    Dont give them too much, funnily even the Russian system post 91 isnt half as corrupt and destructive to its own people as the American system is.

      Regardless, it’s still a capitalist system and not an ideal to persue.

      There’s no one set of policies that define Marxism anyway. Being critically supportive of a government abroad doesn’t mean you want to institute all of its policies at home, and that’s my main point.

        That’s fair, I just see lemmygrad has a lot of libs at the moment and i dont want to cede any ground lest they try to pull it towards the Western “leftist” standard of “sure america bad but russia worse,” Russia today is not my ideal but it is better than America by no small margin

          That’s also fair, it’s difficult to have an intelligent conversation when the libs are waiting to twist anything we say around in the worst possible light. That is, when they’re not just fully pulling shit out of their asses like “supporting Trump”
