"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.
“Not so bad over there’’ Jeez Louise, if it were truly the ‘’workers paradise’’ they’d still be at it. You lived in the old Soviet Union , did you? Stalin was a monster, one of the greatest political mass murderers of all time. “Cosmopolitan’’. That’s the word I was looking for in regard to that propaganda poster. That dude was ‘’cosmopolitan’’ to the hilt. I wonder if who ever drew it was ‘’re-educated for that somewhere.
