That is exactly how power dynamics work yes. Otherwise it would be like when a teenager tries to embargo their parents which almost every teenager tries to do at some point

My point is that if you only embargo countries that don't have something you need, you aren't really doing it for any altruistic reasons. You're doing it for political reasons, and it's time we stop pretending otherwise. Nobody cares about cuban refugees. They care about political power over Cuba. If Cuba suddenly had a TON of oil, everyone would gladly look the other way. Just like people look the other way toward our own human rights violations, including our own politicians.
