I hear Europeans gain Weight when they come here and lose it when they leave, with no change in eating habits.

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.

The millions of Ukrainians who starved during the Holodomor would beg to differ. Also, when exactly are they talking about? The USSR was around for 70~ years, that's a long time for them to improve things
That does kind of point out that the ending of the famine cycles in the modern world wasn't a capitalism vs socialism split or even centralization, it was technological innovation and industrialization itself.
The greatest famines of the mid to late 20th century were genocides, not crop failures, and hunger and lack on a daily basis in the 21st is a social choice.
