Historical Disinformation will be removed
I know almost nothing about the structures and organization of the USSR. So comments like this drive me nutty a little because A) Everyone has a grandma with stories of the USSR and they love to tell you, and B) I know that grandma isn't some historical materialist. So I'm left wondering were the truth lies.
