Even that’s not fair. The Soviets actually built some things. They were wrong wrong wrong,,but they could build MiGs that gave us fits until the modern era, they could build rockets, bridges, giant statues, etc etc.
The sand people are pure parasites, only capable of using tools other build for them. Name me one thing they have built on their own.
They didn’t even build the Pyramids. The civilization that built them was much more advanced and has vanished.
They are incapable of building a hammer and sickle that could be seen from space unless they had foreigners do it for them.
Just a side note. WHen the US got their hands on a Mig, they sent a famous US test pilot up in one (and he was excited to fly one). He put it into one of those Mig dives we had such a hard time dealing with. ALmost no control in a dive, it was a crude missile and he had to fight to pull it out of the dive before hitting the ground. I give them credit for a strategy - they made it fast and light and apparently planned to replace the pilots as needed!
Same with their space program. I was shocked to read that during the space race, it seems they sent up astronauts and sometimes couldn’t recover them from space. The plan was to announce the existence and triumphant success of the mission only after it landed safely with surviving passengers. I read of radio operators across the world and others detecting distress calls from orbit that got fainter etc. Replace the cosmonaughts - anything to compete.
