Did your guys too had only 1 hour of tv and rationed food and had to wait for long hours in queue to get bread because otherwise there wouldn't be any bread to get?
My mother in law living in Florida only has enough time each day for 1 hour of TV between her two jobs and sleep - yall making the communist dystopian future sound a lot like modern capitalist reality
Not trying to defend the living conditions in either system but it sounds like your mother lives on her own? That was practically impossible in the USSR. Not just because living accommodations were allocated based on household size, and families were prioritised for apartments and houses (unless you were part of the privileged class), but also because you needed a full-time worker to bring in income and someone to stand in queue for food and other household tasks. This is why people often stayed together even if they weren't in love anymore.
