Soviet students showed no double standard about superpower military intervention rights
Evidence
There it can be seen, for example, that the 111 students who answered form A of the survey disagreed fairly strongly with the notion that the Soviet Union has the right to intervene militarily in its neighbors’ affairs. It can also be seen that the 115 students who answered form B objected just as strongly, but not more so, to the notion that the United States has such a right. That is, there is no evidence of a double standard in these answers. — Bob Altemeyer, The Authoritarian Specter, 1634
