Why would communist support capitalists like Putin and Xi-Jinping which aren’t better than Liberal-capitalists ?
I am all in for stopping liberal capitalism, but I am more interested in implementing a happinex index like Buthan than living in oligarch-capitalist-regime like Russia/China
“I’m not a Putin apologist, I just coincidentally reach the same talking points as Russian propaganda through my totally unbiased research!”
Putin was forced to start a proxy war, shoot down a passenger plane, annex Crimea, invade the whole of Ukraine and commit multiple war crimes, because the people didn’t elect his friends, you see. /s
I’m not a Saddam, I just coincidentally reached the same talking points as Iraqi propaganda through my totally unbiased research.

Russian propaganda is different for different audiences. There’s one propaganda line for Russian nationalists at home, a different line for right-leaning Westerners, and a different one for left-leaning Westerners, among many, many others. And the one you’re repeating is the propaganda line for left-leaning Westerners. It sounds more reasonable to us because we’re the target audience, but don’t be fooled, it’s pure BS-- same as the other propaganda lines.
