regularly are openly anticommunist (fancy themselves more imperial core than periphery I guess). I've heard good things about Young Pioneer tours and they've got a tour for this may day. My impression is that they won't be wildly reactionary, I hope 🤞, and I've recommended the tour to another curious Hexbear so y'all might be able to comrade it up.
Edit: Also if you're in Viñales PLEASE check out Heladería El Rapidito, it's so good and so cheap (like 30-40 cup per cone I think? That's like literally a quarter for delicious ice cream).
Actually the CPC was so successful because it did create alternatives to the warlord institutions that folks could rely on, Marxists have always been creating alternative structures around the current order to bypass them.
Also my sibling in sinai, you are posting on the federated alternative to reddit
I like traditional Chinese characters, I think they're very pretty albeit wildly impractical
This is like right wing Tonight We Riot, lame.
Nice, how's season four??
Stuff like this makes my heart hurt so much, Cubans have had to endure so much collective punishment in order to try and make their situation just a little bit better. Death to America, the cause of this crisis.
It's like a Moses thing, my brother in Christ is funny but limited to Christian adjacent people atleast, whereas everyone can be a sibling and every abrahamic religion's had something going on in the Sinai.
