Morality as an individual yearning for purity and salvation = Christianity.

Morality as a uniform top down law and weapon of the state = Stalinism.

Damn right Russia is not part of Europe, it seems to yearn for the paradise which is North Korea.

"Morality as a uniform top down law and weapon of the state = Stalinism."

Would you say the same thing of Cultural and Religious Conservatives in the US?

Russia is very unlikely to use morality as a weapon of the state. It's not needed when you have the GRU.

Besides how do you make morality a weapon?
