The USSR did very well (and wasn’t just the RSFSR, but instead a federation of socialist republics). So well, in fact, that life expectancies doubled due to the advancements in development and social safety nets in socialism:
Complaining about communist “denialism” when the original claim is just generic Red Scare fearmongering doesn’t really make sense. What are communists denying, specifically? The idea that the communists were as bad as the Nazis? Such a claim is so thoroughly ahistorical that it doesn’t take a communist to find that absurd.
Plus civilians, which don’t seem to count here
They’re making fun of some of the most ardent civilian killers of all time.
I think it is more another case of “us vs them” tankie denialism. West is evil, no doubt, but Russia didn’t do to well either.

The votes do not lie. It’s smells of tankies here. Why can’t normal people just rant away about the US and Russia at the same time???
I want to make extra sure you know that Russia and the USSR are different countries.
