This person tried to tell me peanut butter was illegal in the Soviet Union because they saw it on stranger things. Like…. you know you can fact check that right? You just believe whatever the tv tells you??

It’s even FUNNIER cuz they were talking about how much they hate the 4th, USA and capitalism… like bestie that was kinda the Soviet unions whole thing. What’s worse is I ask them: what makes them evil? And they answer: because the soviets are evil.

Honestly it’s just sad because people are just so content in their lil ignorance bubbles. Learning about communism from corporate media, being led a stray from any actual class consciousness.

We must never stop explaining in this upside down world. ( lol get it)

    Everyone keeps talking about that show. Stranger things this, stranger things that. I decided to check it out myself, and it was pretty interesting. Then they started talking about Russian this, Russian that, and spreading anti-communism propaganda. I just couldn’t get past season 2. It’s flooded with that bullshit.

      Sucks because it’s actually a pretty well written show otherwise. Scratches that Stephen King itch big time if that’s your thing.

        It was so good in season 1, then it just went downhill in season 2. I literally can’t watch it without feeling disgusted at how they use the popularity as an opportunity to spread anti-commie propaganda.
