I wouldn’t pretend to be an expert but England aside, my two favourite teams at the World Cup so far have been Ecuador and Japan.

🚨 Arsene Wenger on Lionel Messi's hat-trick and becoming the World Cup's all time leading goalscorer:

🗣“What we witnessed today goes beyond another record. It is the continuation of a career that has consistently redefined the standards of excellence in football.

It wasn't simply a hat-trick,it was the quality of the goals, the intelligence behind every decision, and the efficiency with which Messi influenced the game. Those are the qualities that separate truly exceptional players from the rest.

For many years people have tried to compare Messi with other great footballers, but there comes a point where comparisons lose their meaning. He has built a legacy that stands on its own.

What fascinates me most is his evolution. I genuinely don't know whether the young Messi, with his explosive pace and dribbling, was better than the experienced Messi we see today, who controls every moment of the game with his intelligence and understanding. Very few players improve with age the way he has.

The emotion after his second goal revealed another side of his greatness. It reminded everyone of the difficult journey he has had with Argentina,the disappointments, the criticism, and the perseverance that eventually led to glory. That emotional connection with his country continues to drive him.

To score his first World Cup hat trick while becoming the tournament's all time leading goalscorer is an extraordinary achievement. It is another milestone in a career that already seemed impossible to improve.

Perhaps the most remarkable aspect is his longevity. He finished the 2022 World Cup by lifting the trophy after scoring twice in the final, and he has opened the 2026 tournament with a hattrick. At almost 39 years of age, he continues to perform with the same clarity, technical quality, and love for the game that defined him in his twenties.

That is the mark of a truly timeless footballer.”

Lo primero: no es "bloqueo", es embargo. La terminología importa, y usarla mal ya dice algo sobre el análisis que viene después.

El embargo estadounidense a Cuba nació en 1960 como respuesta a las expropiaciones masivas de propiedades de ciudadanos americanos tras la revolución castrista. Kennedy lo formalizó en 1962. Tiene dimensión extraterritorial desde 1992 (Ley Torricelli) y se endureció en 1996 con la Ley Helms-Burton. Es una medida unilateral de EEUU, criticable en muchos aspectos, pero llamarla "bloqueo" cuando Cuba comercia libremente con España, China, Alemania, Brasil, México o Canadá es, simplemente, inexacto. De hecho, según datos del Observatorio de Complejidad Económica del MIT, España es el primer socio comercial de Cuba en importaciones (23% del total) y el segundo en exportaciones (13%). Alguien debería explicar cómo funciona ese "bloqueo".

Ahora los datos que el relato oficial prefiere ignorar.
En 1958, antes de la revolución, Cuba tenía el tercer PIB per cápita más alto de América Latina, por detrás solo de Venezuela y Uruguay. Duplicaba al de España. Igualaba al de Italia. La economía dominicana era entonces tres o cuatro veces más pequeña que la cubana.

¿Y hoy? Según el Anuario Estadístico 2025 de la CEPAL, Cuba es la economía con menor PIB per cápita de toda América Latina y el Caribe: 1.083 dólares anuales por habitante, frente a una media regional de 10.212 dólares. Una brecha del 90%. República Dominicana, sin ningún embargo, alcanza los 10.867 dólares. Costa Rica, 18.867. Cuba está incluso por debajo de Haití, históricamente el país más pobre del hemisferio. Y mientras el resto de América Latina creció un 4,7% en 2024-2025, Cuba acumuló su segundo año consecutivo de contracción.

¿El embargo explica todo esto? La pregunta relevante es por qué República Dominicana, Jamaica, Costa Rica o Panamá, países sin acceso privilegiado a ningún mercado especial y con economías de partida mucho peores que la cubana, han multiplicado su renta per cápita mientras Cuba retrocede. Si el embargo fuera la variable explicativa fundamental, necesitaríamos una teoría que explique por qué solo destruye la economía de Cuba y no la de ninguno de sus vecinos caribeños.

La respuesta es que Cuba ha sido una economía dependiente de forma crónica de regímenes que la subvencionaban a cambio de subordinación política: primero la URSS, que llegó a representar el 35% del PIB cubano en subsidios y el 80% de su comercio exterior; luego Venezuela con el petróleo de Chávez y Maduro. Cuando esos subsidios se cortaron, la economía colapsó. No porque llegara el embargo, sino porque sin el sostén externo el modelo no genera riqueza por sí solo. Sesenta años de economía centralizada, sin propiedad privada real, sin mercado, sin incentivos, tienen consecuencias. Los datos de la CEPAL las certifican.

Y luego está lo que muchos prefieren no mencionar: Cuba no es solo un fracaso económico. Es una dictadura. Sin elecciones libres, sin pluralismo político, sin libertad de prensa, sin derecho de reunión, sin posibilidad de salir del país libremente hasta hace relativamente poco. Freedom House la clasifica sistemáticamente como "no libre", con una de las puntuaciones más bajas del mundo en derechos políticos y libertades civiles. Los mismos que denuncian con razón retrocesos democráticos en otros países del mundo miran hacia otro lado cuando se trata de Cuba. Esa coherencia selectiva también es un dato.

Volviendo al paper: si el modelo econométrico tiene sesgo, la respuesta científica es construir uno mejor, con mejores datos y mejor identificación. Eso es lo que hace la ciencia. Lo que no hace la ciencia es concluir primero y torturar los datos después para llegar a donde uno quería llegar. Eso tiene otro nombre.

Today, Telegram notified all its users in Spain with this alert:

Pedro Sánchez’s government is pushing dangerous new regulations that threaten your internet freedoms. Announced just yesterday, these measures could turn Spain into a surveillance state under the guise of “protection.” Here’s why they’re a red flag for free speech and privacy:

1. Ban on social media for under-16s with mandatory age verification: This isn’t just about kids—it requires platforms to use strict checks, like needing IDs or biometrics.

⚠️ Danger: It sets a precedent for tracking EVERY user’s identity, eroding anonymity and opening doors to mass data collection. What starts with minors could expand to all, stifling open discourse.

2. Personal and criminal liability for platform executives: If “illegal, hateful, or harmful” content isn’t removed fast enough, bosses face jail.

⚠️ Danger: This will force over-censorship—platforms will delete anything remotely controversial to avoid risks, silencing political dissent, journalism, and everyday opinions. Your voice could be next if it challenges the status quo.

3. Criminalizing algorithm amplification: Amplifying “harmful” content via algorithms becomes a crime.

⚠️ Danger: Governments will dictate what you see, burying opposing views and creating echo chambers controlled by the state. Free exploration of ideas? Gone—replaced by curated propaganda.

4. “Hate and polarization footprint” tracking: Platforms must monitor and report how they “fuel division.”

⚠️ Danger: Vague definitions of “hate” could label criticism of the government as divisive, leading to shutdowns or fines. This can be a tool for suppressing opposition.

These aren’t safeguards; they’re steps toward total control. We’ve seen this playbook before—governments weaponizing “safety” to censor critics. On Telegram, we prioritize your privacy and freedom: strong encryption, no backdoors, and resistance to overreach.

✊ Stay vigilant, Spain. Demand transparency and fight for your rights. Share this widely—before it’s too late.

Formula 1 is in a tough spot.

They timed up the hype of Netflix's F1 show PERFECTLY with a super competitive season in 2021.

But now Red Bull wins every race by 20 seconds & many new fans in the US are already losing interest.

The sport needs to be competitive to keep growing.
