As for your comments, I disagree that the doc I linked is dishonest, manipulative, or misinformation. They didn’t need to poach from the politburo to look at the structure of the USSR, Americans like Pat Sloan already went to the USSR and reported on how it functioned (not to the CIA, but in general). Archival evidencen we have today backs up the claims made in the doc as well.
Sorry about the flu.
