no need i'm a happily married man, as compared to, just as a random example, a middle aged single ugly fat woman living with her mother on the second floor of her mother's house because she's as unsuccessful in life as she is unattractive to the opposite sex. just a random example tho, wouldn't expect anyone to take offense, especially any 30 year old dudes cosplaying in an obscure sub forum as a middle aged Asian woman.


Lol dude, seriously, you care about this internet thing way too much.

Political analysts describe Russia's political system as ''competitive authoritarianism'' or ''fake democracy.''


Competitive authoritarianism is probably the closest "short definition" for most of Russia. A poorly advised leader with high officials lurking in the shadows waiting for their turn.

Present-day Russia isn't communist. After the fall of the Iron Curtain, the country transitioned into unmitigated cutthroat capitalism during the 90s and from there quickly degenerated into the proto-fascist cleptocracy it is today.

the power lying with greedy oligarchs is the greatest hope we have they'll never fire a nuke. not much could cause a full stop of gas/oil/coal from Russia, but if anything could that's it. i doubt it would even take a week to cease all shipments.

In some ways its still reminiscent of its feudal past. Old ways die hard, and Russia was a 100 years late to the modern game.

With a weak government, corrupted Russia could leak/sell all its nuclear knowledge & even material to countries likes iran or nk
