Yeah, privatization was the problem, and having lived through it personally, I know what things were like before Putin took over. Calling USSR a dying corpse striving for change is frankly absurd. USSR had problems to be sure, but liberalization was not the solution, and that's precisely what led to privatization and Putin's Russia today. USSR could've taken the route that China took and stayed communist. Liberalism is the actual cancer in Russia today.
Kek. Russia isn't cursed because it chosed the liberal course. It's cursed because it's deeply corrupted, just like China rn.
😂
Are you american or european? I'm russian btw.
I grew up in Russia, and my family moved in late 90s. I currently live in Canada, but I still have relatives in Russia and I'd like to think I have a decent idea of what things are like currently.
Seriously? I press X for doubt.
If you was that priveleged to migrate to Canada, you are one of those 1%-ers who don't know anything.
It's easy to push for communism when you are rich and safe. And one ticket to Canada alone now costs a yealry wage of an average proletarian. Did you walked there on your feets or are you a hypocrite?
I'm pretty sure someone mentioned your username to me before as a big fat idiot. They weren't lying. From what I could learn from your post history, you are a privileged fool who can't tell anything not only about Russia, but about the commoners life in Canada too.
u/yougthos, please, go the way russian warship went. I dismiss your every comment as irrelevant.
Yes, seriously. I grew up under communism in USSR, and I also lived through the utter hell of the 90s and I'll never forget that. My family was lucky to end up in Canada eventually, but we suffered greatly under liberalisation just like everyone else did.
I love how all libs like you know how to do is sling personal insults and grandstand. You are a truly morally bankrupt bunch. I have nothing else to say to you. It's a good thing your heinous ideology is dying out in Russia.
What ideology? From what I see around me, fascism is doing good right now. It's only communism and anarchism having troubles. And liberal ideology you try to pin on me stagnates too.
No, if you'd care to listen to out news, there's nothing even lib, it's all fascism, all hatred, and these fat fucks want to ban any speech against the regime, any abortions, any access to sites with a wrongspeak like the one I use to post that. We are going the way Best Korea went, and you are cool as long as you like Russia from Canada. And I won't suggest you to move there.
The ideology that leads you to support people like Navalny who openly advocate violence against minorities and immigrants. Actual communism continues to be popular with a lot of people in Russia, but of course anarchists will fight it tooth and nail while supporting people like Navalny.
Also, nowhere did I say I like what happened to Russia after communism was overthrown. Everything that happened after is an ongoing tragedy. However, at least there's a possibility to move towards a system like China after Putin is gone.
Once again I tell you Navalny dropped his nationlistic views to be an organizer of every oppositional take, and he didn't supported outright fascists.
USSR should've died for many reasons, the topmost reason being plutocracy at it's very head, literal thieves funneling money to their pockets, but you are blind to that I guess.
Once again, I tell you that I don't for a second believe that Navalny dropped his racist views, but he did update his branding so people like you could support him more openly. And hope you're happy with what replaced this USSR plutocracy you're moaning about. I guess now you get to openly support fascists like Navalny which USSR didn't let you do.
