      Dude… definitions exist. Sometimes things don’t meet them. Are you gonna deny that? Does “no true scotsman” just mean “any claim that a thing is not a true example of some category” to you? Is a bicycle a true example of a sandwich? Is a Frenchman living in Paris a true Scotsman?

      Did the USSR meet even one of those standards? Answer this if you only answer one.
