Yeah no guys this is a modern food nutrition thing. Paired with -I would say- a rather mild jab at how American education has a bit of a nonsensical ‘Stalin bad’ attitude towards educating its population about the history and impact of the USSR.

    Pretty sure you’re just being deliberately obtuse. The CIA was definitely going to be talking about the Soviet Union not under Stalin. That was most of the Soviet Union, even.

    Idk where you’re coming off that a hit against American history classes is unwarranted. US grade school education about the USSR takes a snapshot of the 1930s and then it’s the fall of the Berlin Wall.

      Straw is terrible for defence but it might do for misdirection. Not in this instance though. That was pretty bad.

      The image literally name drops Stalin and then provides a report from 30 years later as a gotcha.

      It’s almost like… There was mass starvation under Stalin, and then it got better.
