Someone wrote a whole analysis of this document to debunk it and in the end confirmed what the document said, that USSR citizens consumed about the same amount of calories as USians, but that the composition of the USSR diet was different to what the CIA said in this doc.
And somehow they felt that disproved the entire document lol.
It doesn't matter to libs whether or not something is actually true, only whether they can find some technicality to dismiss information they don't like. Even if their own analysis ultimately agrees with something they disagree with, they will ignore their own findings to preserve their own beliefs.
