You know this is a crock. This “New Soviet Man’’ is wearing a Western-style suit, nice hair and he’s eating meat. The fact he’s even eating at all is a stretch, such as things were in the old Soviet Union.

Besides the Stalin's engineered famine in the 1930 (mostly Ukraine and a part of Southern Russia), the war and the immediate postwar years, things were not quite as bleak as you describe over there. I always cringe when conservatives propagate simplistic generalizations, makes us look like fools.
