This is like someone admiring early 20th-century art deco architecture in New York City and someone else responding with "pfft, Three Mile Island would like a word"

Did you hit your fuckin head or something? In what universe does your quip make any sense?

That's not a house

What exactly do you mean by this and what is your excuse for being stupid?

Chernobyl was the power plant, not the city

The city is Pripyat

And by all accounts both are still standing fifty years later, so that's a point in the Soviet's favor right there

Everyone else has already kind of eaten you up so I just want to add maybe examine your kneejerk reaction to this post? Seeing something positive said about the nation to put the first man in space and defeat the nazis among other things and then to immediately feel the need to find something bad to say about them is not a sign of someone with an open mind free of propaganda. But we were all there at one point its totally possible to break out of that. Not saying you have to love the USSR but getting to a point where you can discuss it objectively without having some need to bring up random failures in an unrelated conversation is healthy. You don't do that about the USA right? If I said Union Station in DC was pretty you wouldn't feel the need to bring up Japanese Internment, or Slavery for example right? Might be time for some introspection.

The maoist uprising against the landlords was the most comprehensive proletarian revolution in history, leading to almost totally equal redistribution of the land amongst the peasantry.
