how US institutions train people to see the world in polar opposites and therefore incapable of describing the good actions performed by countries different than us or of seeing the bad actions habitually performed by ourselves or our allies.

I’d prefer to weigh the world (if we must weigh it at all) in more objective terms.

Cuban doctors are seen as a great resource to their homeland and to many other countries.
Their method of handling hurricanes saves a lot of lives as well.

Here, there are active efforts to suppress the number of doctors, to put them in debt (wouldn’t they be more powerful or independent otherwise?) and make them a scarce resource.

This region is suffering without Cuban doctors but US cruelty is the point. Bow down or die.

Mobile cabin hospitals, or Fangcang shelter hospitals, community treatment facilities, community treatment centers, or hotel-based quarantine centers, used in China became the model for treatment / quarantine centers during the Ebola outbreak + later for Covid triage. .

"We must all hang together, or we will surely all hang separately."

"USA First" or "USA Alone" or "USA against the world" all fall in the latter case.
