    Russia has no colonies. As the USSR, it was an anti-imperialist and anti-colonial force. After its dissolution, the economy imploded and is still recovering. It has had no opportunity to gain colonies like it had under the Tsar, even if they wanted to.

    NATO started as an anti-communist alliance, with terrorist operations like Operation Gladio. Now, it maintains its status as the strongest alliance of imperialist countries on the planet. It’s as “defensive” as the Israeli “Defense” Force is.

        The SSRs were not colonies, they were a part of the broad USSR as a socialist economy.

            Yes, they were not colonies and were indeed parts of the broad socialist economy.

                I’m a communist for free, I don’t get paid to be a Marxist-Leninist. In fact, I pay dues.

                    Nice bit of ableism, combined with anti-communism.

            Nice bit of ableism and conspiracy theorism there, a classic duo!
