       Just the New York Times doing what it does best: Inventing Reality. Good news out of Cuba with the passing of its Family Code? Minimized. Downplayed. Only mentioning same-sex marriage and none of the other sweeping changes that place Cuba at the forefront of the world.Bad news out of Cuba from Hurricane Ian? Play it up. Be sure to mention deaths and that power is "still out" "hours" later.#Cuba #nytimes #NewYorkTimes #InventingReality #uspol #socialism #communism #Ian #Hurricane #Parenti

       @aspensmonster https://www.reuters.com/business/environment/cuba-slowly-begins-restore-power-after-hurricane-ian-knocks-out-grid-2022-09-28/"frail grid"  "I think we´ve finally hit bottom." "crumbling, decades-old buildings and pot-holed streets" "Officials gave no estimate of when" "crisis-racked Cuba" "mosquitoes are abundant and temperatures too hot" (HAHAHA!)Such high expectations for Cuba.. Such unbiased reporting.So, Desantis, what are your estimates of when everyone's power will be back on? Why do you REFUSE to tell the media!? Are you hiding something?

       No clean water in Flint, Michigan or Jackson, Mississippi.Bridges crumbling and collapsing left and right.Texas can't even weather a snow storm without their entire grid shutting down.Puerto Rico is all but ignored by the US Congress and has a crumbling infrastructure.Nobody in the US better say shit about Cuba. We're just as bad as they are in many places.

       But if it happens in America... this is the headline we get :) No mention of the million+ folks without power. Certainly not pontificating about "entire X being without power."https://poweroutage.us/area/state/floridaNow, it's not like losing power is unexpected in a hurricane. But it's remarkable how reliably the NYT adjusts its coverage depending on the political orientation of the affected party.#Cuba #nytimes #NewYorkTimes #InventingReality #uspol #socialism #communism #Ian #Hurricane #Parenti #Florida
