I swear Zig Forums and Zig Forums are full of zoomer degenerates that think the world began in 2003 when Einstein invented the Internet.
I despair, I legitimately despair as I watch people barely a few years older than me completely ignorant of common knowledge.
It's no wonder they swallow bunk like holocaust denial!
Early Soviet Science
I meant to say younger.

This is obviously bullshit on so many levels.

I think it's part of the usual myth where the engineers who constructed impressive buildings or building complexes or whatever you want to call it, were all killed to keep the secrets hidden, or for them to never again build something as grand as that.
Sorry, comrades autists, I forgot to add word 'mobile' before word 'phone'
No kalashnikov worked off of his own experiences on the front line, not the StG. This has been debunked a million times.
Absolute horse shit
No, they had soviet engineers go to britain, learn the basics and applied it, with volunteer help, but they built it themselves.
Not really, they had silenced production of some tanks and other equipment, but only in the early inter-war years, before their own bureau's were created.
he men who get the most credit are Nobel Prize winner Charles H. Townes, Gordon Gould, and Arthur Schawlow. They get the majority of the attention because of a long-standing legal battle between Gould and Townes over who owns the patent on the final design.
However, if you look at Townes’s Nobel Prize, you might notice two other names: Nicolay G. Basov and Aleksandr M. Prokhorov. Basov and Prokhorov were working together to create something called a “maser” which works on a similar principle as a laser and is for all intents a laser. Townes stumbled upon the same discovery at about the same time, which is why they shared the Prize. However, while Townes, despite his losses in court, still gets a majority of the credit for inventing the laser, Basov and Prokhorov remain unknown.
Reminder that the soviets had no food and if they did it was bad and it wasn't it was smuggled and if it wasn't they were high ranking party members and if they weren't it was a special occasion and if it wasn't… look, they just had no food, okay? Their military is insignificant, their transportation network was nothing important, their houses small, their tech stolen, their intellectuals dumber etc. etc. but somehow they were also such a huge threat to a bloc of countries which has historically been significantly more developed and was able to go toe to toe with them on a lot of things.
Anti-soviet platitudes are always so goddamn stale, they're more deceprit than Lenin's corpse. Just consider the state of the Russian Empire compared to the United States in 1917. The fact that the USSR managed to get close to parity on a lot of things is an insane achievement. They might not have won the game but they were playing on ultra hard against an easy mode player.
Thanks for referring to my post, but the one after from the person whose grandfather has actually flown in a Tupolev is much better as it gives an actual example of what I was trying to explain.
