In Soviet Russia, people understand the context of "Soviet Russia" jokes and don't just invert any random phrase.

Humor actually, y'know, says something. Just invoking a meme thoughtlessly is... jeez, it's worse than new Xkcd.

Didn't the joke originally come from some comedian stating "In Soviet Russia, TV watches you!" because of how people were monitored back then?
Yakov Smirnoff, a comedian from the Ukraine, came up with the joke I believe. It's also known as the Russian Reversal.

In Soviet Russia, joke originates you!
The Russian Reversal? That sounds like either a wrestling move or some kinky sex act.
I really didn't need to hear that last part. Really really didn't.

Really? I just assumed that it ran in the family since your mother loves my Russian Reversals so much. ; )
