That's not how English works...

Game this out a bit for me, why in the meme, does this part refer to a very small subset of women:

Women in the USSR were in space

And this one has to refer to all women:

    Well, for me it's basic knowledge of space travel, and the seemingly obvious fact that the USSR didn't send all of their women into space?

    Context matters. That is how English works (for better or worse)
