That's so out of the blue? Is there any particular reason why the app got viral in the US?

No idea what made it go viral. That said, I just signed up and I'm digging it, this was literally the first thing in my feed

Idk about the Lenin one, the sickle and hammer is a model kit. Link https://xhslink.com/a/SPKllNtXQyF3
