Not sure parent should be considered as inflammatory as you take it to be. The core idea was that having 5 vaccines that performed well is a good showing for a small country, especially one that has been under heavy embargo for many decades.
- dang 5y agoIf the GP had posted that sentence instead, it would of course have been fine. The problem is when it comes in the form of ideological boilerplate.
- leto_ii 5y agoThe following is the entirety of the GP, quoted here for ease of access: > Cuba actually has 5 vaccine candidates, and 2 of them have greater than 90% effectiveness. A great showing for a small, socialist island nation under decades of embargo by hostile anti-communist forces. Which part is ideological boilerplate? Is it false that Cuba is a small, socialist island nation? Is it false that it has been under decades of embargo? Is it false that the forces that are imposing the embargo (mainly the US) are hostile to Cuba and anti-communist? NOTE: You should not infer any agreement or disagreement to GP from my comment. I simply find it to be literally, factually correct. If it isn't please point me to sources that invalidate any of the factual points I mentioned.
