A Soviet analysis that has aged like the finest of wines, due to the trend of full spectrum decay under capitalism being irreversible so long as the system remains dominant, with the working class at the mercy of capitalists and landlords.
This was absolutely laughable! Everything that they said on the state of the USA was true then and even more true today. Hilarious how the presenter refutes the Soviet claims by merely saying “no, that’s not true” without any substance.
I showed it to my mum who grew up in the Soviet Union and she came to the same conclusion. It reminded her of some old magazines from the 1970s called Крокодил, (Crocodile) that she has which have some more humourous commentary on the US that she’ll be sharing with me.
Very wholesome to have a development like this take place. You are quite fortunate to have such a family member to pull firsthand experience from, in addition to physical resources that become more and more critical to the preservation of world history. I have also posted an extended version, should you take interest. I am happy for you and your mother, and wish you good health and prosperity.
