All of which are true,
Just how do you think Angola and Mozambique got their independence?
It was with massive help from the Soviet Union.
And you are going to trash Putin for not being pleased about the collapse of the Soviet Union?
Would you be happy if your country collapsed?
How much US tax subsidy do you favor for Ukraine? What specific amount of our tax dollars should Biden send there over the next 12 months?
No I’m not supporting biden., but I’m not supporting Putin either I’m not supporting anti-American atheist globalist like you are
$0.00
This is why the globalist left hates him
A more authoritarian Trump to them
Neocons think that as well but they love the Cold War
Putin is right about us and those here he’s opposing are a more clear and present danger than he is
It shows your ignorance because Biden has to pretend he’s against Russia and Putin but he isn’t. This goes back to Obama when Obama supported Putin
Those photographs of the patriotic demonstration in Red Square of the scores of large Russian flags tossed into trash cans and thrown on the ground show that the rally:
1. Moved numbers of people there who did not give a flip about Russia, but they were handed large Russian flags to wave.
2. Many showed no respect for their own flag which is one of Putin’s values and a Western value.
3. The Red Square celebration was a staged event with lots of “extras” who were probably forced to attend.
4. It is no wonder that Lyman has already left the Russian Federation after being part of Russia for only one day.
Do you know what it’s like in russia? Do you know what the life expectancy is? Do you know what the level of suicide and immorality is?
Since you hate the United States and Christianity why don’t you move to your Russian paradise?
Its not that Putin is a marxist, its that Russian communism destroyed the Church in Russia and it never recovered. Now, the Russian Church is a state controlled organ.
Russian priests bless missiles
All of which are true,
Its crazy to think that the termination of the Soviet Union was a ‘national catastrophe’.
Life isn’t a zero sum game. The Clintons and Putin are cut from the same filthy cloth. They all suck.
I’m so glad that you included Boris Nemtsov among the patriotic anti-Putin Russian martyrs. More Freepers should know his name. He is best known for exposing Putin’s pedophilia, but he also exposed Putin’s economic corruption. He stated,
“...there is a myth spreading about how, in the 1990s, we democrats were pals with oligarchs while Putin was fighting them. It was exactly the other way around. We did not let Berezovsky get a foothold in [the world’s largest natural gas company] Gazprom, we did not allow him to take over the Svyazinvest company [Russia’s largest telecom holding]. Yet Putin used to go to his birthday parties and bring flowers to his wife. It was Berezovsky who lobbied for Putin to become president and then financed his campaign...”
I know what its like in Chicago and New York City. They are hell on earth.
Nowhere in Russia come even close to the massive crime rates in the big Dem run cities in America, where murder runs high, only for the killers to get released swiftly if they happen to get arrested.
I lived in NYC for 20 years. I know and have experienced the frightening crime rates there.
i wouldn’t disagree with him.
‘Western Values’ are not the same as ‘Western liberal Values’
in general, the world has a problem with those ‘liberal values’... as do most of us
All that you said is true and in addition to that Russia has also the highest abortion rate in the world 2.6 times higher than the US.

Russia 53.7
USA 20.8
So tell me, how many people like watching their countries collapse throughout history?
Its normal for a Russian to feel sad about the collapse of the Soviet Union.
If America collapsed today from Civil War 2, plenty of Americans will be sorry about that.
