    One of the great achievements of the Soviet Union is making what was exclusive and rare for the bourgeoise to enjoy from their high towers via their expropriated wealth a mass-produced enjoyable and affordable commodity the average worker could enjoy with regularity.

    Things like Champaign, caviar, ice cream, etc. were Sovietized to the distraught and great irritation of the international capitalist order.

    Stalin made sure the treats flowed to greatly improve the standards of living of the Soviet people.

    Best ice cream in the world, folks. You look at a carton of American “frozen dairy product” and what do you see? Words you can’t even pronounce in the ingredients in a list that takes up the whole package. You know how many ingredients there are in Soviet ice cream? Four. Milk, sugar, eggs, and vanilla. All fresh, folks. Best ice cream in the world. Fresh, natural, delicious. Stalin took those American ice cream makers and found out how to make frozen heaven on earth. Thank you, Steel Joe, for your wisdom and genius!

      This sounds like the opposite of that one NAFO thread about how plombus is trash and Soviet propaganda.

    Is the cursive Russian or a different language? I’ve never seen Russian cursive so I have no idea.

        Some words in Russian may pose a challenge due to the similarities between the letters Ш, Щ, И, Л, М in cursive.

        The word решили (reshili), which means “they decided”, or “it was decided”.

        There’s another photo on the page…

      Probably still Russian. I’ve heard Russian cursive is famously quite difficult to read.
