Is "Papers, Please" inspired by real events or just the liberal perception of communist states? (lemmygrad.ml)

Very clearly obviously it’s propaganda based on the western projection that the commies were the same as Nazis and Nazis were famous for the “show your papers” thing.

Ironically the US police have always treated block people the way media represents the Nazis (and communists, inaccurately). Don’t ask Americans about why that’s ok but some old Soviet Union border guard asking for a passport was supposed to be representative of…anything more than what it always is
