Yeah no guys this is a modern food nutrition thing. Paired with -I would say- a rather mild jab at how American education has a bit of a nonsensical ‘Stalin bad’ attitude towards educating its population about the history and impact of the USSR.

CIA was formed in 1947
Stalin’s reign ended in 1953
The Soviet Union fell in 1991
Given the text has no date of reference it could be referring to any year between 47 and 91 and I’m doubtful the cia was producing caloric comparisons during the very first years of it’s inception, so I’m also doubtful it refers to the Stalin years.
Given the above I thought I’ll check the date of the source document.
What do you know? The text is from a document dated 1983.
The meme is shit.
Pretty sure you’re just being deliberately obtuse. The CIA was definitely going to be talking about the Soviet Union not under Stalin. That was most of the Soviet Union, even.
Idk where you’re coming off that a hit against American history classes is unwarranted. US grade school education about the USSR takes a snapshot of the 1930s and then it’s the fall of the Berlin Wall.
The image literally name drops Stalin and then provides a report from 30 years later as a gotcha.
It’s almost like… There was mass starvation under Stalin, and then it got better.
