Since we are on the subject.
Are there any books/documentaries that describe the history of the USSR and the Cold War in painstakingly autistic detail?

USSR sucks

Both made the world worse off. Both were pretty similar in foreign policy/supporting bad guys abroad. The USA had much better domestic policy though.

Trying to match us in military spending while propping up multiple client states simultaneously. Honestly what we should've done was just sit on our haunches and wait, the Combloc was always doomed to collapse at some point.

I have a heart, and so I hate the USSR

- The USSR was bad?

- Totalitarian system, mass casualties, inefficient industry, agriculture killed, the bankruptcy of ideology, complete geopolitical defeat and disintegration of less than a century. I hate the Soviet Union.

Three man-made famine, civil war, looting villages and its decline. mediocre military campaign in World War II.
