This doesn’t make any sense. What’s wrong with this guy?

"This doesn’t make any sense. What’s wrong with this guy?"

It seems to me what he's saying is that, in their zeal to rid Russia of all vestiges of it's Communist legacy, those in the Orthodox Church outside Russia have too much of an anti-Russian tone to them and that maybe they better wait until it can be done out of purely religious motives, not nationalistic ones.

I'm not agreeing with one side or the other, that just seems to me what's going on here.

I understand him to mean that they want to bury Lenin with as little civil upheaval as possible and they believe that there is not yet a broad consensus within Russian society for this course of action.

IOW, they're waiting for more of the old school communists to depart this earthly existence.
