    Trust me, I’ve been following this stuff as well. I am no fan of america, but saying its better than russia is just objectively bad.

      and i’m literally on the receiving end of US and european imperialism. the US sponsored a brutal military dictatorship in my country and on most of our neighbours, and still sponsors the plundering of our natural resources and workforce. shit, they tried to put a dictator in power in here recently, we barely escaped.

      modern-day russia doesn’t have as much influence throughout the world, nor does it have as bloody military by a big margin.

        What the U.S did was terrible, obviously. That should go without saying.

        Although, I’m pretty sure Russia does have influence, with all the troll farms and whatnot.
