And their entire system fucking collapsed. And yes, the U.S. is a part of the reason for that collapse — but if you're seriously sitting here trying to suggest it was the reason, you are actually fucking dumb. Like, go talk to someone that lived in the Soviet Union — dumb.
Let me make this clear, I'm not giving you a history lesson — I'm also not sifting through Eastern sources because I'm not a dipshit. I shouldn't have to explain why a govt. that wantonly murders the people that work for it probably doesn't have records you can trust.
I'll be trusting Western sources. Not dipshits on Lemmy who have circlejerked on .ml for too long. Fuckin flat earth wannabes.
