dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in /c/slop

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

I really don't think it's a matter of "sucking" and more a matter of nazis destroying or damaging the vast majority of Soviet agricultural land

It's a miracle bustbowl conditions didn't emerge after the war due to the overcapacity that the non-occupied arable land was subjected to

Also agriculture in general sucked all over the world up to the 40s, 50s and early 60s, it wasn't until the early 70s that the silent Green Revolution revolutionized and TRULY industrialized agriculture in the breadbaskets of planet earth
