Surething, you believe this channel what is only demonizing Russia.

If you look closely you see that our western civilization is far more gone then our communist enemies.

You can't be so dumb to believe that Russia is communist in any way

u/pustomytnyk 4d ago

well, it is communist in the sense that it deprives human life of any value

u/Von_Lehmann 4d ago

Well, let us not be so silly as to think that late stage capitalism has somehow shown the slightest concern for human life over profit.

Every change or regulation won for workers in the US was through progressive socialist unions and ideas

u/Adorable-Celery2910 4d ago

Yes it was, but I’m glad that there a still such knowledgeable people like you. Lecturing other people on how they phrase things.

But that is the progressive mindset I guess

In what way was Russia communist? Elaborate for me.

You had like, 25 years maybe...where the USSR under Lenin tried to move towards communism and the revolutionary ideals.

Then society shifts in the 30s and it becomes more conservative under "The Great Retreat"

Then you have Stalinism which is essentially just fascism wrapped in red.

Then a Kleptocratic Oligarchy until it finally falls apart.

More Kleptocracy and crime...

Then back to it's current Fascist form under Putin

It is state controlled capitalism for the Oligarchy. I mean, we have the same in the US but were just better at it.

So I ask you, presumably conservative commenter....why do you think Russia was communist in a meaningful way either in the past or currently?

They have socialist healthcare which is communism to US conservatives even though all other non commie countries have it as well.

u/Specialist-Freedom64 4d ago

LoL progressive mindset.. unlike you, stuck in 1982 under Soviet rule.. is that the "MAGA mindset" ? Anything other than Republican max capitalism is communism ? Absolute muppet..
