now i’ve heard in recent times they literally dressed up a nazi prison camp as a soviet gulag, but after watching it with my sisters, (they had a party for their graduation, because they’re in highschool) the shit is so liberal. Why they make some cops mean, the message is that they’re so great, and they even downplay MK ultra as some fantasy thing. It’s garbage.

    Lol don’t forget how their scary communist gulag is in Kamchatka, which didn’t have any gulags. Literally braindead.

    I still enjoy the sci-fi, and I want to find out what happens, but there’s a lot of trash in it.

      Do these guys even know that the GULAG camps needed logistical support and supplies?

      Not to mention the fact that they needed a way to somehow deliver the results of the prisoners’ labor to the center

        The show’s worse than that. It shows them extensively hammering railroad spikes, into frozen ground, inside the labor camp, at a location that has a tool shed. Like, I’m pretty sure they wouldn’t stay in the same spot. They also claim peanut butter was illegal in the USSR. It’s just trash.

        I’m still enjoying watching it, but it’s trash.
