    and i’m literally on the receiving end of US and european imperialism. the US sponsored a brutal military dictatorship in my country and on most of our neighbours, and still sponsors the plundering of our natural resources and workforce. shit, they tried to put a dictator in power in here recently, we barely escaped.

    modern-day russia doesn’t have as much influence throughout the world, nor does it have as bloody military by a big margin.

      What the U.S did was terrible, obviously. That should go without saying.

      Although, I’m pretty sure Russia does have influence, with all the troll farms and whatnot.
