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

      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.
