It’s doesn’t even matter if they move away. The things we want to tax them on simply can’t just move away. Gary puts it best, as always.

Not sure what you’re trying to say, honestly. Democratic values == evil communism?

In my mind, the idea of left politics is to democratize society as much as possible. Any type of Authoritarianism goes against that, including the idea of a single party with a single leader. It’s anti-democratic, and therefore does not fit into the category of leftist politics, even if they call themselves left. No racist is gonna call himself racists. And fashists neither.

Shitty opinions are not facts.

such as not trying to conquer the world

Imagine being so deluded as to try to frame the largest country on earth, Russia, as the victim here. How, according to your world view, have they become so big? Did the now-Russian ethnic minorities simply surrender their lands to be taken over by some Slavs in Moscow?

Honestly, you need to have a 10 minute conversation with a Russian to understand how utterly brainwashed they are. The majority of the Russians are rooting for an imperialist fashist.

Him thinking that this shit is okay does not make the situation better.
