    What do they consider “Eastern Civilization” and how do the Soviets exemplify it? Do they adhere to Confucianism? Are they replacing Orthodox churches with Buddhist monasteries?

    What a weird, inaccurate take.

      Gulags were the last bastion of the Eastern Civilization, obviously. Then the Evil Westoids™ destroyed all that is sacred.

    That is a very demented take. But coming from the hour boots taste better crowd. 100% believable.

    Good to know that all the people in the West fighting for civil rights were wasting their time. Should have just relaxed and waited for the Soviets to hand civil rights to them.

    To be fair, there’s more human rights available per person after you purge twenty million.

    Americans are free to talk about all the fucked-up shit America did.

    Soviets, too, were free to talk about all the fucked-up shit America did.
