Did the soviets force Boeing to make shitty planes?

They had plenty worse of their own. Look up the TU-104 for example

Obviously it’s a no to your obvious question. Consider the point that the other person is making, though… Planes are bad sometimes regardless of whether they were built in capitalist or communist societies, so perhaps the root cause is not politics.
