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)
Can’t say “US bad” without adding “Russia worst” amirightfellas?
But really, the soviets parts really make the show worse even for non communists, its simply cartoonishly evil people doing shit because yes. It goes completely against the vibe of the show.
But even when trying to make them the stupid evil villains, Netflix somehow made the USSR look like more competent than the US (Spoilers ahead if u care) I mean the soviets got the fucking mind flayer and 1 bazillion demogorgons corpses and amerikkkans cant even kill 1 of them without eleven holy shit.
LMAO oh my god you’re so right. They try so hard to make the soviets look bad but actually make them look more powerful
