"Particular attention was paid to instances of deliberate dissemination of false information discrediting Russia’s domestic and foreign policies," the statement emphasized
I don’t really think a return to the destitution of mid-late 90s Russia is a good thing. It’s much better for the continuing trend of increased support for socialism in Russia to continue and win, not western-backed groups:
The majority of the population support the SMO, and even Putin is trying to appeal to soviet nostalgia in order to retain support. It’s a situation where people are unhappy with capitalism, long for socialism, but at the same time support their country in the Russo-Ukrainian War and support ties to socialist countries like Cuba, the PRC, and DPRK. There is opposition to Putin, of course, but it’s more of a case where the nationalists are critically supported and the nationalists have to appeal to the Russian left somewhat in order to not collapse. It’s an interesting dillema!
Good. Fuck Russia

How much of that reflects an improving assessment of the USSR vs a deteriorating assessment of the subsequent regimes?
