What the fuck are you on about?
The USSR imploded because it was a corrupt and violent kakistocracy
I don’t know that the US had anything to do with the coup, but it didn’t work anyway, and they were much more friendly with the anti-coup people than with the coup. I could be wrong but I thought it was by hard-liners who were opposed to Gorbachev’s reforms and wanted to keep the USSR together back according to its old principles instead of liberal reforms.
Nobody sponsored ultranationalism in Russia except by accident. The IMF and BIll Clinton sponsored gangster capitalism, which took off like gangbusters and defined the gruesome arc of the next several decades of Russian government. It’s one of the great sadnesses of the late 20th century, the promise of what could have been for the Soviet people in the wake of mostly peaceful anti-communist revolution simply getting replaced by more misery.
Lol
Nonsense. Stalin is the only person in history who truely knew how to deal with right wingerz.
Look around you everything have gone downward since we let the right wingerz live
Stalin is literally the closest thing we have to Adolf Hitler that isn’t Adolf Hitler. You realize Stalin did mass-scale ethnic cleansing? You also realize Stalin was ALLIED with the Nazis in the beginning?
So what? Americans did mass scale ethnic clainsing just last year
