Russian forces are continuing to deploy outdated military equipment to Ukraine to replace losses. The Ukrainian Main Intelligence Directorate (GUR) reported on June 9 that Russian forces are mining Kherson Oblast with mines from the 1950s to defendwww.understandingwar.org
Except Communism has nothing to do with this!Who can come up with the best definition of orcs?
Orrible Russian Communist Shitheads is my opening shot.
Ukraine fears West's support will wane as war with Russia rages on
After four months, officials in Kyiv worry that war fatigue could harm the chances of the West's resolve to push back as President Zelenskyy says people "want some kind of outcome".www.abc.net.au
Except that Russia's leader is behaving like a Soviet dictator...Except Communism has nothing to do with this!

You could also fill in "fascist dictator" or "p0wer-mad twatwaffle". Putin's behavior is much more nationalistic than communist. My sense is that he cares less about who controls the means of production than he does about who controls the entire damned nation.
I believe he actually longs for a revival of Tsarist Russia rather than the USSR ... just a personal opinion.
Agree with both of you. Ideology is irrelevant to this guy. I think he is just after power and the self-aggrandizement that it creates. I image a little Putin in the old Soviet days looking at the massive banners with Lenin and Stalin's faces on them, and thinking I want to be up there some dayYou could also fill in "fascist dictator" or "p0wer-mad twatwaffle".

Hence why he often talks about Peter the Great.

I actually think he loathed the Soviet regime. He may have have liked that the Soviet Union was considered powerful and feared, but I think he ultimately yearned for the czars to make a return. He enjoys the palaces and riches too much.
Given time, if he remained in power, I don't think you would see the hammer and sickle return. He would have already brought back the Soviet regime long ago if that was his intent. I think he is a dying man who realized his days of being able to bring back the Russian Empire are dwindling. He wants his bust up their next to Peter the Great, and to be known as the great czar who rebuilt the empire.
I don't think a bust is big enough for that guy's ego. Maybe replacing the largest onion dome at St. Basil's with a giant Putin-head would suffice for him.He wants his bust up their next to Peter the Great, and to be known as the great czar who rebuilt the empire.
