@theguy64355@LocalEurofed A heavily sanctioned economy isnโt gonna be top 5 no matter what, so that doesnโt really help your case. Also, 90% of Russiaโs population is nationalistic, because we know our society is better than Norwegian society ever was.
@theguy64355@LocalEurofed Top 9 and 2 in both categories but pop off. Like I said, you donโt get to gaslight Russian society and call us inferiors and frauds. Just say you are Russophobic and move on.
@theguy64355@LocalEurofed The results are evident: weโre back to superpower status. With a strong and stable government (Putin, Stalin, Brezhnev, etc), we thrive.
@theguy64355@LocalEurofed Oh no you donโt get to gaslight us. The USSR was a fundamentally good idea that had to deal with numerous amounts of insubordination. Gorbachev gave in to that and bit off more than he could chew. Putin came along and singlehandedly saved the country from collapse.
@theguy64355@LocalEurofed Gorbachevโs and Yeltsinโs for cozying up to the West in the first place fully aware weโd get nothing in return, no Marshall Plan, nada.
