Yeah it doesn't make sense in any way. Aren't the pictures of soviet breadlines from the middle of the great depression or something? I guess that's why the CIA cooked up "whataboutism" as a deflection

There were breadlines in the 80's particularly during peristroika as well, but again, there were breadlines in the U.S. as well.
