minor difference is that one was a repressive dictatorship that killed tens of millions of their own citizens and jailed tens of millions more as "dissidents"; did not have the consent of the governed; did not allow their citizens to learn about the world through a free press; propagandized their population; and extended their military hegemony to equally repressive vassal dictatorships, some of which exist to this day. The country was evil incarnate, and one of the darkest stains on human history.
Your derpiness aside, what I do like is that you are starting to see the communist brainwashing unravel with characters like Philip, the tall Russian, and the lab monkey as they question the motives of their dictatorship and come to appreciate the United States.
