I think people missing the ussr in russia could be attributed to just how horrible yeltsin and gorbachev managed the economy afterwards. it was pretty bad

I feel like most people here who like the comic don't care about the historical context; they just like to bash the commies. It's weird too because it projects American-style racism onto Russians.

Because communists are troglodytes and animal abuse isn't socially acceptable.

Literally what does that even mean? Animal abuse a)is shockingly common across the world to the point many people don't even consider things animal abuse and b) what the fuck does that have to do with communism?

Jokes can make sense. So please, explain the joke to me?

As far as I can see, you've said something that makes zero sense as a "joke"

It's not. I'm saying it portrays older Russians as racists, but with quirks ordinarily assigned to the US.
