    Accurate, but the fact that it’s a commentary form the Soviet Union is ironic as hell.

        It’s ironic, because unlike the US, the Soviet Union literally bled it self dry with war and its population was (and still is) beyond poor despite being among the luckiest countries when it comes to natural resources, while not being plagued by internal conflicts and foreign aggression like Africa. By all metrics Russia has no reason to be this backwards. It could easily be among the biggest economies, far surpassing the US, but nah… That’s what makes this ironic, shitting on other people while you’re literally dying.
