Compare russia to the British and consider who is the bigger villain.
Can we not bother deciding who was the biggest nightmare, and instead focus on finding models for the best countries.
I am so sick of the “at least the USSR had…” or “at least China does…” conversation. Can’t we have a “Finland has high happiness, broad socialist protections, and a fast moving economy” kind of conversations.

The point is that foreigners influence elections all the time, all over the world.
Americans meddle all the time, but are the only one that start crying when it’s done to them.
