You really love that nonsensical propaganda, lol. Yeltsin was a bona fide rightoid. He just joined CPSU for purely selfish, careerist reasons. Which he himself admitted.

Fact. You're have to be a full-blown r-slur to think that a high-level Soviet official would have some "Road to Damascus" moment from seeing a supermarket.

The five times burgers saved the world.
American revolution inspired anti-imperialist and anti-monarchy sentiment spreading around the world leading to further revolutions and the beginning of the bongs getting btfo of all their overseas holdings.
Modernized the world via electrical and early communications innovations. This saved the sperm whale.
Cured like all the fricking diseases, and fed starving frickers for like 100 years straight
Bailed out western europe twice even tho we could have let em rot. Then stopped the commies from gulaging the world for 50 years.
Gave the world GPS, the internet, and like 90% of modern technological/medical developments.
These are jokes but the truth is the world owes the burgers big time and the vast majority non-american adults realize this. But it doesn't stop the seething.

The conditions of the USSR sucked butt so it’s not surprising at all how many lies they needed to believe about American standard of life to not immediately kill themselves.
