“Russia couldn’t build a decent flush toilet during the Cold War.”

Don’t know where you heard that. I wound up over there once, right after the collapse, long story. I sat on an authentic soviet era throne.
So I finished my business and pushed the lever, and was unprepared for what happened next. About 250-300 gallons of water went through it in about 3 seconds. I can only describe it by saying it created a sound and feel as though I had pulled the handles on a Martin Baker rocket powered ejection seat.
I actually thought some sort of suction force might pull my anus inside out, jam my ass irretrievably down into the bowl,,, or something.

Might not have been water efficient or California approved, but yes FRiend. They sure could build a seat.

““Russia couldn’t build a decent flush toilet during the Cold War.””

There was a Cold War Era book, the title of which esccapes me, that gave the USSR cudos for some of their technology, but said that at that time they couldn’t built a decent flush toilet. And with respect to consumer goods a statement was made to the effect that if a beautiful woman walked throgh Red Square naked except for high-heels, the people would look at her feet. BTW your description fits they current generation “ejector toilets” on commercial aircraft. I always stand before activation because I have a vision of my private parts banging on the outside fo the fuselage!
