It feels like a Soviet system, or, you know, the way the Nazis would build a Potemkin village.

Otter: Nazis?

Boon: Forget it, he's rolling.

A few stalwart FReepers have pointed out that Potemkin Villages have nothing to do with Nazis, but it wasn’t even started by the Soviets. It dates back to Catherine the Great, showcasing some defects in Russian character going way back.

Also, equating Nazis and Soviets is a big red Bozo no-no with the lefties. Ken better be careful. He might get cancelled.
