Apparently Putin's landslide victory means Russian morale is low.
Other bangers from this collective of intellectual giants include claims that the massive turnout victory for Putin in Russia in fact demonstrates "things are not well", "the economy is collapsing, "the military is resisting orders", and "the population knows he is a thief". Seriously they are literally writing this on Twitter...
for liberals to attack the actual problems with russian elections, they'd have to use criticisms of democratic countries which would resonate with their own population about where they themselves vote. a total mythology is required to replace actual russian history and current events because reality itself is i guess you could say pretty radicalizing vs information acquired via "economics" and capitalist press
That's not a problem. They can always fall back upon racist notions like how Asiatic barbarians are incapable of free thought while Western ubermensch are.
The west has democracy, and is democratic. Russia has democracy and is not democratic.
So it's not democracy that makes the democracy go, it must be something else entirely
