Well, no shit they’re gonna have those images, because if you read into what actually caused it, it was due to massive overreporting of harvests. On paper it was bumper crops and there were good harvests early on IN SPITE of the idiotic ideas the ussr exported to china. When you take an entire field of wheat, compress it into a small PR-sized image and use it to claim the entire field is that bountiful, well, guess what happens at the top? Yep, the top sees a massive surplus that is ripe for exporting during a time when forex means the ability to buy shit the country needs. Are you going to be the first to stand out and admit you lied to your superiors in a big way? Or are you going to do whatever it takes to come close to the claims you made? Especially in an environment where corruption was a thing that was flat out not tolerated. And if you are willing to admit you lied to spare the people, all that will happen is you’ll be doomed and someone who was willing to maintain their fiction will be brought in as a replacement. New government, new system, still figuring things out, you’d have to be crazy to not try and get a leg up to move up, aaaaaand then everyone starved.
