Gorbachyov's anti-booze campaign that included price raise on alcohol is sometimes considered one of the reasons for the dissolution of the Soviet Union 😂
Not because people were based… Well, they were in a way — some started home-brewing which made alcohol production black market economy and that was a serious blow on state budget.
Alcohol consumption in Russia was only prohibited on rare special occasions though — mostly encouraged as it always was an important source of state revenue🥴
