Even taken on its own terms, the notion that Russia is a beacon of traditional morality against the decadent West is a joke. When it comes to abortion, divorce, alcoholism, suicide, childlessness, Russia is as bad if not worse than most Western countries. And Assange and Snowden may have been mistreated, but they weren't murdered.

Arabs, Sunnis, Kurds and Alevis might dispute that. Still, women and religious minorities are undoubtedly freer in Iran than in the KSA.
No, but I am aware of the genocide against West Papuans.Are you aware of the Chinese genocide in Indonesia? And how the war criminals are heroes there?

Assange and Snowden had to flee as dissidents to escape the possible death penalty.
And yes, Russia isnt a country of tradiotionalism, but it suggests that Putin passed any policies that lead to the degenerate factors, which he did not.
I criticise that he did not combat these trends enough.
He achieved good results on alcoholism
And actively attacked trends of sexualization of children and a progressive definition of gender, equality and progress.

It is a bogus distraction method used to blind us, or at least stop us talking about, real inequalities of wealth and power, often caused by those very same California-based corporations. Never mind that a CEO may earn 200 times that of his/her cleaner, let's all be kind and say what our preferred pronouns are!

(1) Monopoly capitalism as we have now is precisely the opposite of true competitiveness - large corporations should be forcibly broken up and proper competition and markets could return (if they were ever there in the first place). (2) Whatever their many faults, Fascist regimes - Peronist Argentina, Falangist Spain and Portugal, Fascist Italy and even (ahem) Nazi Germany itself were more-or-less right about the economy - you privatise the small and the rural and socialise the big and the urban.

I believe that wealthy people have way too much money and that is unjust, but I'm not sure if more economic leftism is good idea as it could accelerate dysgenics. Maybe the wealth that is comes from taxing wealthy people should be redistributed to middle income people instead of low income people.
