Nothing like the "warsaw pact" card, with all the old soviet officers sitting there looking like they are posing for a poster. "Your favorite MacGyver villans line up, collect them all!" Simply sit back until you are faced with the hard choice, start world war 3.. or launch the pope into space.

      Ikr. They just assume capitalism and profit is the only way to run a society, that money must exist for the purpose of growth rather than as a method of accounting or exchange, that collaboration can’t be an organizing principle. They also completely ignore the fact the Soviet Union arose from feudal imperialist Russia, like the least economically developed country in Europe and still managed to rival the greatest powers economically within like 30 years despite devastating world wars.
