“ In Soviet Russia there is a story”
This is explicitly labeled as a story. It is a parable used to illustrate a point. Do you also demand evidence of the boy who cried wolf? Or little red riding hood who strayed from the safe path? These are the same kind of things.
I would understand your question maybe if the article would purport the existence of the shoe factory. But it doesn’t. And that is not the point of it.
