No way? What are you even talking about? Russia today is way more capitalist than it was in the Soviet Union era! The U.S. could have played a huge role in shaping that, but they completely missed the mark by trying to do too much at once while at the same time treating Russia like it could never be part of the team.

They abandoned communism, but went kleptocracy, not democracy. What we saw was just a step in the looting.

Of course, Communism is just another kleptocracy.

Communism gave the revenue to those in power but the state maintained control of the capital. You couldn't take it with you, you had to remain loyal to the system. Putin has been seizing the capital, not merely the revenue.

“They weren't banging the drum about fascist dictator for life, imprison political enemies, hunt down us citizens, repeat of hitler, existential threat.”

I was. Who is “they”?
I’ve been mouthing those truths since the orange shitbag first announced back in ‘15.
Actually since the 1980’s not much has changed about him other than dementia.
Remember The Central Park Five? Remember the full page ad he took out?
He probably didn’t mean it though - they were never executed so no harm done, right?

Sometimes your unwillingess to read is mind-boggling. Seriously. It's RIGHT FUCKING THERE.

You think the left wing was happy with W winning re-election '04 or Trump in '16?

No, they weren't happy. But they also weren't preaching the same message in the lead-up. They weren't banging the drum about fascist dictator for life, imprison political enemies, hunt down us citizens, repeat of hitler, existential threat.

Duh, because W didn’t have the record of fondness for dictators nor did he fantasize about being one. Did you just wake up from 25 year coma?
