I see that you are Canadian, that’s cool. Beautiful country, Alberta ear Banff looks stunning and I want to visit.
Anyway I think you are oversimplifying views of the US and Russia. Yes we have some bad trends here in the US, but we always have. We are fighting to correct them.
Russia puts some window dressing and builds a few churches, but they they are a bad culture. Thuggish and brutal and run by oligarchs. They pissed away a real chance to change after the wall came down.
Russia in no way is morally superior to the US. The US does more good in the world than any other nation, its not even close.
And yes we will correct the bad stuff going on here.

That’s 1993 Russia which was a terrible period of economic collapse with the west conspiring to destroy it and carve up the corpse for the west’s oligarchs. Putin guided the country through 2 years of hyperinflation and used the oligarchs in the beginning. He then turned on them jailing or exiling them. Todays Russia is much different- its awash in cash and resources and after 83 years of continuous embargoes is largely immune to sanctions. The world needs Russias oil and food, not the wests pronouns and CRT. We are utterly exposed and dependent on globalism-especially to foreign energy, foreign fertilizer and electronic chips but especially for China to buy our debts. We will all find out too late that this western embargo was just accelerating the suicide. We’re going to experience real hunger and real cold in the autumn. I wish people would wake up from their normalcy bias and see the reality of what’s coming.
