There is no comparison between Russia and the US. Nothing Russia has ever done even begins to come close to the atrocities US is committing around the globe. War on terror alone massacred over 6 million people. US is currently facilitating a literal genocide in Yemen, and starving Afghanistan after going on a murder spree there for two decades. Comparing Russia to this is frankly laughable.
The US can be worse than Russia…but that doesn’t make Russia good.
The point here is that the west has no place vilifying Russia. People in the west would do far better holding their own regimes to account rather than spending their time pointing fingers.
agreed, if by west, we mean governments. Just as anywhere people are more than that.
Of course, I’m strictly referring to the ruling class and their propaganda machine here.
