Comment on The mass electrification of the Soviet Union

I can waste all day naming USSR wrongdoings, but at the beginning their leaders had a medieval country that was ages before it’s peers in any sense, thanks it’s monarchs, and while some of them were shooting Machno guys, exiling intellectuals and creating proto-ICE from poverty commitees, I can not deny their literacy and infrastructure powermoves. If monarchy lasted up until now, I doubt we’d have an accessible school and electricity provider in every god-forgotten place. I could’ve also mentioned healthcare, but the little fuck and his co-leeches toned it down in the last ten years.
