I said this elsewhere, but in season 3, all the real world, non-fantastical problems are critiques of Capitalism. Even the "pro-capitalism" little girl goes from describing Capitalism to Project Child Endangerment.
Now this could all be a part of pacing and leading storytelling where you have to give the viewer what they expect to lead them where you want. But then, I noticed this last night after finishing my rewatch, when Dustin is radioing Suzie he interrupts her reading of Earthsea by Ursula Le Guin. So even if there's anti-communism going on, I suspect there's a comrade on the writing staff.
Or just a liberal that likes appropriating communist shit.
Out of curiosity, I checked Google trends and there was a small spike in searches for Earthsea in July 2019 when Season 3 was announced released. So that's cool, at least.
It’s fun slop, but you have to go into it with 80s nostalgia that lets you accept that the Soviets are basically just cartoon villains.

looks like it: https://m.imdb.com/title/tt7911942/trivia/
Oh, yeah, totally possible too, but there are a lot of left leaning writers in Hollywood.
I did notice the line but couldn't think of what it was from. I just remember thinking it was funny because of how bullshit it was.
