I didn’t know anything about Bhutan before reading this, but their culture sounds outstandingly Solarpunk to me.

Not so sure about that. Their happiness index and “culture” are a marketing stunt to lure tourists.

Yeah :/ it does appear that way. I looked into them a bit after reading the article, they’ve got a 61/100 score on the freedom house index (US is 83/100). From freedom of speech to freedom of religion, there seems to be a lot of not-as-advertised realities.
