I work with a (libertarian? He's a fan of Milei) who doesn't believe there's an embargo, and that the Cuban government just destroys dollar bills. I asked him if there's no embargo, why is there a UN vote to end it like almost every year? Then he says 'oh, well a few a things are banned, yes'.
There are gusanos who insist that the economic difficulties are entirely the Cuban government's fault, but at the same time it is vitally important that the embargo remains in place
Ask him if there's no embargo why is there a memo from the secretary of inter American affair's or whatever from the 50s going "we're going to embargo cuba specifically to make life shitty enough for regime change"
There's actually a lib talking point that
"the embargo is actually overblown they receive products all the time"
