> Mate, you want to tell me that a country that had 1/6 of all the resources of the planet collapsed into oblivious because of the Western sanctions and mean Western banks? I'm sorry, I'm not buying it. Are you talking about Russia? They seem to be on the upswing by all standards. Food is plentiful & inexpensive compared to the inflation that we see in America with rampant homelessness...while billions are sent to buy weapons for foreign countries. You seem quite emotionally agitated. > Authoritarian/Totalitarian structures always flop. Unfortunately, they also tend to screw millions of lives in between. They also like put the blame on others and gaslight. Like a crazy doomsday cult Gee...are you talking about Pax Americana Exceptionalism? With NeoCon/NeoLib crying about "human rights" while supplying weapons & escalating conflicts to genocide populations of brown people? > Oh mate... The so-called socialism is a much worse mafia which wouldn't even allow you to call them mafia. The way they disregard human life and any human morals would damage your mental sanity if you ever had to face it. I hope you wouldn't. I wish you all the best and a great life, and hopefully you would never have to face the evil that the socialism is. I'm glad that I don't live in a country controlled by Nazis, yes actual Banderite Nazis, brought in by a US backed coup...where young men & women are picked up off the street & sent to the front lines to die. All because the country is dissuaded from making a peace agreement by British & American politicians. Lets get real. This insanity needs to stop...or people will look for alternatives...which is happening as we speak. I hope we can focus on what is constructive again & be on the right side of history. The age of Colonialism is nearing its end.
