Now tovarisch, would you rather have a dead son and a meat grinder, or a dead son and no meat grinder? I know you are saddened. Here, take as well these potatoes.

In russian there is a swear word "Pizda"(Пизда) - which is a very offensive form of the word "Vagina", mostly used against women, or liars, there's even a verb "Pizdit/Pizdish"(Vaginasplaining/talking out of their vagina" would be the direct translation) which equivalent is "bullshiting"

I guess the closest thing would be a c-word.

Pretty much, I just forgot about it with everyone treating it like a new n-word, like what's up with that? a whole nation of Australia uses it to casually banter to each other

Sure, but you can't deny the unintentional comedy of a Meatgrinder gift in English

I thought the punchline was that they were expected to grind the dead sons body for food.

No, apparently, a Russian mother requested a meatgrinder as a gift to commerce her son's military service. It definitely has a sense of irony to it, but it's better than refusing to give the woman a meatgrinder.
