Ever since Donald decided he was buds with Putin the right (well I shouldn’t say that because many on the right see him for what he is and can’t stand him. I should say Trumpkins do) have done nothing but cheerlead Putin and Russia on relentlessly.


Please give examples.

That Putin is trying his damnedest to bring back the USSR


I don't believe Putin is trying to revive the U.S.S.R. as we knew it. I think he sees himself more in tune with the old Russian Empire, but knows he will have to incorporate some Soviet style into it. He would fancy himself as a Tsar before being a General Secretary.

Was the USSR big on open borders?

It's like the left has taken the worst parts of every political movement and merged them into one big shite show

Any SS flags at the parade or do we have to go to Kiev or Lviv for that?

This isn't new. It's a memorial to the Soviet troops that fought in WWII. That's who Russia WAS at the time.

And notice that the carry the current Russian flag higher.

No one is going back to Communism in Russia. No one wants it. The Communist Party in Russia is an afterthought, like the Greens here.

They rewrote their internal borders to play the ethnic groups against each other, and by the 80s they were working to reshape the demographics of the Russian SSR through internal migration, bringing in people from Central Asia.

That migration of Central Asians has continued under Putin.

The USSR also had horrific abortion rates.

Edit - I assume their domestic policies damaged the birth rate, in the same way ours have. Importing people from the republics was about getting workers.

It means they do not have a bunch of PC crybabies in Russia. They embrace their past for what it was.
