Can someone ELI5 the Cuba situation.

Theres so much propaganda and misinformation I cant tell whats up down left and right. 

I have a socialist friend whos like 25 years old and she loves fidel castro and basically says Cuba is doing well, I just saw that they reached 100% vaccinations and their death rate is declining on twitter but when I try to research it on my own It gets so messy. 

I dont have anything at all against socialism or capitalism. I'm sure it sounds ridiculous but I just adapt to my environment best I can and just be happy with the present moment even being conscious of all these conceptual, and relative limitations. I hated capitalism for like my whole life but it didnt do shit for me really, even if I did want to exist in a socialist society I'm sure I would need big money to make the changes and I'm all for revolution if need be, but at the same time I cant lie I am grateful for just being alive and I do consider myself to be somewhat free even though I have to work like a slave to maintain the freedom I believe in a sense its fair because its not like I gotta go forge for nuts and berries and shit, I just sit in my room and help people get cars and make money selling art at the same time.  I'm aware its not like this for everyone in USA obviously, I'm very conscious of my privilege in this aspect. 

But I'm interested in knowing exactly whats happening there. Is it as great as the people on twitter make it seem or is it just socialist propaganda and if so why?
